This section features educational resources developed within our projects, designed to bring the ocean into the classroom and help both students and teachers explore this topic in greater depth.
Marine environmental education is essential to understand the close and reciprocal relationship between people and the oceans that surround us. It also helps develop critical thinking skills and environmental awareness, enabling informed and responsible decisions in the face of present and future environmental challenges. At SUBMON, we work to improve access to accurate and reliable marine education, strengthening students’ connection with the ocean.
Below is a list of educational resources developed within our projects, which aim to bring the ocean into the classroom and enable both students and teachers to explore this topic in greater depth during lessons.
