Our Programs Have Bite!
SeaTrek received the 2009-2010 Pinnacle Award for Outstanding Content Provider! This award, presented annually, is based on teacher evaluations submitted through the CILC website and recognizes outstanding performance by a content provider. This is the 3rd year that SeaTrek has received this prestigious award.
“Because the Pinnacle and other quality designations are based on direct input from teachers who have experienced the programs first hand, they are highly credible,” said John Ittlelson, CILC board member and Director of Instructional Technology for California Virtual School. “When teachers are selecting content to use in their own classrooms, they appreciate the guidance provided by these important distinctions.”

Stay Tuned...
Coming Winter 2011, SeaTrek will release Science Minutes, a series of short videos that teach to National Science Standards. These are great to prep students for testing! Topics addressed include climate, weather, cells, scientific research, seasons, tides, waves and much more! Science Minutes includes a DVD and classroom guide for each segment.
What teachers are saying about Science Minutes...
"The students learned information in a brief amount of time. The videos were well done and were high interest for students."

"I think the videos were great for "engaging" students in the lesson or reviewing concepts."

"The students indicated an interest by asking when we would be learning more & how many there were."

"Student scores increased from the pre-test to the post-test."

"Many of the students I work with have not learned much information about physical science. These videos increased & introduced them to new topics and made them aware of ideas that will be found on future tests."

SeaTrek Hits the Road!
