Global Virtual Classroom (GVC) Volunteer/Intern Project
The purpose of this GVC Volunteer project is to research and identify schools, teachers,
parents and students to participate in the Global Virtual Classroom program during the
next (2009/2010) school year. There are two programs that we currently offer: the GVC
Contest and the GVC Clubhouse.
How
This project can be completed through researching and obtaining the names of teachers;
schools; school boards; associations; clubs; youth organizations; local, city, state,
provincial, federal, and/or national government organizations; departments of education;
and various NGO’s in your area or any other region of the world. Once you obtain these
names and contact information, we need you to contact the people form these
organizations and invite them to participate in our GVC program. You can focus either
on a location you are familiar with (like your home city) or on a completely new area of
the world that you would like to learn about. This research can be done through your own
personal network, through online research or through meetings with people and/or
obtaining referrals to others. Once you identify potential organizations or individuals, you
can send copies of the GVC program information to them or meet with them personally
to present information on the program. (By the way, contacting and meeting with people
may also give you an opportunity to develop new networks, and where appropriate
develop future employment contacts).
Our objective is for you to help us recruit people to sign up for and participate in the
GVC program for the next school year. They can do this by going to our website to sign
up for the program through our online registration process. They can also sign up to be
placed on our GVC email list.
Volunteers
Once you decide that you want to be one of our GVC Volunteers or Interns, please
register with us by sending us an email with the following information: (your complete
name; city & country of residence; email address; phone contact information; your age;
and the location in the world that you would like to target your work).
Once you are registered, we will contact you by email and your name will go on our
website as a GVC Volunteer. We will send you information on the GVC project and
resource materials and give you access to our GVC Volunteer Blog. The Blog will be
used to communicate with you and for you to network with us and other GVC volunteers.
We also ask that you keep us informed about the progress of your work, tell us about
your successes, and tell us how we might be able to assist you with ideas and/or provide
additional information.
