GECDSB's HyperStudio Festival 2002

The Greater Essex County District School Board is hosting its 2nd Annual HyperStudio Festival to recognize and celebrate the great HyperStudio projects that are developed by our students. Each school will be encouraged to show off the multimedia authoring creations of its students. The Festival entries will be celebrated during Education Week 2002. Any projects with ties to the Ontario Curriculum are welcomed. Each school is invited to submit 6 entries. Ideally 2 entries per division. Entries must have no fewer than 5 cards per stack and no more than 20 cards per stack.

A cover card will be made available to be placed as the first card in the stack to identify school, topic, etc. Speak with your CAIT for more details.

Need some inspiration? Just what can be done? Check with your school's CIESC and look for the CD-ROM that was created last year composed of all of the entries.
