We are halfway through the classroom portion of the course here at Jesuit. Today, the students practiced reading and using topographic maps and marine charts to calculate bearings and nautical miles, so we don’t get lost in the Virgin Islands….We have also been reading and critiquing recent research articles pertaining to marine science.
See the pictures below showing the guys using the iPADs to navigate marine charts and discuss an interesting research article on the ecological importance of viruses in the oceans.
