A call for mentors

Posted by: Brett  :  Category: Learning Programs

I am a bit nervous making this call after reading and following Al Upton’s drama over at his blog. However, I am going to live by the old adage “easier to ask for forgiveness than permission.” :)

Like Al a colleague and I are calling for mentors for our year 12 students who are about to launch a podcasting and blogging project. They are about to start a unit on Corporate Ethics in their Study of Religion unit. This is NOT a unit looking at these issues purely from one particular religious or philosophical view. We are after experts (which includes folk with life experience) to come and join the learning journey with our students. They will be blogging and podcasting their research. Anyone keen to encourage their learning and help them with their work will be warmly welcomed. The students are really excited about this activity and can’t wait to have their voice heard.

I will be launching the website with group blogs over our holiday break. If you think you would be interested please leave a comment here. I will be updating this blog with our progress. We welcome mentors from all parts of the globe. If you know someone who is particularly interested in the area of ethics please invite them along.

More coming soon - For now it is time to rest up!!
