The Arkansas teachers that attended the 2007 Summer Teacher Institute:

"I learned so much at the Teacher Institute. The instructors were top-notch. I realized quickly that these teachers were the virtuosos who wrote the books, devised the labs, and designed the models and posters used in science classrooms by myself and my colleagues. Amazing. More from Amy Van Pelt
