We are involved in a project to create more ocean literacy learning opportunities with the sport of diving and the diving operators and professionals.

I wondered who on this ocean literacy list is connecting diving and ocean literacy specifically and could give some examples.

Thanks

Hi Peter,

After talking to you the other day I feel like I might be more clear on
what we do stewardship and ocean literacy.
this is a link to our overall stewardship :
http://rendezvousdiving.com/stewardship/
out ocean literacy efforts are mainly in our outreach and education part
http://rendezvousdiving.com/stewardship/education-and-outreach/
We talk about and show videos on various topics from bio diversity,
shark research and ghost net removal.
We are in the process of creating more underwater and stewardship videos
to make a series of Ocean Literacy Tools to help educated kids in school
but also the general public on ocean issues.

Hope this helps

Peter Mieras

Have you looked at Project Aware? It pulls in all kinds of information on diving and topics related to both. I use it quite a bit. They are able to tie both together.

A. Scott and Jeanette Johnson are divers/photographers--who have lived on Kwajalein in the Marshall Islands for over 20 years--and have done spectacular documentation of coral reef denizens in the traopical Pacific.  They are meticulous about documentation of names, locations, habitat and observations. They specialize in nudibranchs. Scott has also been documenting the progress of coral bleaching and the erosion of atolls due to oceans rising. Have a look at their website to see photos and video. They are a wonderful resource. Though they do not interact with the public, they are generous with their materials. 
http://www.underwaterkwaj.com
Scott has a terrific Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/Scott.Johnson.Kwaj/photos_albums

B. Also, "Reef Teach" is a company based in Cairns, AU that is totally owned, managed and operated by Paddy Colwell, a Marine Biologist and dive instructor. He gives marine biology courses to folks going for dives on the Barrier Reef and has always been a campaigner to preserve the mrine environment. His site has great links to ocean science articles and research.
www.reefteach.com.au

This is an article on coral spawning:http://www.reefteach.com.au/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/Reef-Teach-Times-13-Sept-2011-Coral-Spawning.pdf

C. Here's a really cool Facebook page: Underwater Macro Photographers, which lists its member photographers.https://www.facebook.com/groups/underwatermacrophotographers/members/

My specialty is littoral biology media, exploring life between the tides. Have done several videos on the 'zone' in the Pacific Northwest and have lots of footage of critters and kids discovering and observing. Have worked with the Vancouver Aquarium (Canada) and with Shawn Rowe at Hatfield Marine Science Center in Newport, Oregon.
Hope this helps, Kate

Greetings,

I teach a 100 level into Marine Bio course at Spokane Community college and am also a fairly experienced diver and even spent some time working as a DM.  When constructing lecture materials and presentations I try to utilize photographic images that I myself have taken while diving.  This allows me to tie the diving experience with the topic at hand, and is especially important when we are focusing on principle #5 (regarding diversity of life and ecosystems).  I also think that substituting textbook images for images that I've taken demonstrates to my students that the underwater world is more accessible then they think.  (Spokane is a 5 hour drive from the coast of WA)

I'd be happy to clarify or offer more details if need be.

Cheers,

We are involved in a project to create more ocean literacy learning opportunities with the sport of diving and the diving operators and professionals.

I wondered who on this ocean literacy list is connecting diving and ocean literacy specifically and could give some examples.

Thanks
