Midshipmen aboard the USNS Henson
MMC developed and instructed the U.S. Naval Academy’s first and only online course, Historic Shipwrecks, which focuses largely on the methods, technologies, and policies involved in the Ocean Technology Foundation’s Search for the Bonhomme Richard. The course integrated science, history, technology and engineering into a multidisciplinary and interactive learning experience for midshipmen. Under the tutorship of MMC President Melissa Ryan, five midshipmen participated in the 2010 and 2011 expeditions to search for the Bonhomme Richard in the North Sea.
