At BIOS, the heart of the educational journey is experiential learning opportunities that provide students with practical experiences and opportunities to hone their technical and interpretive skills. We created BIOS DataBytes to educators around the world bring ocean data into the classroom and provide these transformative experiences for their students using real-world data and applications.
BIOS DataBytes is a digital resource of curated oceanographic and atmospheric datasets and supporting media for educators. These resources support educators in overcoming the challenges of working with databases and large data sets by making them accessible and specifically tying them to larger ocean and atmospheric phenomena.
