??Finally stateside after an amazing week in the ?????????????? ???????????? ?????????????? for our ???????????????????????? ???????????????????????????????-??????????????????? ??????? ????????????????????????? ??????????????????????.???100's in the BVI got to experience "?????????? ???? ????????," a 4-minute VR journey from river to reef, teaching us how our choices on land shape ocean health ?? . Created by the amazing team at The Hydrous & the #OECS, we conducted multiple studies to examine VR's potential for marine education and building ocean connectedness. From government officials and college presidents, to local fisherman and elementary students, it was incredibly moving to see how this virtual dive impacted users of all ages and occupations. More to come ?? Thank you to the amazing team on the ground: Erika Woolsey, PhD, Géraldine Fauville, Amy Wentzel, and Danny Moonie for being an absolute pleasure to work with. A legitimate honor to call you friends and colleagues. Thanks to the wonderful folks at H. Lavity Stoutt Community College for providing a space to share the power of immersive storytelling, and for the other exhibitors for sharing their incredibly important work. Even got to take a shot at being a reporter ?? Also BIG thanks to Wesley Della Volla for the tech that enabled the synchronous virtual dives to even happen!
