About Me: I recently completed an MAE with an Instructional Technology focus and am passionate about the importance of technology use in all of our classrooms: K-16! My area of greatest interest is using technology to foster habits of writing, and its use as it specifically relates to English learners. I hold a multiple subjects credential and have taught 1st through 5th grades. Currently I'm working in my district's office on a special assignment.

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

If not, perhaps you have some educator contacts you could direct me to. You can view contest details at BrainyFlix.com Please let me know. Thanks!
