Local Treasure Maps
Relief International - Schools Online's
June project was dedi cated to virtual tourism and global
citizenship. Students from different countries created maps to
guide visitors to unique places in their communities. In the
Palestinian territories, over 12 student groups from six
districts participated. Using ICT training delivered as part of
previous GCEP projects, students created 'e-maps' that can be
sent to visitors. The final products were creative and
innovative and the first place in the competition was awarded to
the student group from the Arab American
School in Jenin.
 This group is the newest student group in the RI-SOL
Jenin Community Action and
Learning
Center and will also be
participating in the Peace Process Project with Mason West. The
group used different IT programs such as PowerPoint and
Photoshop to create a really strong presentation. "It was a
really good opportunity for us to learn about our country and
other countries, and to send our friends abroad information
about Palestine," said Zaina,
one of the participants.
