Elnstruction contest

For einstruction contest, we can divide up into groups. Groups into people who like to write lyrics and people who like to make music videos. Since we already did surveys and such to figure out how technology can be used in the classrooms and how it would be useful, we can put that into the lyrics or music video. This is good for us because we already have results and since teachers agree to learn about using technology, we can get their feedbacks.

Futureshop contest

For futureshop contest, we can make video on how we use tehnology in our classrooms and write about the beneficials. By doing that, they will see that we use technology in our classrooms and we are able to use it effectively. By taking pictures of people teaching lesson from the smartboard and doing group work on the computer will show that our school keeps up with technology. Also making video or taking pictures of our old/bad computers will show that our computers need to be upgraded. We can write about how our school has MaCs program and a lot sciences and math teachers use the technology like smartboard during lessons.

Staples contest

For the staples contest, I think writing collaborative essay would be good because everyone is going to be writing about the same topic. When you're working with other people you can just gather all the ideas and make one big/good essay, instead of having 10 essays about the same idea. Some ideas that we can write about are the switch club, gardening club, and such. Switch is one of the big ones to write about because our school was very sucessful with this and we have this at our school.
