Wednesday, April 23, 2014. We use it daily! For goodness sake, don't use all this flowery English with me! I am not that good in language. Do you hear people saying this? Not many, these days, because, many of the words and phrases that Shakespeare used 400 years ago have come to stay in daily use of English. The words such as 'rant', 'fashionable' are among many words he coined. Haven't you slept one wink during examination time? Shakespeare did it first. Here is an article. Read it. Interesting! The we...

YOCee Blog: June 2013

Tuesday, June 18, 2013. Another batch of student reporters at YOCee get ready. For the seventh year, the students reporters meet in the month of June. It is a different batch every year. A few continue to report while the new batch trains for the whole year. We met recently for a briefing at Sastri Hall, Luz, Chennai. It was hot outside, but the air conditioners inside this century old hall kept the temperature cool and set the perfect atmosphere for learning. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Like what we do?

Saturday, June 23, 2012. How does it feel like as a reporter? Ask YOCee's cub reporters, they would say it is fun! But how does a reporter in a full job with a leading newspaper feels? It is fun again, but loads of work, commitment and strict deadlines, said Anusha Parthasarathy to the newly inducted student reporters of YOCee at the briefing session. Anusha spoke about meeting people who wouldn't speak much at interviews. "How would I get a bite from such people! That makes you lucky! This time they als...

YOCee Blog: October 2011
http://yoceeblog.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Sunday, October 9, 2011. When it was Puja Holidays -a long one week holiday - we thought the kids could be actively engaged online. Who are the 'we'? Two independent outfits that cater to the city and its kids in completely different forms and ways. We knew the kids would anyway be online playing, chatting, 'facebook'ing and 'hangout'ing on Google Plus. So why not some Googling and learning? That worked well. We launched ACID9 - Around Chennai in (9) Days. A Treasure Hunt completely online. The website f...

Wednesday, May 28, 2014. Cub reporters for the eight year at YOCee. Can't believe it is eight years since YOCee launched its Student Reporters Programme. The records show that about 100 students from class 6 and above apply for the programme every year. But we would like to take focus on a smaller batch and train them well. This year too we received four short of 100 entries. Most of them from the crucial years in school - class 10, 11 and 12! Monday, May 12, 2014. This is the fifth year YOCee has brough...

YOCee Blog: Know your country, election and manifesto
http://yoceeblog.blogspot.com/2014/04/know-your-country-election-and-manifesto.html
Monday, April 7, 2014. Know your country, election and manifesto. If you think that elections are only for those above 18 and could cast their votes, think again. Today's young people in schools are tomorrow's voters. The schools also conduct elections for Head boy and Head girl these days. Many Model United Nations (MUN) sessions are held in schools. All these introduce the young people to the administration of countries, the ministers and their portfolios . The website http:/ smartur.com/elections/.

YOCee Blog: Student Reporter Programme for this year is now open
http://yoceeblog.blogspot.com/2015/04/student-reporter-programme-for-this.html
Thursday, April 2, 2015. Student Reporter Programme for this year is now open. It was the Summer of 2007, YOCee launched its first Student Reporter Programme. But it was a big surprise for Team YOCee when we looked at our inbox and saw more than a hundred applications. We had to restrict our focus on a small number to run the programme effectively. And we selected 25 students from various parts of the city, studying in different schools. The programme encourages the young people to gather news and to com...
