Dear Steve:
Thanks for your message and for sharing news of your school's Web projects.
We appreciate learning about how technology is being used to explore the
arts and to engage students in learning.
We produce articles or original content for the Open Studio Digital Canvas
magazine on an irregular schedule, and mostly feature the work of Open
Studio grantees. However, two other Benton projects - Connect for Kids and
the Digital Divide Network - regularly write about the impact technology is
having in the nonprofit sector. In fact, the Digital Divide Network just
sent out a Call for Submissions for "first person" articles. I have listed
the information below for your reference, along with the name of the Benton
staff member who is coordinating submissions. You may want to consider
writing an article about the student's efforts and collaborative technology
projects.
In the meantime, I will forward your message to my colleagues in both
projects so they can be aware of your work.
Thanks again for your message.

**********************
Digital Divide Network Call for Submissions:
One of the Digital Divide Network's (http://digitaldividenetwork.org)
primary goals is to provide our audience with a diversity of voices. We are
encouraging people to submit articles that address the digital divide from a
social, cultural, political or economic perspective. Our goal is to provide
a forum for educators, policy professionals, and practitioners in the field
to share their experiences so that others, in similar positions, might learn
from these experiences. Our audience would like to hear your unique
perspectives. Would you be interested in writing a 700-2000 word article? If
you are interested, please contact me: Kade L. Twist, Policy Associate,
Communications Policy Program, Benton Foundation; Email: kade@benton.org;
Telephone: 202.638.5770; Fax: 202.638.5771.

Hi Steve,
Thank you so much for sharing the two web projects with me. Your students
are to be commended on doing such a wonderful job. I would be pleased to
include the projects on Learning with Technology. I will be linking the
projects in two different locations:
1. Internet Links Arranged by Curriculum Area, Art Internet Sites
2. Creating Web-Based Activities
Also, I will make a point to show off your students' web projects when I am
presenting sessions on Creating Web-Based Activities to teachers and at
conferences.
Again, thank you for sending us links to such great student work!

Hi Steve,
Many thanks for writing in. After a lot of thought this end, we've placed your
projects in our "Creativity" area as we have a new section for Art-related
items - http://www.happychild.org.uk/nvs/cont/artwork/index.htm, and this
whole area of the website is receiving a lot of feedback at present.
We're planning to add a link also from the Leonardo da Vinci page in Mike
Tipper's Accelerated Learning area - see
http://www.happychild.org.uk/acc/tpr/gtm/0598ldav.htm , and we'll also
mention your projects on our Latest News page.
If you're able to add a link to Project HappyChild (any page) from somewhere
on your school website, this would be much appreciated.
Best regards,
Penny.

Dear Steve,
Congratulations! Your amazing students at John F. Kennedy High have received
the Amazing Kids! of the Month award from Amazing Kids! Your students hard
work on ArtiFAQ 2100 is proudly on display as our October Amazing Kids! of the
Month on the Amazing Kids! website at: www.amazing-kids.org/kids10-00.htm#art
Could you please take some time to review the story carefully and let me know if
there are any typos, or any errors that need fixing? The story will be featured for
the entire month of October on our website, and will remain in our archives
indefinitely, at the same URL.
You and your students can be very proud of the hard work and dedication you
have put into creating ArtiFAQ 2100. I know the website will serve as an excellent
art history learning tool for other students, and hopefully help inspire some to create
their own artistic visions of the future too.
Keep up the great work, Steve. Your commitment to your students' education is
fantastic!
Warmest wishes,
Alyse Rome

Dear Steven!
We’re less than three weeks away from the CyberSurfari FALL Launch!
Also, we would love it if you could publicize the program in any way. Some ideas
are to send e-mail to your users, mention your participation in a newsletter or just
post a blurb on your site! Reply to request any sample materials.
We are so happy to have you participate and appreciate your time and support.
Please contact me with any questions.
Sincerely,

Dear Steve
Thanks for your e-mail. Magic Links - Finished Projects is a section restricted to projects
developed by Yazigi Students. Yet, we have a collaboration page where I
could link the Art project, as long as you could link us some where on your site.
http://fln-con.yazigi.com.br/collaboration.htm
I'll share your link with my workmates anyway.
Hope to hear from you again
