Killer Snails
"A DEEP DIVE into Remote Multi-Modal Science Learning"

As the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic spreads across the globe, there is an urgent need now more than ever for learning initiatives that make science both approachable and relevant to K-12 learners to support and inspire interest in STEM and STEM careers. While we are in a dire situation, we have an opportunity to meet expectations by providing engaging content that educates and excites STEM learners using innovative approaches like BioDive, our multimodal dual Hybrid/VR immersive learning experience for middle school students. In this talk, Chief Scientist Dr. Mandë Holford and CEO Jessica Ochoa Hendrix will discuss how BioDive can be used by educators and students. BioDive, which is aligned to NGSS standards, combines mobile virtual reality and online digital journaling to enable students to experience the life of a scientist. In BioDive students take on the role of marine biologists investigating the delicate ecosystems of venomous marine snails. Throughout their expedition, students observe, discover, and hypothesize about abiotic and biotic factors that impact marine biodiversity. BioDive is designed to support educators and learners using real-time educator assessment, and compelling narrative about our planet and our lives. Killer Snails is providing free access to BioDive for the rest of the school semester.
