Diving into Education: ROVs, Research Vessels, and Real-World Learning

In this episode of the American Shoreline Podcast, hosts Peter Ravella and Tyler Buckingham embark on a journey exploring the intersection of marine education and environmental stewardship. Tyler shares his experiences with the Blue Robotics Education Initiative, highlighting his recent expedition aboard the NOAA research vessel Shearwater to the Channel Islands National Marine Sanctuary. This trip, part of the LiMPETS program, offered Tyler a unique perspective on how ROVs can revolutionize high school education beyond traditional robotics and engineering classes. The episode then shifts to a broader discussion on climate change adaptation with Peter sharing his latest thoughts on this critical issue. As the episode winds down, both hosts reflect on the year 2023, sharing their personal and professional growths and looking forward to another year of coastal and ocean dialogues in 2024.
