Young Icelander wins U.S. contest























I had the pleasure of presenting to 11-year-old Ólina Helga Sverrirsdottir a certificate and two gifts as the middle school winner of the Alice Challenge--a program designed to encourage young people between the 3rd and 8th grades to surf safely online. As the winner, Ólina used the software program “Alice” to develop an animated video to encourage safe online surfing. Ólina’s video is posted on the www.alicechallenge.org website. The Alice Challenge program is a partnership between the FBI and Carnegie Mellon University.
