Since the Four‐Dimensional Ecology Education (4DEE) framework was endorsed in the fall of 2018 by the ESA Governing Board, activities of the nine‐member 4DEE Subcommittee have focused on developing a self‐assessment rubric, a guide for assessing student learning, support for majors and non‐majors courses, and a comprehensive report. Together, these resources will advance implementation of the 4DEE framework. The subcommittee is also planning to form communities of practice and host online conversations in support of education innovation by all members of the ecological community.
