Educators enhance their teaching strategies, gain new skills, and collaborate with like-minded educators and youth media experts to enable young people to express themselves using digital tools and to create media with a personally meaningful purpose. Educators from participating sites join a global network and exhibit and share youth-created media projects, including videos, documentaries, photojournalism, animations, websites, and multimedia. iEARN joined the Adobe Youth Voices program as a founding partner in 2006, and now manages and supports the program in over 16 countries around the world. SchoolNet South Africa coordinates this programme and has received sponsorships for twelve teachers to participate in the 2012- 2013 year. SchoolNet has written two posts about Adobe Youth Voices participants visiting different countries in 2011: 1) <a href="http://e-blogschool.blogspot.com/2011/08/what-abour-getting-involved-in.html" target="_blank">What about getting involved in SchoolNet’s Adobe Youth Voices programme </a> <table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_cV0SjWwrS0prd7M6hti6kcLL4_Nqr6G51sn9jhV8kLByMU2xJNLSWaf-VsgkWCaGJIII35jwDV6aLUzHQGhESU3LaAVsLJkOK00qFgf3vONlC3kyi3U7WB4Niz25RQgn3abXKbNLjEY/s1600/Hlengiwe.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="238" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_cV0SjWwrS0prd7M6hti6kcLL4_Nqr6G51sn9jhV8kLByMU2xJNLSWaf-VsgkWCaGJIII35jwDV6aLUzHQGhESU3LaAVsLJkOK00qFgf3vONlC3kyi3U7WB4Niz25RQgn3abXKbNLjEY/s320/Hlengiwe.JPG" width="320" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Hlengiwe Mfeka visits California with her movie project on Street Children</td></tr></tbody></table> 2) <a href="http://e-blogschool.blogspot.com/2011/08/schoolnets-adobe-youth-voices-programme.html" target="_blank">SchoolNet’sAdobe Youth Voices programme sends a team to California</a> <table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZvxNXijj7S0CltQ892BMYSIkFT2KKXjsSg6qPRyhnHBow_SZHeo6Cw3z0gqWasedpygnPD-LKW08DetcUZ1ajzzv30fwhcCmMN1Aa6sz_bH1qg_O7uvp5Jh-O8GykCL7t2WTzMcxXiLs/s1600/Warren.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="238" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZvxNXijj7S0CltQ892BMYSIkFT2KKXjsSg6qPRyhnHBow_SZHeo6Cw3z0gqWasedpygnPD-LKW08DetcUZ1ajzzv30fwhcCmMN1Aa6sz_bH1qg_O7uvp5Jh-O8GykCL7t2WTzMcxXiLs/s320/Warren.JPG" width="320" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">The SchoolNet team visit Taiwan with Warren Sparrow's 'Super Veggie-Man' movie project</td></tr></tbody></table>View more of these media projects on <a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/schoolnetsa?feature=results_main" target="_blank">Schoolnet's YouTube Channel</a></div> Eligibility Criteria: • Serve low-income, disadvantaged middle and high school youth (ages 13–18) • Access to ICTs or an ability to access media production equipment and resources • Commitment of site administrator and/or information technology department to expedite the installation of donated software on site computers as soon as it is made available  Benefits: Up to 30 Adobe software licenses for installation at the site Recognition and opportunities to exhibit the site’s AYV youth projects to regional and global audiences Educator Selection Criteria: Experience in facilitating or an interest in learning new strategies for project-based learning Strong belief in student-centered community and social change projects Passionate about sharing youth perspectives and voices Committed to engaging youth in rigorous investigation of topics of their own choosing that are relevant and meaningful to their lives Motivated and available to participate in AYV,without any insurmountable barriers to success Educator Responsibilities: Participate in an 8-week online course Develop an AYV program plan for the year, which will be drafted collaboratively during the training Launch their program plan and guide at least 25 youth over the course of the year in the creation of youth media using the digital tools provided.
