"A student's interest in Science is correlated with the enthusiasm of their teacher/mentor and the experiences they share with their students. The Earth Mapping Laboratory in Partnership with the Exploratory puts the remote sensing tools in the hands of teachers and students.. let them run the side scan sonar, seismic gear, YSI sensors, collect the data, make maps and analyze them.. That's how they learn and thats what will get them jazzed about science as a career goal..." dougthegeologist..
