With the success of the first Camp Blog, the iSchools Project Management Office (PMO) is pleased to announce the opening of the application period for Camp Blog 1B, from June 12 to August 14, 2009. Camp Blog 1B will happen on October 16-26, 2009.
To join, interested teachers and students of iSchools Project recipient schools must answer all 4 essay questions found below:
1. Why should I be included in Camp Blog?
2. What are my experiences as a user of the web and other new media technologies?
3. What subject do I excel in? What specific topics do I like best about this subject?
4. What are my proposed strategies in maximizing the advantages of blogging for
teaching (if teachers) | learning (for students)?
Please observe the following guidelines in preparing your answers
· There should be a separate answer for each of the 4 essay questions.
· Each of the four essays must be short and direct-to-the-point. Ideally an answer must be less than 100 words long.
· The Camp Blog selection committee is more interested in the content of your answers rather than the form. Please make all your answers count.
· Previous participants of the first Camp Blog cannot participate in Camp Blog 1B.
· Deadline of submissions is on August 14, 2009. No late entries will be entertained.
· Please send your answers to your designated iSchools Project State Universities and Colleges (SUC) Coordinator. There will only be at most 12 applicants coming from each SUC Coordinator so please send in your entries ASAP. Applications
sent directly to the iSchools PMO will not be accepted.
· From the submitted list, iSchools PMO will then select 60 participants to join Camp Blog 1B.
· For questions, comments or suggestions, please contact
camp.blog.2009@gmail.com. We will not entertain direct submissions here.
