In November 2016, American skipper Rich Wilson will set sail in the Vendée Globe 2016: a solo, non-stop, around-the-world sailing race, departing from Les Sables d’Olonne, France. Rich’s motivation in participating in such an extraordinary challenge is to excite and engage students in learning, by connecting them to live, global, real-world adventures. His online education program, called Ocean Challenge Live! will be updated with fresh content, including: 

- Daily: Ship’s Position & Log; Audio Report; Sleep & Asthma Data
- Mon-Wed-Fri: Q&A with Skipper & Experts, Photos & Videos
- Weekly: Essays by Skipper & an Expert on the Curriculum Topic of the Week
- Forums: Online, interactive, moderated forums on weekly curriculum topics allow students to comment, and to interact with peers,
