FOR INSTANCE, WE CREATED AN AWARD-WINNING OCEAN EDUCATION KIT CALLED "CORAL REEFS: A HYDROUS LEARNING EXPEDITION" THAT INCLUDES HANDS-ON LEARNING ACTIVITIES AND DIGITAL EXPERIENCES, DESIGNED FOR MIDDLE SCHOOL STUDENTS. ACCOMPLISHMENTS: WITH SUPPORT FROM NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC AND PRIVATE DONORS, WE HAVE BEEN ABLE TO DISTRIBUTE NEARLY 500 KITS TO STUDENTS AND EDUCATORS IN 20 DIFFERENT U.S. STATES. WE ALSO HAVE CREATED MULTIPLE "VIRTUAL DIVE" EXPERIENCES USING VIRTUAL AND AUGMENTED REALITY (VR/AR) TECHNOLOGY THAT HAVE BEEN VIEWED MILLIONS OF TIMES THROUGH ONLINE PLATFORMS AND IN-PERSON EVENTS. THESE EDUCATIONAL "DIVES" INCLUDE IMMERSE, AR REEF, EXPLORE, AND EXPEDITION PALAU. 83935 RESEARCH THE HYDROUS CONDUCTS RESEARCH ON THE EFFECTIVENESS OF IMMERSIVE VIRTUAL REALITY FOR MARINE EDUCATION WITH RESEARCH PARTNERS LIKE THE STANFORD UNIVERSITY VIRTUAL HUMAN INTERACTION LAB, THE UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, AND THE UNIVERSITY OF GOTHENBURG AND FUNDERS LIKE THE NATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATION, NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC, AND META.ACCOMPLISHMENTS: HAMILTON, J.F., KELLEY, B.Z., MONISMITH, S.G., KOSE, J.R.
