Upon completion of this class learners will be able to:
-describe the mechanisms of tide formation.
-describe the 5 ocean zones and how light is filters with in each zone.
-describe the formation of ocean gyres and the effect of wind on surface currents.
-describe the formation of sea ice.
-differentiate between sea ice and glaciers. 
-describe importance physical oceanographic process on marine ecosystems. 

I strive to create learner-centered, integrated lessons that relate content to students’ lives.  I believe that my educational background in the field of marine science, professional teaching degree and extensive experiencing developing/delivering educational programs for all ages, will generate a class experience that fosters learners' appreciation for our oceans and environment.   Please see my teacher profile page for more detailed information on my education and teaching experience.
