About this organization
Mission
The Marine Science Institute's mission is to cultivate a responsibility for the natural environment and our human communities through interdisciplinary science education.
About
The Marine Science Institute provides engaging and interactive hands-on adventures with San Francisco Bay Area marine life. Led by a team of expert marine science educators, these experiences impact students of all ages, inspiring respect and stewardship for the marine environment. We achieve this goal through innovative marine science education programs that: • Place students of all ages in direct contact with the natural environment; • Emphasize the interdependence of all living things, their connection to the physical environment, and the special responsibilities of humans to the environment; • Facilitate active learning through the use of observation, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills in a cooperative setting, and • Instill confidence, encourage involvement, and inspire accomplishment by providing positive role models.
