This past spring, interns from the Digital Video Technology Program at Suncoast Technical College – Sarasota Campus helped pilot test MARVEN during our Estuary Explorations program with Sarasota County Schools. Their support helped refine how MARVEN connects students to science in real time, ensuring smooth audio, video, and interactive features. Our thanks to Tyler and Javier for their help and the opportunity to learn along with them.
As the new Mote Science Education Aquarium (Mote SEA) opens, MARVEN will continue to expand our reach by showcasing new habitats and highlighting our conservation work with sharks, sea turtles, manatees, otters, corals, and more. We hope to continue offering intern opportunities next year.
We also anticipate several general volunteer opportunities this fall. Volunteers can support MARVEN by helping with program prep, tech checks, or simply promoting these virtual experiences to guests and community partners. If you are a Mote Volunteer and interested in finding our more, send an email to marven@mote.org.
