Jean-Michel Cousteau's Ocean Adventures |
« back |
REA served as the evaluator of educational outreach activities for a new six-part KQED series called Jean-Michel Cousteau’s Ocean Adventure. In the program, Jean-Michel Cousteau and his diving teams explore an array of natural phenomena, investigate little known territories and ecosystems hundreds of feet beneath the ocean's surface, and come face to face with the friendly and ferocious inhabitants of the deep. The goal of the educational outreach activities, including workshops and "Questing" outdoor activities, was to increase awareness of and engagement in science, environment, and nature activities. REA gathered information on the impact of the project’s components on educator practice and student learning.
