International Schools CyberFair 2004: Achieve & Unite!
Take Action to Improve Lives & Connect Communities
=> Register NOW!
=> Projects due March 20, 2004
International Schools CyberFair is an award-winning, authentic learning
program used by schools and youth organizations around the world. Youth
conduct research and publish their findings on the Web. Recognition is given
to the best projects in each of eight categories: local leaders, businesses,
community organizations, historical landmarks, environment, music, art, and
local specialties. This White House endorsed program encourages youth to
become community ambassadors by working collaboratively and using technology
to share what they have learned. Students evaluate each other's projects by
using a unique online evaluation tool.
CyberFair encourages youth to connect the knowledge they learn in school to
real world applications. Youth are inspired to "take action" in order to
improve their lives and unite their communities. Just as achievement is
action reaching fruition, the best projects showcase people and programs
that are actively providing solutions or solving problems.
Now in its 9th year, CyberFair has been described as the largest educational
event of its kind ever held on the Internet. This program has brought
together more than one million students across 100 countries. View past
winners and take a virtual journey around the globe to learn about people,
programs and their communities.
CyberFair now has affiliate projects throughout the US, Taiwan, Hong Kong,
Pakistan, the Philippines, Singapore, Malaysia, Poland, Mexico, Ghana and
Cameroon.
