Collaborative Editorial Board
The ASAP Collaborative Editorial Board is one of the main body of the project. It engages school kids especially, but also teachers and partners, leveraging on their (technical e non technical) digital skills to broaden their understanding of digital and social media World.
Its main objective is to take kids behind the scenes of digital and social media production and make them aware of how the media realm works. Through collaboration and discussion, the group works together to develop ideas and create content that is engaging, informative, and relevant to their peers on the topic of digital ans social media. The kids in the group also receive guidance and mentorship from adult experts in the field of digital media and education.
The collaborative approach allows the board to create content that is more meaningful and effective than what any individual could produce alone. It also empowers young people to take an active role in shaping the conversation around digital media and social media use.
