Global Kids' Digital Media Initiative

Yay, week 2 has started with many exciting things lined up for this week. Week two means its business time!. Campers over the weekend planned and was told to think about their missions then to send it to Meghan GKID today/this week. Remember this means that campers if the most points on this mission earn an extra iPod Raffle ticket :)

One of the things i love about Global Kids and D.I.D.I. system is that they talk about the guidelines that people should follow, campers really like this way i think. 1) one mic - makign sure everyone has a chance to share, 2) participation - you are all doing it! and 3) safe space- you are disagreeing respectfully.

Review of day 6 - week 2

* Meet and greet (where campers teleported in)
* Brief summary of what campers will be doing today
* Campers went over to Global Kids event area to do activity 1 which was to talk about peer pressure, self esteem, Behavior, Environment, reasons about this topic
* Campers teleported to the Coffee House on D.I.D.I. Island to do the second activity which was to create an action plan - which will be a series of notecards that you will fill out. Each notecard will have a focus
* Campers were asked if they have a rough idea of a venture they would like to do, many had a idea, many did not which is alright and understandable
* Example of a venture: 1 & 2. the venture idea is to build a ‘ride’ in TSL that teaches about the body. 3. that ride will help thecommunity by educating young people about the affects of things like smoking on the body, 4. this one is health related because it’s teaching about how to keep your body healthy 5. could be personal - coudl be that the person might have had a relative with lung cancer etc
* Campers had to complete a venture notecard, then to give feedback afterwards
* We think that (gkids & mentors) the Campers are starting to have GREAT and DIVERSE venture ideas, it looks like campers ventures will be very succsessful and will (hopefually) get public backing and support
* End of day 6 in week 2
