During the Coastal Dynamics program, high school students step into the shoes of coastal engineers as they determine how Crystal Cove State Park’s beaches are changing over time. During this multi-week program, participants build computer models to show how our coastline is changing, investigate the challenges that this creates for coastal enclaves like the Crystal […]
How can we protect our ocean from overfishing? Is the Marine Protected Area offshore from Crystal Cove State Park working? Your class can help us find out! During this integrated program, students help scientists study the Crystal Cove State Marine Conservation Area as they learn about different science careers and explore how communities can use […]
During Project Crystal Code, 7th-grade students are invited to explore decomposition and technology's role in the restoration of coastal sage scrub! During this multi-week program, students are introduced to how we can use technology to protect our wild places. Virtual Project Crystal Code builds on ideas from Project Crystal as participants design computer models and […]
During Project Crystal, 5th-grade students are invited to take part in ecological research in Moro Canyon! As your students help Crystal Cove Conservancy, Crystal Cove State Park, and UC Irvine study the best way to restore native habitats, they’ll learn about concepts like plant ecology, food web interactions, and how we can use science ideas […]
During the Trouble with Trash program, K-2 students are invited to take part in real environmental research at Crystal Cove State Park! As your students help Crystal Cove Conservancy, Crystal Cove State Park, and UC Irvine study the best way to protect Crystal Cove's beaches and ecosystems, they’ll investigate the seen and unseen impacts of […]
