About Me
I'm working with educators across the state to help them develop more student-centered lessons by using inquiry-based and project-based learning. Of course, we believe that Web 2.0 tools can play a major role in student engagement. I am fortunate enough to be working with Sheryl-Nussbaum-Beach and John Norton on this project, as well as a very talatented group of Alabama educators.

    Hey Cathy. Thanks for helping to spread the word. We don't have anything for preK-5 just yet, but you are not the first to ask :] It's on our radar.

    Hey Cathy,

    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 your HS colleagues again?

    Thanks,
    Jack
