    Hi Karen!

    Happy New Year! I was wondering if you, your educator contacts or students would be interested in participating in a nationwide Vocab Video Contest @ MIT university. We'd really like to get more students involved from California!

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

    Thanks, Karen! OK, the best source for details about the contest would be at the website http://www.brainyflix.com. You'll want to read the short blurb on the homepage and then click on the link that says Contest Rules. Let me know if you have any outstanding questions!

    Hey Karen,

    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 telling students and your colleagues again?

    Thanks,
    Jack
