Have you heard of Desire2Learn? They are working hard to transform the way the world learns. Desire2Learn is a global leader in Cloud-based (SaaS) learning solutions.
…wait what is that?
Cloud-based (SaaS): Sometimes this is referred to as “on-demand software”. This is where software and the data associated with it are hosted. Hosted on a cloud…how fancy is that?
They provide an open platform to over 750 clients and over 10 million learners in higher education, K-12, healthcare, government and the corporate world. This is a great way to find the right solution for education in your organization.
Schoos is finally out for the summer for most kids in the USA. We are actually homeschoolers and our education continues on through the summer. But for kids in public school, it is time for a break, time for some fun!
Desire2Learn Incorporated is kicking off a summer contest on thier Facebook page. The contest is a video contest and the winner will receive a $2,000 education grant! The edtech company is providing K-12 students and their families a great opportunity here. Seriously, you can win education money just by uploading a 30 to 60-second home video to YouTube and posting it to the Desire2Learn Facebook page.
The videos need to describe their greatest lessons, achievements or accomplishments from the previous school year. Here is an example you can watch to see what they are looking for.
Entering is very easy! Check it out:
1. Create a 30 to 60-second video of your child where they talk about what they learned this school year and then upload it to YouTube;
2. Go the Desire2Learn Facebook page and “Like” it;
3. Submit your video, share it with your friends and family and ask them to VOTE FOR YOU!
Easy! I am sure you and your children will have a great time creating your video and if you are lucky, you’ll have $2,000 for education! This promotion is in no way sponsored, endorsed or administered by, or associated with Facebook. For Official Rules please visit: https://www.facebook.com/Desire2Learn/app_201843093159336
Contest judges will be selecting the top videos every week which will be posted to the company Facebook page. Nominees are given easy tools to “share” their videos with their friends and family to help increase their vote totals and check their progress in the standings. Videos can be submitted to Desire2Learn’s Facebook page until July 8, 2013 then friends and family can vote on the videos they like until July 22, 2013. The contest winner will be announced via press release on July 29, 2013.
So, pull out that video camera and get to recording! It could mean some extra cash for education!
