Give your students a clear, scaffolded pathway to understanding how scientists quantify biodiversity. This printable/ digital worksheet introduces four major indices (Simpson’s D, Shannon-Weiner H′, Species Richness, Pielou’s J′) through student-friendly explanations, a comparison chart, and real-world data-analysis scenarios. Built-in “Think & Respond” prompts and application problems push learners beyond memorizing definitions to interpreting ecological data like working biologists. Stand
