Catch Up on Student's Blogs

One of the interesting aspects of the Student's LIVE program is to see how the students begin to "own" their work. Even during the Christmas break, you can start to see how some of the young reporters are figuring out their "voice" and their perspective on the 2010 games.

You can take a look at the collated blogs by going to http://www.netvibes.com/studentslive#Student_Blogs

Orientation Meeting Completed

Congratulations to all of the students who survived their first day of orientation. The student reporters were challenged to think about how to report the Winter Games from their perspective, while using the tools that they are most comfortable with.

There was quite the debate about facebook vs blogging vs twitter. In the end, our reporters will be choosing the medium that best suits the situation. Their knowledge of how to connect with others and who to connect with added to their creativity and fresh perspective will proove to be a very interesting project.
