The scientists, educators, and students reflected on the program's benefits:

"It lets you do physiological research with high school students.....Easy to make the bridge between heartbeat in  crabs to heartbeat in humans." (Tom Oliver, S.E.A. Program)

"Provides an intro to experimental methods and an awareness of environmental contamination." (Shaw Bamber,  University of Plymouth)

"It develops an interest in the girls in the scientific process."
(Judy Lemus, Sea Grant)

"...it's very practical and do-able. The girls can actually do the experiments themselves." (Lynn Whitley, Sea Grant)

"It teaches kids to use real data and to solve real problems...teaching them to ask questions"
( Phyllis Grifman, Sea Grant)

"It ties in the fact that all living species are alike in many ways."
 (Tessa, program participant)
