MEET – Middle East Education Through Technology is a non-profit organization offering a model for intergroup interaction and conflict mitigation through education. MEET takes place in Jerusalem and is run by an international team of staff and volunteers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the Middle East. ==Structure== MEET runs an intensive summer camp in which Israeli and Palestinian high school students learn computer science and business from a team of MIT instructors. The students enter the program in the summer after 9th grade and attend three summers of MEET, each year building on the skills and knowledge from the previous summers. The curriculum is heavily project-based, with students working together on lab assignments from day one culminating in large software engineering projects that teams of students complete in the later summers. During the two intervening school years, students meet roughly once a week in small groups for lectures and smaller projects. The summer instructors are current or former MIT students chosen through a rigorous application process. Each year, the instructor team consists of a mix of new and former instructors. The instructors maintain a student group at MIT during the school year which develops curriculum, recruits the next summer's team of instructors, and promotes MEET on MIT campus. The yearlong instructors live in Jerusalem or surrounding area. Most are university students or working in high tech. The students come from high schools in Jerusalem, Mevaseret, Bethlehem, Beit Shemesh, and Ramallah. Those that live outside of Jerusalem are housed in Jerusalem from Sunday through Thursday of each week of the summer camp. The entire program is conducted in English. Neither students nor instructors pay to participate. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「MEET – Middle East Education Through Technology」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
