Integrated Educational Animations introduce and explain difficult "theshold" concepts that students often find challenging, and use animations to illustrate the use of foundational and mathematical theories in current research.
In this video, Exponential Growth, Ecolog:IEA illustrates theoretical concepts in ecology using animation to teach other students and interested members of the public. The animation illustrates visually the mathematical foundation of population growth using the story of African elephant conservation in South Africa.

The release of new episodes aligns with topics being discussed in Bology 0420, taught by Prof. Jon Witman. Fellows use several animation and live videography techniques to develop interesting and appealing episodes.
