CoExploration has partnered with the Bermuda Biological Station for Research Station on several distance learning projects: Joint Partnership with Florida International University
Coral Camera Web-site
BBSR and Florida International University Classroom BATS (Bermuda Atlantic Time Series) is a National Science Foundation-funded program which is designed to help educators effectively use web-based ocean resources in
their curriculum development and teaching. Classroom BATS links BBSR scientists and data with prospective science teachers in the College of Education at Florida International University. This link is mediated via a virtual campus run by
CoExploration. The goal of Classroom BATS is to create an on-line learning environment that allows science teachers to use real ocean data to conduct inquiry-based learning in their grades 6-12 classrooms.

Coral Camera and Coral Web site project The Richard & Rhoda Goldman Fund provided a grant to the Bermuda Biological Station for Research to work with CoExploration. Together we will develop Web-based
curriculum resources on coral reefs using a Web-based camera that will be placed on the coral reefs of Bermuda. The camera is the keystone of a reef education program that emphasizes the importance of corals on a global scale through
interactive, Web-based learning. The

We have several resources that maybe of interest to anyone interested in the story of Nonsuch and the challenges of island habitats.
