Hey Karl,

Our Brainyflix video contest just ended, and I wanted to thank you for helping us get the word out. We got 800 submissions from across the country!

That said, MIT was really happy with the results and will let us run another contest, so we're going for it! But this time, we're gonna have kids create Brainypics flashcards - which are images and sentences paired up with a one of our SAT/ACT words. The contest ends May 22nd, and there'll be iTunes and a cash prize like last time. To boot, we'll double the payout if the kids can hit a certain goal. More details at brainyflix.com/main/contest_rules.

Do you mind passing my message along to students and your colleagues again?

Thanks,
Jack

Hey Karl, thanks for getting back to me. This is SAT vocabulary, so I suppose it is likely more appropriate for high school kids. However, a number of middle schools are getting involved and even an ambitious elementary grade class submitted a video. I will leave it to your discretion of course. At the very least if you could pass along the contest website brainyflix.com to your contacts at the high school that would be much appreciated

Hi Karl!

Hope you had a nice winter break. I was wondering if you or your students would be interested in participating in a nationwide SAT Vocab Video Contest @ MIT university. If not, perhaps you have some educator contacts you could direct me to. We'd really like to get students involved from NY!

You can view contest details at BrainyFlix.com Please let me know. Thanks!

Huge sorry for not responding thanks for the invite - keep in touch

hey karl - thanks for adding me - you are my 1st and only friend - as of yet. new to the whole game - but I like it - kind of a professional Myspace ;) diggin it.

Hi Karl, I use e-learning with my electrical apprentices. I use an open source platform called Moodle, which I host myself, and then use videos for teaching (which I've just started making into a podcast), and then online quizes, physicall textbooks and workbooks as support materials.

Hi Karl, looks like we're friends now!

Hello, Karl!

Thanks for adding me.

Thanks Karl. I'll check out that website. Hopefully, this will get a good discussion going with my kids.
