| Hello! My name is Sunshine Kapusta and I am the web author of this site. I have a degree in Environmental Education and Interpretation from the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point. When the Central Wisconsin Environmental Station (CWES) offered me the opportunity to coordinate this project I saw it as a great opportunity and challenge. Web based environmental education is a fairly new phenomenon with many exciting possibilities. Over the past year I have developed a CD-Rom for teachers to use in the classroom, this website, and training modules for staff at the Environmental Station. I hope you enjoy the site and if you have questions or comments please contact me at skapusta@uwsp.edu |
