Youth Got Talent!
Program:Educational preparation ESL literacy programs |
CLB Literacy Phase :Phase I - III |
Where:Bow Valley College |
Who:Youth in Transition |
Target Audience:Youth (18–25 years) |
Students in my Youth in Transition class were responsible for various aspects of producing a talent show for their program. They made decisions on talent criteria and advertised auditions for the talent show by creating posters and presenting to other classes. They were also responsible for introducing the various acts during the talent show. Seven students performed a variety of numbers that included dancing and singing, and many students participated in the fashion show finale.
The students who organized the talent show experienced growth in personal confidence and developed ownership over this large and very real project. Students participating in the talent show gained greater self-esteem and had an outlet to demonstrate their talents.
The talent show, as a class project and event, was an enormous success and we hope to implement it every term.
