[HMDS] Can reporters wear flamingo shoes?
The answer, obviously, is yes.
Allow me to introduce our two 'embodied reporters' for Camp Global Kids, Lucky and Tecno. Both of these teens have posted to the blog before in one form or another. They've done write-ups of activities we've held at the island, written articles for the MetaVerse Messenger (a newsletter dedicated to SL), and they're officially reporting on the full goings-on of Camp GK in Second Life this summer.
By going through this process, we're giving these teens the chance to reflect on their experience in a public way, something that is often missing from youth-oriented activities. There's no question that as teens they're the ones who know if the the things we're doing are 'working' or not, and engaging them in the process of writing here will keep them reflecting on the many aspects of their experience both with each other, with Global Kids and with the medium of Second Life itself.
Looking forward to all your posts!
