We were able to appreciate where they were coming ; Five days into the workshop, the group took an afternoon to go over resource materials Lundie and Gonzalez had gathered. The books and activities selected could be adapted to science classes at almost any grade level. When the materials were not directly ap- plicable, the texts ignited new ideas for different projects. The story doesn't stop with these teachers in that classroom. Many of them plan to use the in- formation from the workshop to in- fluence others in their school or area. "I'm going to present a mini-Sea Grant, Puerto Rico workshop to my faculty," says Rousseaux. "I want to share it with my whole school. I'm going to take the materials I have to a central place where they can be ; "In my school," says Maritza Febo of Rio Piedras, Puerto Rico, "I plan to get my fellow teachers ; She wants to share her specimen collections and pictures from the workshop with them. In addition, some of the Puerto Rican teachers are planning to meet with members of AMPEN, a marine and environmental educa- tion organization, to tell them about their experiences and share the materials. Through AMPEN, they'd like to develop a network of marine educators in Puerto Rico. Lundie was the match that lit the blaze of enthusiasm in these teachers. In one week, her ideas, encouragement and confidence es- tablished new leaders in marine science education. From here, they'll take the flames and spread them to their students and other teachers. And so long as Lundie's around, there's little chance the fire will go out. "I don't think that anybody could have put more into this workshop," says Kearns, "or that we could have gotten any more out of ;. Please note that these images are extracted f
