Since 2003, students from San Andres have been taking part in this internet discussion with students from schools in other islands around the world. Many of the schools do not have internet access for their students, and so often the students have to use the CORALINA office. They have produced some very interesting articles and responses, e.g. in 2003 a student from CEMED School wrote a very interesting article on preparing and cooking certain species of fish that are usually rejected. (To access the article the username is view and the password is only)

Efforts are now underway in 2005 to involve students from the islands of Old Providence and Santa Catalina. Here similar problems relating to access to internet will arise.
