Generation Did


A Gen Did is a student who has successfully completed the Gen www.Y course or has demonstrated expertise working with technology and people. This course consists of four major strands : (1) leadership skills, (2) local community leaders, (3) community service, and (4) advanced technology skills. This class provides the opportunity for students to become proactive leaders in their school and community though the extensive use of advanced technology.

What makes GenDID unique...
The Gen Did course provides a vehicle for students to use their technology expertise to benefit not only their school but their community. The Gen www.Y student completes a lesson plan with his/her partner teacher. The Gen Did student develops a major project either within his/her school or with non-profit organizations in their community. These projects will typically use advanced technology skills.

The Gen Did web site allows the Gen Did teacher to develop a customized contract for his or her own students to use. The Gen Did students develop this contract which they will implement by the end of the class. Gen Dids throughout the country will have access to all contracts as well as forums and chat sessions related to the technologies and organizations they are working with.
