Please<br> be aware GCI will start about a month earlier this year than in previous<br> years - the contest starts for students October 23rd!<br> <br> The GCI timeline, FAQs, Rules and flyers have been updated on the contest<br> site <<a href="http://g.co/gci" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://g.co/gci</a>>.<br> <br> Organizations -- If you would like to apply for the 2018 program please<br> start thinking about the tasks you would like students to work on and reach<br> out to your community members to ask if they would like to be mentors for<br> the program. *Organization applications open for GCI orgs *next week on<br> Thursday, September 6th, and close less than 2 weeks later on Monday,<br> September 17th. We will announce organizations on Tuesday, September 18th<br> giving orgs 5 weeks to create their tasks before the contest begins on<br> October 23rd.<br> <br> The major changes for GCI 2018 are:<br> <br> -<br> <br> Orgs will evaluate the 20 students completing the most tasks with their<br> org when deciding on finalists and winners<br> -<br> <br> Orgs will choose 6 finalists (instead of 5)<br> -<br> <br> We have renamed the User Interface category to Design<br> -<br> <br> Students will have to wait until Google reviews their Parental Consent<br> form before they can claim their first task. This will slow things down but<br> it is a requirement to be able to continue the program.<br> -<br> <br> No tasks asking for personal information about students will be allowed<br> (this includes tasks asking for students to introduce themselves with info<br> like what country they are from, or photos of the students, etc.).<br> <br> We are looking to continue the growth of this program and reach a record<br> number of teenagers this year!
