Comment on this resource
The Marine Science Pictionary is a lexicon of basic terms which were used during the problem-based learning experiences on the RV "Connecticut". These were used by students from the American School for the Deaf who were participating in the Classroom of the Sea program. The Pictionary includes marine science terms in alphabetical order, pictures (some animated), written definitions, video representations of signs where available, or an indication that fingerspelling is to be used.
