Student Intern Program

Nortel LearniT is in the process of developing our Student Intern Program and could use your help. We want to design a program that provides students, grades 7-14, with hands-on experience in producing and distributing digital media. Some of the traits of our program will include: Working with other students to create group projects; Projects created must fit within one of the content areas we are establishing; Projects shall have an instructional/documentary objective tied to our core Discover iT curriculum; Projects should be both self - contained, and those that could constitute one program in a series of offerings.

One concept we are considering is to have each intern create their own 'bio' video as a means of introducing themselves to future interns working with Nortel LearniT and it's Centers and Charters. A follow-up may be to have these interns create a brief testimonial video when they are nearing the completion of their internship. See the Fraser Institute http://www.fraserinstitute.ca/studentcentre/intern.asp?tnav=1&scnav=2 for an example of how one program accomplishes this.

If you have any ideas or suggestions to help us structure our program to be of a benefit to both the kids participating and our content offerings, please post your comments.
