This seminar is educational for anyone, even non-education or science people. The speakers explain what an eclipse is and why they are significant. They then provided suggestions on how to safely watch the two upcoming eclipses. Lastly, they suggested fun activities for students to do when preparing to watch the eclipses. Overall I enjoyed attending this seminar and would highly recommend it! - Cassidy Staudt, Wartburg College
