This ocean education kit was designed with Next Generation Science Standards, targeting middle school students, and includes a cardboard viewer, a 3D-printed coral model, four sets of activity cards, and a 122-page dive journal including 6 lessons that can be completed in 8 hours total, ideally spread across days or weeks. They are available for sale and have been distributed to some teachers for free as part of a national donation program. AccomplishmentsOver 65 kits have been donated or sold to teachers, museums, libraries, parents, and classrooms in 14 U.S. states. 0 ResearchDescriptionThe Hydrous leads research investigating the effects of immersive media on ocean science learning with partners at the Stanford University Virtual Human Interaction Lab, Harvard University, The University of Gothenburg, and the University of Oregon. AccomplishmentsThe NSF-funded project Advancing Ocean Literacy with Immersive Virtual Reality resulted in five peer-reviewed publications about the effects of Virtual Reality (VR) on learning, self-efficacy, and vection. Hundreds of learners from middle school to adult participated in this research. Queiroz, A. C. M., Fauville, G., Herrera, F., Leme, M.I.S & Bailenson, J. N. (2020, May).

Using Virtual Reality in Sea Level Rise Planning and Community EngagementAn Overview (20 Immersive Learning FrameworkDescriptionWith partners at Meta and Meridian Treehouse, The Hydrous developed an immersive learning framework targeting informal learners and educators. AccomplishmentsThis work supported improvements on the interactive VR experience, The Hydrous presents: Explore. This version of Explore was official selection for the Cannes World Film Festival, where it was the Grand Winner for Best Virtual Reality Short and was also selected for the Tokyo International Short Film Festival. It was also featured on the CBS show Mission Unstoppable, hosted by Miranda Cosgrove. This project also produced an evidence-based guide for learning with immersive technologies that targets educators and content creators, which has accrued nearly 3,000 reads on ResearchGate:Pimentel, D., Fauville, G., Frazier, K., McGivney, E., Rosas, S. & Woolsey, E.
