Ocean Literacy Survey
July 29, 2015 by Marine Scotland Communications No Comments | Category Marine Directorate general, Marine News from other Organisations, Statistics
Work is currently ongoing to gather information on “Ocean Literacy” in the UK – understanding the ocean’s influence on you and your influence on the ocean.
A survey has been created, that is part of a research project and based on a framework developed in the United States, that intends to assist institutions in the UK in improving their techniques for imparting ocean related knowledge to the public. The survey contains 35 multiple choice questions and will take around 10 minutes to complete.
They are looking for as wide a range as possible of responses, so if you are interested in the oceans and finding out more, please get involved:
