The Photo Archives of Life Magazine

"Search millions of photographs from the LIFE photo archive, stretching from the 1750s to today. Most were never published and are now available for the first time through the joint work of LIFE and Google."

These are, of course, copyrighted, but Time said the photos are available for free for personal and research purposes. So, they would be OK to use in an educational multimedia project if you follow the fair use guidelines and credit the source.

Funny example of time lapse, and it also made me think of Chelley's T-shirt contest...

SmartPower Energy Smart Ad Challenge

This will be the classroom competition for those who wish to participate. Students who plan to go to the SkillsUSA competition in Alfred (Chelley, Andy Z, Megan and Rob) MUST participate. This can also count as either your 2Q Proj2, your 3Q Proj1 or your NCCC break project, depending on your individual schedule. In order to count towards the classroom competition, it cannot be handed in any later than the 3Q Proj1 deadline, which is February 5. The actual contest deadline is April 22, for others who may wish to participate later, or revise their entry.

Read the rules and procedures CAREFULLY!

Another mini project grade opportunity for Skills members

Check out the bulletin board for the guidelines for the Skills USA national pin design contest. This could count as a tutorial grade for Skills members. There are also Regional and State pin design contests for skills, but I do not have the specs for those yet. I'll keep you posted.

Mini-Project/Tutorial Grade Opportunity

The Early Childhood Ed class is looking for someone to design a single-color or 2-color t-shirt design for the preschool program. The name of the preschool is Niagara Preschool Learning Center and they are thinking of have a saying like Playing and Learning...It's What We Do or Learning Through Play. They would also be open to anything else that you might come up with.

This would count as one tutorial grade for this quarter. They would like something soon, though, so let me know ASAP if you are interested.
