A new service called <a href=\"http:\/\/www.seaharmony.info\">seaHarmony<\/a> matches lovers of the scientific method in different fields of marine research with classroom educators, managers and community groups to help foster new collaborations.<\/p>\n<p>Marine scientists log into the webpage and create a profile detailing their field of research, availability and the level of commitment they&#8217;re willing to put into education activities or collaboration. Similarly, educators or resource managers also make a profile indicating their science interests, age\/grade level of their audience and what kind collaboration they might want with a scientist. Then, seaHarmony matches scientists with educators and managers that have similar interests in topics and levels of participation, facilitating interactions with a built-in messaging system and fostering innovative and fulfilling partnerships.<\/p>\n<p>A <abbr>UH<\/abbr> marine science research professor added, &ldquo;I think it&#8217;s a great way to find opportunities and put people together.&rdquo; With a little bit of technology and a lot of community involvement, the seaHarmony site promises to be a big success for the field of marine science.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/article.php?aId=5684\">Learn more about seaHarmony<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Helping educators and community groups meet the marine scientists of their dreams.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[26],"tags":[262,9],"class_list":["post-15925","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-community","tag-marine-science","tag-uh-manoa","entry","has-media"],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15925","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/16"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=15925"}],"version-history":[{"count":14,"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15925\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":130208,"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15925\/revisions\/130208"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=15925"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=15925"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=15925"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
