Bridging the Pacific Ocean: Using Oceanography to Make Cultural Connections
As part of a Fulbright Memorial Fund experience, my students have been studying about the Japanese maritime culture. We are working with educators in Onomichi Japan to develop a better understanding about the world�s ocean. Our students communicated with one another via student created web sites, exchanging email, and videoconferencing. They discussed the ocean�s effects on their lives and validated global connections, creating a deeper understanding for our world ocean.
