    Hi Jack,
    This is a great idea! I will spread the word in my area. I can envision many people at the high school level wanting to become involved in this project.
  • Linda Bartlett

    Great idea! YouTube is blocked at our school but not teacher tube.
  • Lisa Hoganson

    This wonderful. And very amusing!
  • Mark Potoshnik

    Jack,
    Unfortunately my time is maxed right now. I like the idea and will spread the word around within my group of students.
  • Sandra Oliver

    I did share the site with HS teachers on Monday but YouTube was blocked so I could not show the examples. We did simple podcasts in the workshop using a any vocab word or concept they chose so it was a good resource to show them and it is still linked to a wiki page I think some will re-visit
  • Susanne Lercher

    Looks like fun!

    The link doesn't seem to work. I would really like to preview info before I make a decision.

    Thanks!

    I checked out the link, and this looks really cool and right in line with what my students enjoy: using technology. I will bring this to the attention of the multimedia teacher, and see if I can team up with him and a few students to create a quality project. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.

  • Joann Eldridge

    Thank you for the information- I have have passed it along to staff and hope some of the students from Ames , Iowa , will be participating.
  • MsLisaKate

    Hi Jack! Thanks for your outreach. This would have been perfect for my students last year but now I am at a K-6 school as Director of IT, Boston Renaissance Charter Public School. I will pass this along to my contacts however. Please keep me in the loop of other projects like this!
  • Dave Powers

    Hi Jack,

    Thanks for the invitation to the MIT vocabulary contest. I will talk with my team Literacy teacher and see if we can get some students who need a challenge to make some useful videos.

    Please keep me in the loop of other projects also.

    Hi Jack,

    I'm sorry that it took so long to get back to you. I don't use my FrayTeach@aol.com email much anymore. But if it's not too late, send me an email at TeacherFray@aol.com and tell me more about the Video Vocab contest. If my students can take part, we certainly will!

  • Jonathan Henderson

    Sorry about the delay in this. I will pass this on to my Language Arts teachers. It sounds great.

  • Kate Reber

    Hi Jack,

    This sounds terrific! I'm also not a big user of Classroom 2.0 but would love to find out more about your program. You can email me at kireber@mlp.philasd.org. I will share the information with the other Humanities educators at School of the Future.

    Best,
    Kate
  • Bob Follmuth

    We might, but realize that I teach in two K-5 buildings - we're not quite up to SATs and ACTs yet. I'll pass this along to a colleague in our high school building though.

  • Lisa Thumann

    Hi Jack,
    I already posted the info to my blog, Thumann Resources, and have passed the information on to the CMSCE's ListServ.

    Best of luck with the competition!

  • Lisa Linn

    I would love to help, but am on leave at the moment. I will pass on the information to colleagueds at the HS. Hope this helps.

  • JB Kilpatrick

    Hey! Thanks for the info. I am meeting with all grade levels tomorrow (middle school) and will see which teachers are interested.

  • Yanaka Bernal

    Hi Jack,

    I'll send your question to our DE tech user group. I'm sure that there will be some interest out there. Also, a good place to start looking for interest would be the Charter School of Wilmington. "Charter" is very academically-minded and the kids there are always interested in a challenge.

    Yanaka
  • Polly

    I will ask around.
  • Christopher Bugaj

    What an awesome idea. I will certainly pass this on to other educators who have students who might be interested.
  • Chris Phillips

    Looks like you're looking for high school students, I'm in a middle school and most of the kids are not prepping for SAT/ACT yet - I will forward your link to my counterpart in the high schools in my district.
  • Erich Tusch

    Hello Jack,

    Although I live in NY I work in a school district located in NJ. I will share your project with our Curriculum Director.

    Thanks for the invitation.

  • Louis Mazza

    Hey Jack - Your vocab video project sounds great. I'm going to talk to our English teacher about working together on this.
    I'll get back to you.
  • Greg Lehr

    Jack,
    The project looks great. The problem is all of our students take the ACT and not the SAT, but I'll check with our English teachers and see if they would be interested. Thanks for the invite and I'll let you know.
  • Jacqueline Sanchez

    Hi Jack - Looks like a great project/contest. I am in an elementary school. I forwarded your email to my area specialist who will forward it to the correct curriculum person in our district. Thanks again!
  • Lorie Lee

    HI Jack. I am in an elementary school but I will pass the info to high school teachers. I'll be watching to see how the project goes. Let me know if you do something for elementary.
  • Paula

    Hi jack, I have passed the information on to my English teachers in the high school and Middle school. Hopefully they will agree to participate. Good Luck!

    Hi Jack!
    I teach Technology classes at a High School, but I'll ask around.

  • Melissa M

    Hi Jack,
    Hope all is well! I teach all freshman, so I can ask some of my colleagues that are teaching juniors and see if they can participate. Stay tuned!!!
  • Janice Harding

    Gosh, this looks like such fun! It won't fit into my science, social studies, or reading classes right now (we're knee deep in project work), but I'm going to pass it on to my teaching partner and several others. I'll even offer to supply the cameras to make it happen! :)
  • April Chamberlain

    Jack,
    I would love for students at Trussville City Schools to participate in this project. What grade levels are you looking for? Do you have more information about the project so I can share with the teachers? We have about 4,500 students K-12.
  • Mandie

    Hi Jack. Thanks for the invitation. Our school is K4-8. However, maybe our 8th grade English teacher would be interested in doing such a challenge. I'll meet with her and see.
