ZAWADI PROJECT IN ISIS 140:INTRODUCTION TO WEB-BASED MULTIMEDIA COMMUNICATIONS
In Spring 2009 Professor Richard Lucic mentored his ISIS 140 students in creating a website with informational videos and other materials designed to help students involved in the Zawadi program adjust to life on an American campus. Students used the students they developed in this core ISIS course in combination with their own experiences in order to create this rich resource. Most of the students in the class had little or no prior experience in multimedia design.
The Zawadi Africa Education Fund is a program designed to provide scholarships to academically gifted girls from disadvantaged backgrounds from Africa to pursue higher education in the US. The Zawadi Africa Education Fund is based on the highly successful Kennedy/Mboya Student airlifts of the 1960's, through a partnership with individuals and institutions with an interest in creating leadership opportunities for girls in Africa.
