A
Student's Dictionary
“The limits of your language are the
limits of your world” according to a quote by Ludwig
Wittgenstein on the cover of the new “A Student's
Dictionary”. The dictionaries are part of the Verizon
TelecomPioneers signature education project, to be provided

PROJECT CONNECT |
 |
The
TelecomPioneers Association is pleased to announce the
release of the organization's new signature education
project, Project:Connect, after two years of development.
Project:Connect combines education with the popularity of
video games. Students are challenged to learn lessons in
technology by playing games featuring a product or service
of the telecommunications industry.
|
The
seven games are: E-Mail:Connect, Compression:Connect, Fiber
Optic:Connect, Cable:Connect, Satellite:Connect,
Cellular:Connect, and VoIP:Connect.
“We're pleased to offer youngsters this fun and educational
program,” said Marty Lee, president of TelecomPioneers. “with
Project:Connect, the principles behind modern telecommunications
are at their fingertips.”
Project:Connect targets 4th through 7th graders and is
available at no charge to schools, community centers and other
organizations. The project is fully funded by the
TelecomPioneers Association. |

911 SIMULATOR PROJECT |
 |
The 911 Simulator program
was developed by Pioneers to teach children how to phone for help in an
emergency, duplicating the exact process experienced during a real 911
call. |

HUG A BEAR PROJECT |
|
 |
Hug-A-Bears/Smart Bears
Hug-A-Bears were created by the Pioneers in order to provide comfort to
children in traumatic or unfamiliar situations. The bears are donated to
public safety, fire, rescue and emergency medical personnel to be given
to children.
Smart Bears are similar to Hug-A-Bears, but are equipped with a book bag
and a book to encourage reading in the home for children in kindergarten
through third grade. |
