We are very excited to offer virtual classroom experiences to bring the Deep Bay Marine Field Station to you! Join us from the comfort of your classroom to learn about all the ocean has to offer. Tour the station, get an up-close look at oyster dissections, or discover the amazing adaptations of our resident critters. Whichever experience you choose, we are ready to tailor it to you and your students.
What are the benefits of virtual learning?
Our virtual experiences allow teachers and homeschoolers to learn from the comfort of their classroom or home. Students still get the value of new and exciting experiences, without the difficulties of travel and social distancing. Virtual learning also provides opportunities to see parts of our station that are normally closed to the public.
