On Thursday, November 9th students from Pacifica High School’s CTE Entrepreneurship course, pitched their business plan: “OC Barber-To-Go” to a small panel of business leaders, Opus Bank and Shear Craft Hair Studio, who volunteered their time to provide students with critical feedback on their business proposal. The goal of the mock panel was to help students prepare for the Virtual Enterprises Business Plan competition on December 4th. The small panel is part of our Youth Career Connections Initiative where the United Way connected corporate volunteers with young entrepreneurs who shared their business plan, company’s website and discussed financials for sustainability and expansion in Orange County.
Youth Career Connections volunteer activities like these help to create real-life experiences where students practice 21st century skills in entrepreneurship, global business, problem solving, communication, personal finance and technology. Join us for future #YouthCareerConnections volunteer opportunities like these!
Daily Shoot (#ds674) - "Make a photograph that illustrates the idea of connection."
A clicker is my tool of choice to teach new skills to the boys. The key is to make the CONNECTION that a click is always followed by a treat.
Just as the sounds the kibble canister means dinner, and the sounds of you getting the leash means a walk, they quickly learn that the sound of the click means a treat.
The learning really takes off once they figure out their behavior is what is making you click, and by paying attention to what they are doing when they hear that click, they can repeat it, and make you click again.
And the skies will open, and cookies will rain from above!
Zachary is clicker "pro", working quickly and creatively to figure out what I am clicking for.
The Utah State Office of Education Title VII Program in partnership with the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), Red Butte Garden, the Urban Indian Center and the Utah Natural History Museum hosted the second annual of the Earth Connections Camp, American Indian Nature Camp on June 18.
The camp’s goal is to reconnect urban American Indian youth with their natural world and cultural heritage, organizers said.
The 30 campers, divided into two groups, spent the day at Red Butte Garden learning about American Indian traditions, history, arts and craft, storytelling and nutrition.
American Indian educators and specialists from the various partners led each of the learning stations.
Juan Palma, BLM Utah state director, was the keynote speaker. He shared his story of growing up in a family of migrant workers and the difference education made in his life.
Other activities during the day-long camp included building solar toys and constructing dams with the assistance of Bureau of Reclamation staff.
“I was so impressed with the instructors, volunteers, and especially the campers,” said Jeanette Shackelford, BLM Utah State Youth Program Lead. “The kids were respectful and attentive, and I personally learned a lot from listening to the different sessions.”
Organizers hope to continue to collaborate and expand the day-camp to have more students attend.
I had a blog once that had a very simple layout. The only graphical item on it (besides the actual content) I used a stock photo of a USB cable very similar to this one. I will try to see if I can find the photo... or even the original layout image...
