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

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!

Just wanted to let you know I mentioned your body image project on the Spencer Museum's blog "Adventures in Alternate Reality." Check it out here.
Thanks for such a great example!

We are planning a summer immersion camp for Chinese learners in MyChina. Do you know any group who I should talk with for doing camp in SL? I know Global Kids done a lot. I have not run across any language camp.

I came across your middle school body image project on the SL website not too long ago and was very impressed! It's one of the examples I've been using as I talk about the possibilities of SL with my museum co-workers. Excellent idea!

We already have the website of our project finished and we’d like to share it with you.

The goal of Bablingua is to offer good audiovisual materials filmed in Hispanic countries that can help teachers to enrich their classes. In the website there are short videos, long videos, vocabulary cards and a blog with free activities, games and new ideas for the foreign language class.

Please, visit us at : www.bablingua.com, and let us know your opinion, comments and ideas you have to improve it.
