Project Conclusion: The program built familiarity of online resources and resources among pre-service teachers; ability and willingness to adapt FLMNH resources to individual classroom and state curricula; promoted awareness of using science topics to teach non-science topics; increased attendance priority and developed regular participant return ("alumni").
Project Relevance: This program built the foundations for lasting partnerships and relationships between the FLMNH and the teaching community for years to come.
