Using funding from the Elementary
and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) Title III, Project Introspection
produced a variety of materials on various aspects of the
history and culture of the U.S. Virgin Islands. The goal "to
coordinate units of work on the Virgin Islands and Caribbean
from all available sources had a two-fold objective: 1) to
discover and reproduce such material for instruction, and
2) to provide a medium for wide dissemination of this material
for the benefit of all Virgin Islands school children and
ultimately the entire community."
Titles in the Project Introspection series include:
Beautiful
