The internship starts immediately and is on till the end of the summer vacations. It will involve the following:
Kids will need to:
Research and suggest news topics
Write articles and collate news
Create Quizzes
Contribute to the newsletter by sending summaries of news events.
What they'll get out of this:
Learn News Writing
Better their General Knowledge
The editor will provide guidance and encourage kids to push boundaries - so they become more aware and write better. The articles will be published on the I Kid You Not website.
The articles will also be given written feedback - so the kids learn to write better.
There will be an orientation zoom call to welcome everyone. Post this the kids will start writing the articles. We will also have zoom calls every 10 days, so the kids can ask any questions and also the editors can give feedback, if needed.
There will be a fun quiz at the end of each month - kids who answer most questions will win prizes :)
