2026 INNO SUMMER INSTITUTE
Under the Sea
Course Description
Did you know that more than 80% of the Ocean is unexplored? That the ocean contains 99% of Earth's living space? This course will allow students to explore the science, stories, and mysteries of our planet’s largest ecosystem. Along the way, students will be able to explore the diverse layers of the ocean, analyze food webs, and explore bioluminescence. For the final project, students will be able to create their own ocean in a mason jar, and step into the shoes of a marine biologist!
