Data to the Rescue: Penguins Need Our Help!

Antarctica is a place that has had little human interference.  No one lives there permanently, and it teems with interesting marine life. In the Data to the Rescue adventure, your job will be to help Dr. Cimino understand what is happening to the penguin species on the Western Antarctic Peninsula. You will use your expert knowledge to create a Data Jam to help others learn and understand.

This is an AISL-funded project by Rutgers University that combines learning about polar regions with using real-world data.
