Wow!!!

holcombehurd commented 11/13/2008

As the competition winds down, let me offer congratulations to all of our competitors.
No matter who is awarded the prize, this has been a win-win for all stakeholders.

We had a real world experience in producing meaningful content. Kudos to Interwrite Learning and Einstruction for developing a contest which put into motion concrete objectives.

Perhaps it’s time for us to create a “video community” where we share our work and push each other forward. Look us up on the web, we’ll be happy to answer. (Google RBB NJ)

Best wishes, and good luck in the competition.
