A boatload of ocean science education opportunities that are knot to be missed!

| View in browser SEAS THE SEMESTER We're springing into 2021 with a new 360 experience and even more online education opportunities! January 28, 2021 Visit Website       PREMIERE OF OUR NEW GENERATION OCEAN: SHARKS 360 FILM! We're thrilled to announce the release of our latest 360 film Generation Ocean: Sharks. This short film tags along with Florida Atlantic University shark scientist Dr. Stephen Kajiura and his team from the Elasmobranch Lab as they study the remarkable annual migration of thousands of blacktip sharks along the Florida coast. Viewable with or without a virtual reality headset, the 360 film immerses viewers in a research expedition as the scientists take to both the sea and sky to study the migration and predator-prey relationships between blacktip and great hammerhead sharks. The film makes a fin-tastic virtual fieldtrip and supporting educational content, activities and lessons will be shared via our Educator Resources Portal in the coming months so stay tuned!       PANEL DISCUSSION ON SHARK SCIENCE & MIGRATION Join us for a livestream panel discussion on the blacktip shark migration on Wednesday, February 17 at 6 PM EST!   Our panel will feature shark experts from Florida Atlantic University and Florida International University, including Dr. Stephen Kajiura, Dr. Yannis Papastamatiou and Dr. Marianne Porter and Film Producer Kari Rosenberg.    Additional details are available here.       A NEW YEAR OF OCEAN EXPERT EXCHANGES We're pleased to announce that our Ocean Expert Exchange webinars in collaboration with the University of Florida Scientist in Every Florida School initiative are back for the spring and we've got an exciting lineup for you and your students!   We get underway March 11 at 1:30 PM EST with Laura García Barcia!

More Info         LAGOON DRIFT LANDLOCK CONTINUES... We hoped this update would be different, but owing to continued concerns over the COVID-19 pandemic and our desire to protect our staff, partners and the public, we've made the difficult but necessary decision to cancel our spring Lagoon Drift citizen science experiment.   We've got our fingers crossed that we'll be back and better than ever with a deployment this fall, so stay connected for our next opportunity to drift on!       THERE'S STILL TIME In response to the ongoing pandemic, high distance learning demands and public request, we have opted to keep our Educator Resources Portal and Seas the Semester/Summer Newsletters open to those not yet registered with ANGARI.   However, we do encourage you to register today (it's quick & free!) to ensure full access to all ANGARI Education has to offer!
