the project "adopt a float"
adopt a float is a multidisciplinary educational program for the school audience of all levels around the world. This program creates the opportunity to discover the global ocean and how crucial its study is to better understand and protect it. It offers students a scientific, cultural and civic approach to the Ocean.
The program is based on the adoption of an underwater robot of the profiling float type. Once adopted, the classes join the Ocean Voyagers community and embark on a scientific adventure throughout the schoolyear!
The adopt a float adventure can be experienced in different ways:
- Tracking of the float and exploitation of its data: Ocean Voyagers can follow the scientific journey of their robots. They can familiarize themselves with the scientific data collected which is accessible in real-time on an interactive map shared with scientists. They can also use educational resources to study marine sciences.
- Meetings and exchanges with professionals from the world of scientific research: in the classrooms or remotely, our scientific team facilitates workshops on various topics related to the Ocean.
