Hi all! My FLVS teachers have been forwarding me emails about how they've seen me in their teacher newsletter from their President and CEO, about the DOTCOM program! It's so great that my teachers have provided me so much support!
This is one email from my SAT course teacher that she sent to our entire class, with the article part:
Subject: Kudos to a Classmate!

"FLVS Students Inspire Civic Action through Social Media
Four FLVS students were selected from a national pool of applicants for a new media literacy initiative sponsored by the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs of the U.S. Department of State and implemented by Project Harmony International. Katie K, Jessica B, Alexandra T and Michele P are current FLVS students who will be part of a 30 member U.S. team to participate in an 18-month on-line training program for media-savvy and civically-engaged Armenian, American and Azerbaijani youth. The goal of DOTCOM (Developing On-line Tools for Civic Outreach and Mobilization) is to help students gain media literacy skills and create socially conscious media that will impact communities across the U.S and the Caucasus. Among the 90 students involved, ten students from each country will be selected to showcase their work in 2010 at a regional media conference in Tbilisi, Georgia attended by representatives from UNICEF, youth NGOs and media organizations.
Please help me in giving a big WHOOSH to Katie for being selected for this project!!! Congrats, Katie:) "
GOO FLVS!
