YOVO* in the News!
A week following our presentation, YOVO* was given recognition in the local VIU news. The article spoke about our efforts to raise awareness and urge the local community to vote on election day (October 19, 2015). The news article emphasized education in the 21st century and what we, as upcoming professionals, saw within our field. Team members made comments about why awareness needed to happen and how this project could be made relevant for generations to come. While our faculty mentor spoke about the Post-Bacc program, and how they are incorporating cutting edge ideas, based through research, to prepare us in becoming great educators.
We were fortunate to have such wonderful support throughout our time in the Post-Bacc Program. This is evident through the article, this website, and through our individual ePortfolio's. We would like to give recognition and thanks to VIU news for advocating alongside us and supporting our efforts to raise awareness. As well, we would like to thank everyone who has visited our site; and to the voters that took the time to cast a vote, and took advantage of the rights we have, as Canadian Citizens. |
