Online Marine Species Instructional & Testing Module for University Students

Develop an online module to teach and test university students on marine species identification, required for acceptance into the Quantitative Underwater Ecological Surveying Techniques (QUEST) field school. The module will serve students not in the MOP system statewide and support learning for Kona, American Samoa, and mainland students through an equal online testing method. The module will also be available for others to learn marine species identification easily.
