IREEF

Immersive Realities for Environmental Education Facilitation (IREEF) IREEF’s mission is to understand the role of ocean-related extended reality (XR) – or “Ocean XR” – in marine education. The goals of this research are to: 1) assess the field of Ocean XR in relation to marine education and ocean literacy, 2) build a community of Ocean XR stakeholders (e.g., creators, researchers & educators), and 3) report our findings & recommendations through peer-reviewed publications and public engagement. IREEF was founded by Dr. Geraldine Fauville, Dr. Erika Woolsey, and Dr. Danny Pimentel
