Educational Materials
The second major focus is educational materials. Since students are becoming
more and more technologically saavy, more advanced topics are being offered
at many high schools and colleges. However, sometimes it is difficult
to find resources. Thus, here I offer educational materials, lesson plans,
and links to those who wish to educate themselves or their students about
Cuba's landscape history, current status, and remote sensing projects
involving Cuba.
