Immersion Learning

I would like to take this opportunity to announce that I have added a new element to this Blog - Immersion Learning  - "Providing exciting, real-world exploration programs for kids".

"In 2002, Dr. Robert Ballard and Dr. Stephen Coan founded Immersion Learning™ — a non-profit science education organization that brings ocean adventures and discoveries from Mystic Aquarium & Institute for Exploration, the University of Rhode Island and the National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration to kids in classrooms, after-school settings and informal learning arenas.

In our constantly changing world, Immersion Learning™ helps students understand the positive roles that science and technology play in their everyday lives. Immersion exposes students to ongoing scientific expeditions in an effort to ignite their interest in real discovery and learning."

Click on the red "Immersion Learning" label on the right and you are brought directly to the site.  Tomorrow, December 3
