Expectations for Trip Number 2 to Rio

Saori Fotenos — Wed, 21 Dec 2005 19:02:15 -0500

I need a couple of days at the school to show the teachers the blog we have up and teach them how they can start blogging themselves. I will make sure they have a plan and a commitment to add a couple of entries in the coming months. When I get back to Stanford, I will continue working on a audience for these posts, which I have already started this year.

My mentor for RDVP, Allen Long, has suggested I make a list of the things I can be doing at Stanford and those I could be doing in Rio for assessing where I should be for the remainder of the program. This is mostly brainstorming, but any opinions/suggestions are welcome.

Strategic Focus and Mission Expansion - Results from Rio trip

Saori Fotenos — Thu, 08 Dec 2005 17:57:11 -0500

Having spent Thanksgiving break in Rio working at Projeto Uerê, I am reporting back on some minor changes to the project. Overall it was a great success and despite the dire situation of many of the children, I was inspired and deeply moved by the work Yvonne and everyone at the school are doing to give the children a chance in life.

This was a short presentation I did for a class taught by Professor Lyris Wiedemann (Head of Portuguese Department at Stanford) trying to capture what Vamos Blogar is all about. Some of the highlights are the deliverables as they stand on November 2005, before the on-site trip scheduled for Thanksgiving Break.
