"This is amazing to be able to make a presentation with animations. I feel so professional. I could also use these skills when I was preparing a topic for one of my classes and I was the only one who gave a great presentation, thus getting A" – a mentee was saying with happiness.
During these months, 14 mentees were provided by 16 hours of group meetings on computer classes. They gained skills in navigating safely on the internet and in differentiating and analyzing various information. They learned how to paraphrase the read information. Along with these skills, the girls also learned how to put together power-point presentations and how to write a research paper. As soon as they gained all these skills, they chose a topic and started to write a paper on it. When the paper was ready, they started to transfer the paper into a power-point presentation. The mentees chose interesting topics, such as classical music, the psychology fo color, self-esteem and self-confidence, universe, modern professions, etc. Once, the presentations were finalized, the mentees were exposed to other skills such as communication skills, teamwork, public speaking, time management, etc. After having all the important skills, the mentees started to share their presentations in front of the group thus practicing their gained skills.
