Is your learner ready to explore more about how marine science is a tremendous part of their surfing experience? In the second part of Surfing Science Camp, we'll dig deeper into the science behind why surfers are able to 'catch' waves, the different chemical factors and biological elements of marine life that play a role in a surfer's overall experience, and even discuss how surfers can change the world for the better by doing what they love the most. Science may not teach you how to stand up on your board, but learning more about the scientific concepts surrounding the workings of the world's oceans could help you become a smarter surfer and a better citizen of the sea! Join me on this 3-day journey to learn about the science of the ocean through a surfer's perspective. Topics Covered: Day 1: The Science of Wave Riding Day 2: Scientific Factors That Impact a Surfer's Experience Day 3: How Surfers Can Protect the World's Oceans Students will learn about these topics through engaging activities, short videos, and active discussions, along with a foundation of information on slides that I provide. The first Surfing Science Camp is not required to be taken prior, but preferred if possible. Please reach out to me if you have any questions. No other prior knowledge is required; just an excitement for the ocean and learning some of its fascinating qualities in the eyes of a surfer!
Learning Goals
Students will understand the physics and geology behind wave riding, the chemical and biological factors that impact surfers and their surrounding environment, and opportunities that are available to protect the future of the world's oceans.
