My last few days at DTU Aqua were a whirlwind of reviewing our progress, preparing several draft reports and my final seminar for the Centre for Ocean Life students and faculty.
The third seminar focused on writing goals, SMART objectives, evaluation and the resulting Project Description in the COSEE NOW Broader Impacts wizard. Several examples were prepared to share with the participants based on audience: professional development for K-12 teachers, working with media to develop a video, and an example regarding policy and government.

Following the seminar and lunch, Kirsten, Ivo and I held a debrief meeting to review our progress to date and plan the follow-up activities to ensure our work would continue upon my return to the US. I was fortunate to work with fantastic people - many thanks to my office mates Ivo Grigorov, Kirsten Thomsen, and Henrik Haslund!

The mid-afternoon surprise was a lovely farewell gathering in the castle dining room, complete with homemade cake provided by Mrs. Magic, Lis Vinther Elmsted! Then right back to work in developing a logic model to outline the work we've done and outline where we plan to go in the next few months.
As I prepared to leave my office in the castle for the last time, I reflected on my amazing experience - three seminars for graduate students and faculty, meetings with staff of the Copenhagen International School and the Den Blå Planet, a presentation to the communications group at the ICES conference, the TransAtlantic Ocean Literacy meeting, the EMSEA conference in Crete, and a visit to the DTU Aqua Shellfish Center! We'll finish the TOL meeting report as well as update the 2014 TOL Implementation Plan, and continue to refine the logic models developed for the Shellfish Center and the Centre for Ocean Life. Although I head for home, the good work will continue!
