Together, learners will explore the foundational concepts of marine ecology through weekly, multi-media lessons hosted on Genially and Nearpod. Lesson material will include reading, videos and interactive games.  Lessons will be posted Monday morning 7 am EST.  Additionally, each week, learners will be presented with a short demonstration or simulation that corresponds with the weekly lesson objectives.   If learners choose to work toward a grade for the class these will act as homework assignments.  Assignments will be posted Thursday morning 7 am EST. 

📝For learners choosing to have their work assessed, the grading rubric is as follows: 
Weekly Discussion: 5 pts/wk = 20 pts. 
Weekly Quiz: 10 pts/wk = 40 pts.
Weekly Homework: 10 pts/wk = 40 pts. 
📝Progress reports will be provided during the 3rd week of class via private message to learners and parents.  All assignments will need to be turned in no later than 1 week following the last day of class. 

✔️Example Discussion Question: Share an example of a marine predator/prey relationship.  Compare and contrast how it against a terrestrial version of they same relationship. 
✔️Quiz questions are presented in a multiple chose format
✔️Example of Weekly Homework:  Create a graph of predicted population changes over time for one producer, consumer and omnivore in a marine habitat of your choice.  

Outline of class topics by week:  
🦈Week 1: Biotic Factors Effecting Marine Ecosystems
- the biosphere and the ocean
-marine niches
-environmental succession
🌊Week 2: Abiotic Factors Effecting Marine Ecosystems
- temperature changes
-salinity changes
-nutrient availibility
🏖️Week 3: Concepts in Review: Estuaries
-biotic and abiotic factors that effect estuaries
-human impacts on estuaries
🐠Week 4: Concepts in Review: Coral Reefs 
-biotic and abiotic factors that effect coral reefs
-human impact on coral reefs
-current research on mitigation and restoration of coral reefs

I will host an OPTIONAL 45 minute meetup on the LAST Thursday of the course.  The time of the meetup will be listed in the introductory post to the class section.  Learners are encourage but not required to attend.  During meetups learners will be able to ask questions, review their learning and meet their fellow classmates.
學習目標
Upon completion of this course, students will be able to: 

-Trace energy and nutrient flow with marine ecosystems.
-Describe marine species interactions.
-Explain the effects of physical  environmental changes on marine organisms including: wave action, salinity and temperature.
-Identify how abiotic and biotic factors affect specific marine environments.  
-Describe how human activity impacts marine environments.
-Explain how current research provides insight to mitigation and restoration of human impacts on the marine environment.

Welcome Parents and Students,

Thank you for taking the time to explore my courses!  Let me tell you a little bit about myself and the courses I teach on Outschool.  I am a mother of 3 amazing kids and a professionally certified science teacher.

As an undergraduate, I studied marine science and hold a masters degree in science education. My teaching experience ranges from the formal high school classroom to outdoor education programs. 

Marine science education is my passion in teaching and my area of expertise.  I have designed and delivered marine science educational content to students of all ages through recreation and homeschool co-ops. 

I have created my Outschool courses to be integrated and student centered.  I believe that this allows students to make connections with the content in a way that is relative to their lives.  Below you will find a more detailed description of my curriculum structure and operating procedures.  If you have any questions about the courses I teach or my methodology, please feel free to contact me!  I love connecting with new families! 

When I am not teaching on Outschool, I teach high school marine science in Florida.  For fun, I enjoy beachcombing and camping adventures with my husband and kids. .  

I look forward to seeing you in class!

Course Objectives and Standards: 
My curriculum is designed with targeted age ranges and skill levels in mind.  Please see the individual course description for more detailed information.  If your learner is outside the age range for a course, please contact me to discuss options. Please, note all learners enrolled in courses outside the age range without consultation will be withdrawn and refunded in full.  

Refund Policy: 
Courses follow Outschool’s Limited Refund Policy.  If your learner is unable to meet for class and it is outside the refund time window, learners may choose to watch the class recording or transfer to the next available section. 

Canceled Classes: 
In the unlikely event of a teacher-canceled class or platform outages, I will notify families within the classroom and via private parent message.  All learners will be refunded in full.
