"I left the workshop feeling both inspired with creative approaches to science radio and armed with a formidable set of tools to help me produce better science programming."

"The effects of the workshop are clear. I am able to do pieces on science faster and more easily, with greater confidence and (I think) with better results."

"One of the most valuable aspects of the Science Literacy Workshop was the opportunity to make connections with other journalists and experts."

"As a liberal arts major I confess I was worried I'd have a hard time getting my head around physics, statistics, DNA, gene splicing and biotechnology. But you presenters made it all very understandable, and dare I say it, fun."

"The organizers made considerable effort to make our time as productive yet comfortable as possible."

"I can honestly say it was one of the most valuable weeks of training I have had as a journalist."

"I am a better reporter because of what I learned at that workshop, [and] I use what I learned there almost every day."

"I wanted to email you because, last month, a series I produced aired called God, Darwin & Dixie. It was about the battle over evolution here in Alabama. It was inspired by my time in San Francisco and I would've never have thought of doing the stories (or built up the gumption to do them) had I not attended the workshop."

"I feel more qualified to cover stories in all areas of science... I now have more confidence in interpreting data presented in professional papers, newspaper articles and reports..."
