Communicating Science with Jill Pelto & Maine Maritime Museum

About this video: Art is such an important tool to communicate complex ideas. In this video, students will learn how to connect scientific data and artistic storytelling by plotting real-time temperature data from the Gulf of Maine and find creative ways to visually communicate the importance of this data to a broader audience.
