ED34B:
Novel and Creative Outreach Methods and Models II Posters
Session ID#: 9881
Session Description:
Recent findings in marine research, advances in marine technology and marine conservation efforts are hot topics to enhance ocean literacy. Manifold outreach activities link such topics with life-long learning concepts; as much as 90 percent of learning takes place outside the classroom. Using innovative science communication techniques and tools, ocean scientists and educators reach out to a wide public to raise awareness and knowledge of ocean topics.
This session seeks to include cutting-edge and creative STEM programming in- and outside the classroom. We invite presentations highlighting interactive educational experiences and outcomes in visual arts, literary and performing arts, with new streams (e.g. serious/educational games), and with innovative techniques that connect and engage the public on highly relevant ocean topics. The session welcomes experiences at the interface of science and arts, exciting uses and potential of new technology and social media, examples of successful programs based on an interaction between formal and informal educators/approaches, partnerships between scientists and marine science communicators as well as training for marine informal science educators. Presentations may also include strategies that reach large numbers of people, techniques for reaching traditionally underserved audiences, challenges and impacts of particular programs, new resources and upcoming opportunities.
