For many scientists, engaging a diverse group of students is a priority, such as in these projects:
Informal Science Institutions
Informal science institutions such as aquaria and science museums are great places for scientists to do Education and Outreach:
Some scientists focus on developing curriculum directly with formal educators:
Working closely with government offices and coastal resource managers is an outgrowth of their research for some scientists:
Students – Grad/Undergrad
While most scientists also teach, some choose to collaborate more closely with their students in a variety of outreach projects:
High school students enjoy working with ocean scientists in their labs and at their field sites by participating in these projects.
Elementary students get exposed to ocean science concepts by working directly with scientists in these projects:
Web-based projects offer a wide variety of audiences the opportunity to learn about ocean science:
Working with ocean scientists gives citizens the opportunity to participate in real research:
Ocean science is now a global enterprise for many scientists:
