| Marine
and Aquatic Science Education Facilities in Southeast Florida |
Can't
make it to the Smithsonian Marine Ecosystems Exhibit? There
are countless, quality marine and aquatic science education
resources in Southeast Florida. Many are listed below. Links
will open in a new window.
If
you have a facility that provides on-site or outreach school
programming in the marine or aquatic sciences, and you would
like to see it added to the list, send an email to Laura
Diederick (diederick@si.edu).
Thanks to David Moore of Miami-Dade College and other members
of the Florida
Marine Science Educators Association's Southeast Region
for their help in compiling this list.
