I want to thank CK-12 for offering me this great opportunity to learn and be a part of a cause I value. It was fun for me to learn more about nutrition as I researched about lipids and neuroglia, and to spend hours coming up with quirky real world applications. I’m also very grateful to the Stephanie Hom and the UX Design team for  including me in their projects and helping me learn more about the career field I’m interested in. Thank you CK-12!

There are many perks of being a CK-12 intern. One, you make friends. There are many other interns around the same age. It is impossible to not make friends in this workplace. Second, the working environment is comfortable and quiet. There is no stress or pressure – besides debating on what food you want to eat.

I enjoyed being a CK-12 intern because I got the opportunity to work with other students just as passionate about taking what we’ve learned in our science classes and presenting it in a fun short concept in action.

What I enjoyed the most about being a CK-12 intern was working in a professional environment with passionate people and getting a glimpse at the inner workings of a non-profit.

Working with CK-12 has gifted me with skills and memories I will always cherish: purpose, responsibility, dedication, work experience, teamwork, and laughs, of course. I hope I have provided this amazing, benevolent company with as much as CK-12 has provided me!

My favorite part about working at CK12 was being able to create my own content that would be published on the site. I also liked meeting the wide variety of people that worked here.

Through interning at CK-12 I learned more about how online textbooks make education more accessible to everyone. It also gave me the chance to apply the knowledge I know in a setting outside of school. Knowing that I was making an impact on other students’ lives through my project at CK-12 was truly a rewarding experience.

You won’t regret coming to CK-12 as an intern! It has been an absolute honor being here! First, all the people here are inviting and fun. They’re really great role models and are very passionate! Second, it’s amazing to see this company continuously transform and change. It’s really awesome to be a part of this growing community and it feels good to know that our work and suggestions are going to help students like us. Third, it’s probably been said a lot, but you do really get the experience of working in a company. You brainstorm and work with your peers, attend meetings, and talk with people on a professional level (at least you try). Third, did I mention the food? Super good! But all jokes aside, it has been a great experience here and I hope I can return with better skills to assist this organization. Thanks for having me here!

I enjoy working at CK-12 because it is an opportunity for me to reinforce the things that I have learned in high school so that I am much better prepared for college.

Through CK-12 I was able to find my passion for education and learning. I enjoyed working in such a passionate environment with people who were dedicated to CK-12’s mission.

Working at CK12 was the highlight of my summer and a great experience. I love the idea of free online textbooks, and CK12 provided me with an opportunity to contribute to them. The people I met and worked with were very friendly and a pleasure to be around.

What I enjoyed the most about working at CK-12 was that I got to work almost as a regular, full-time employee! I got to access the key-activated employee entrance, work in a cubicle, and enjoy nearly full access to the kitchen! Most of all, I became a key contributor to the direction that the company is taking by publishing my own original content on the website and providing feedback! It was a real pleasure working with all of the employees and interns, and I would certainly like to do so again in the future!

Being a CK-12 intern meant creating interesting resources for use by other students like me, an opportunity that I always found exciting. The experience of coming to CK-12 every week and working with interns and employees to do something worthwhile for education kept me engaged often. And of course, the treasures of the kitchen were always a plus! I hope to work at CK-12 sometime again in the future!

I really enjoyed being an intern and further advancing CK-12’s website with new material. I loved being able to use my creativity to write Real World Applications, which were later posted on the website, and hopefully used by people who needed help with certain concepts!

I really loved the friendly and warm environment at CK-12.  I learned so much working here; it was an awesome experience!

Working at CK-12 was an extraordinary experience. As an intern, I often had to think outside of the box. Whether it be creating real world applications or planning office parties, the work at CK-12 always kept me on my feet! What I especially enjoyed was the friendly and relaxed atmosphere that CK-12 had to offer!

This past summer I worked as an intern at CK12 and helped write and edit many of the earth science study guides. In addition to this I created physics, algebra, and geometry flashcards. I love to learn new things and am primarily interested in mathematics, sciences, and social sciences.

As a member of the critical thinking group, I worked to create stimulating and thought-provoking questions about each concept that allows students to research the topic in more depth and learn about its connections and uses in the real world. In addition I found engaging videos, simulations and interactives that help further teach the concept to students. At Menlo, my interests include water polo mock trial and community service.

This summer I worked as part of the Study Guide team, writing, editing, and formatting Earth Science study guides on topics such as Earthquake Characteristics and Location and Direction.  I also worked on the social media project where I analyzed existing social media sites and highlighted the aspects of popular social networks that create strong communities and make these networks thrive.  I then brainstormed ways of transferring these aspects to an educational CK-12 social media site and identified other unique features that would make the CK-12 social network successful. In addition to academics, I play on our school tennis team, litigate as a pretrial attorney in our mock trial club, and am the Public Relations coordinator and an editor for my school’s newspaper.

In summer 2012, I’ve had the privilege of interning at CK-12, which provides free online educational material. I was excited to contribute to the “Creative Critical Thinking Problems” project which created hundreds of mind-stimulating questions and researched insightful enrichment videos and simulations covering math and science. I also met wonderful people, including interns, teachers, managers, and supervisors. This internship is definitely very memorable to me!

During my summer internship at CK-12, I created study guides to help students review important information and prepare for tests in subjects such as earth science and biology. In addition, I made flashcards for various topics that cover relevant vocabulary and can be used in conjunction with the corresponding study guides.

This summer I created flash cards and reviewed study guides for CK-12. I’m glad to have helped CK-12 in its mission to produce accessible, alternative methods of education for students across the world. In my free time, I enjoy playing tennis, playing the piano, and playing with my dog.

In the summer of 2012, I worked on creating critical thinking problems mainly relating to Biology and Statistics at CK-12. Prior to this, I have also interned at a law firm and a ship management company in Hong Kong. I have also started my own non-profit that aims to save lives by promoting global sanitation in partnership with hotels http://www.rcoz.org.

I worked with other high school interns this summer to create a list of critical thinking questions.

I am excited to be working at CK-12 because I like the idea of free online textbooks. I am excited to apply the things I have learned to the science study guides I am working on.

I am a fanatic about chemistry, and I hope my work at CK-12 will inspire other students to pursue chemistry (and hopefully get the chance later in life to make something explode).

I really love the idea of online textbooks and learning resources for students. It’s awesome to be able to help other students by creating study guides for them.

I am excited to work at CK-12 because I will get the opportunity to apply some of the knowledge I have gained in my science courses toward helping other students by writing study guides.

I am interested in making at least a small change in the lives of students, hopefully making their studying a little bit easier. I am focusing on finding and making interactive games for students.

I’m so excited to be interning at CK-12! I’ve always been interested in education and I really believe in the work CK-12 is doing to make educational materials more accessible and more dynamic.

I am excited to be interning at CK-12 because it will be a great experience for me to obtain a sense of how a company functions and gain valuable real world experience in working on projects with a team at a company. I will be working on study guides for algebra.

I am excited to be interning at CK-12 because I want to use my knowledge to help other people, as well as learning new skills. I will be working on study guides for chemistry.

I’m excited to intern at CK-12 because they cater and support students just like me. At CK-12 I’d be helping to design a website, which I learned how to do at Freestyle Academy, a school I went to part-time last year.

I’m excited about interning here because I’ll get to use the design skills I’ve learned in school in a real world environment.

I really like the idea of online textbooks, and I am excited to help spread a new generation of online textbooks.

I am excited to work at CK-12 because it will give me a chance to help, albeit in a small way, to introduce free textbooks to the world, and thus, again in a small way, help educate the world.

I am excited about working with other interns to contribute to CK-12!

I am excited to be an intern at CK-12 because not only do I gain work experience but I also give back to an organization that provides a very helpful resource for teachers and students alike.

I enjoy coming to CK-12 because I constantly want to learn and create new things.

I’m excited to be a part of CK-12’s effort to bring effective education to students, and I hope what we accomplish here will help others be better learners.
