infographics communication french language professional writing english languageOur organization is able to offer a virtual internship opportunity for 1 or more students.
The primary focus for the student will be: translating our organization's content into French so that it can be accessed by our French speaking students. This content includes the material that is on our website (Science Atlantic), infographics, information about student conferences.
The following are examples of our tone and professional writing standard:
- https://scienceatlantic.ca/recognition/hall-of-fame/members/arthur-sedgwick/
- https://scienceatlantic.ca/recognition/hall-of-fame/members/william-a-bridgeo/
- https://scienceatlantic.ca/recognition/hall-of-fame/members/john-f-read/
Our goal at the end of this experience is: We will determine the project size (number of words/documents) with you before the project begins.
Other duties the student may complete could include: critically examining and commenting on the content itself, to let us know if it all makes sense and that it is consistent.
We will plan to communicate with our virtual intern using these communication tools: Riipen messaging, email, video calls.
Student's primary contact: (Lois Whitehead, Executive Director)
We will work closely with the student and provide feedback along the way. We will meet at least once per week to review progress and answer questions.
