Live webcast series: connecting youth in Canada.

• Author: Mildon, Marsha
• Position: News And notes - Inuit and First Nation Youth - Brief Article

A four-part live webcast series is being sponsored by the Ministry of Indian and Northern Affairs. "This project is all about youth talking to youth on the Internet; finding out how other teenagers live, what they think, and where they're coming from."

One Inuit and three First Nation communities from different parts of Canada will each host a live webcast. The host Aboriginal students will take part in a themed discussion moderated by a host

Schools and educators across the country are invited to go online, watch, and send in questions by email. Questions can be about anything; Aboriginal culture, living in a different part of Canada, or the latest movie the students have seen.

Aboriginal students in the host communities will answer as many questions as possible sent in from classes, and discuss their answers with each other.

This all happens live!

Each webcast will last 30 minutes...
