Ocean 180 Town Hall and Video Showcase


Session ID#: 11239

Session Description:
To connect ocean scientists with students around the world, in 2013 COSEE Florida launched the Ocean 180 Video Challenge.  Ocean 180 encourages scientists to use video to share their latest discoveries with students and the public.  Participants submit 3-minute video abstracts summarizing the findings of a recent paper and winners are selected by middle school students all over the world.  This Town Hall targets scientists and educators and will highlight Ocean 180 as an effective broader impact strategy.  It will include a panel discussion on effective video storytelling, a screening of the 2016 finalists, and an announcement of the winners.
