Morning Bob,
Just been reading about Google Wave – don’t know if you have taken a look yet – looks awesome for classroom / multi school communication. Not sure when it goes past beta but looks promising.

Hi Bob,

I am writing to inform you of the Dell sponsored “Where Do You Like to Learn” contest, a children’s photography competition that celebrates the digitally connected world we live in. I think it may be of interest to your readers/followers.

As you know, knowledge these days can be shared from anywhere, anytime and any device. The competition is looking for inspirational and creative photographs of the widely varied places where school students can now benefit from technology in the 21st century to quench their thirst for knowledge, be it their garden, the park, a tree house – and far beyond the traditional classroom setting.

Check out the post on Dell’s K12 education blog edu4U Mark Horan, vice president and general manager of Dell’s K12 education business, tells us all we need know about the contest. The winner for the best photo will get a Latitude 2100 netbook and a tablet PC and projector for his or her classroom.

Our students today are preparing to live in a world that few of us can visualize, employed in jobs that may not even exist at the moment. Help us celebrate the connected world and spread the word by posting this link the edu4U site on your blog.

Thanks in advance – we look forward to hearing back.

Best,

Louisa
