Ok, here goes... after spending almost an hour setting up the design of my blog - I am finally ready to share a little.
This summer, TECH CORPS Ohio is partnering with Lead the Way to host its first ever Summer IT Work Camp. There are 30 students from around Franklin County enrolled in the program. The students are 14 to 18 years old and they attend work camp Monday - Friday, 8:30am to 12:30pm. We have hired two terrific instructors: Ms. Nneka and Mr. Drew! They are absolutely great with our students (and I think the students think so too!) The students will learn about software engineering, computer programming, informatics, as well as job readiness skills. Each day the students spend one hour receiving math and reading tutoring and did I mention that these students are also paid for their time? This is a pretty cool program and I am pleased with how things have gone to this point.
The students are blogging each day about their experiences and next week they will setup their Avatars in Second Life. Well my other work calls, so see ya lata' alligata'!
