Hello Everyone We are posting to the list to make everyone aware of some opportunities we have with our project (Kentucky Migrant Technology Project) located in Shelbyville, Kentucky. Please forward this on to any Spanish teachers or translators in your buildings. As some of you know, we are currently underway with a large online virtual school project. We now have approximately 26 online courses, grades 6-12, that have been developed for the project by practicing teachers in the core areas of Math, Science, Social Studies, English, Humanities, and Vocational. All of them will be accessible on the web shortly. All the courses are in the English language now. We would like to have as many of these as possible translated over to Spanish for our Non-English speaking students. We would appreciate everyone’s help spreading the word about this need so we can get these translated by July 15th. We would like to offer these courses in English and Spanish this coming school year on the web for everyone to use. A sample biology course can be seen on our website at http://www.migrant.org Each document (segment of a course) to be translated will be roughly equal in length and level of difficulty. We estimate that each document to be translated will vary from 60-90 pages. All pages are double spaced, one sided, and many are only half to one third of a page. The Websites (URL’s) noted on each page will not have to be typed or keyed in. We will complete this task here in the office. The stipend for these sections will be $1200. We ask that anyone interested would have translating experience, some work samples, and references. Once we have a chance to talk with you then we will send out a packet for you to examine further. If we are all in accord, then we will need at least half of the work completed by June 25th for us to gauge progress. Once all work is complete and reviewed by our staff, then a check will be mailed from our organization. We would appreciate everyone’s help on this so that these wonderful resources can get into the hands of even more students this year.
