Connect
The Virtual Field is a collaboration among students of all ages, university and K-12 instructors, field stations and marine laboratories (FSMLs) and technical experts. Here are a few ways to connect with this community, give feedback and share ideas.

Access to Field Experiences – University faculty, field station and marine laboratory staff, and technology experts share ideas on ways to enhance student learning using virtual field trips. The learning community is funded by a National Science Foundation (NSF) Research Coordination Network Planning grant.
