I am hosting an exhibit booth for the first time at NECC and thought that I’d reach out to you.

I develop core curriculum resources atop Web 2.0 technology and have a suite of five Google Earth products that we are marketing at our booth:
Gatsby of the Twenties
Considering the Realities of the Holocaust
Okies Head West
Colonial Economic Regions
The Cuban Missile Crisis

Each of our units includes a teacher resource booklet, a student work packet and a Google Earth layer. The student work packet contains a series of prompts that students use the markers, videos, pictures, and text to respond.

I’d be happy to set up some time to demonstrate one of these resources for you, before NECC. I’m hoping that there might be some way to work this product into your presentation.

We will be in exhibit 3744.

Thank you very much and I hope to hear from you.

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 HS colleagues again?

Thanks,
Jack

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

If you have any questions, put them up in the forum, I think you'll be surprised at how fast members will get back to you. If you have any answers, hop in those discussions. :)

Welcome, again.

Thanks for the invite ... we just got back from Atlanta about 2 hours ago. Let's compare notes!

Take care,
