AVERMEDIA® REWARDS TEACHERS’ IDEAS AND REFERRALS WITH INTERACTIVE DOCUMENT CAMERAS

 

 

 

MILPITAS, CA – September 1, 2009 – AVerMedia^® Information, Inc., the leading provider of presentation technology, announced today that a new milestone has been reached for the AVerVision Interactive Document Camera giveaway program. Since August of 2008, AVerMedia has awarded 23 CP300 interactive document cameras (a total retail value of $16,100) to educators across the country. The monthly contests run within the environment of the online teacher’ forum where educators are encouraged to share a plethora of information about teaching, classroom technology and best practices.

AVerMedia’s goal is to enrich the learning environment for students and enhance the teaching experience and these monthly contests help attain that purpose. The teacher forum has flourished with over 3900 members and over 7400 ideas from educators from all over the world. This fast-growing forum showcases the real world applications of various classroom technologies in creative and innovative visual lessons and contains topics ranging from classroom setup to lesson plans and technical support. Each member has something different to bring to the forum and new ideas are discovered every day.

The first contest is the monthly posting contest where one relevant post is drawn randomly and the author of that post is awarded a document camera. The more a forum member contributes to the forum, the greater their chances of winning. The second contest is the acclaimed friend referral contest. Each member has the opportunity to encourage friends and fellow educators to the forum and also learn from others. The forum member with the most referrals at the end of the month will be rewarded for their efforts with an interactive document camera as well.

The next winners will be announced October 1, 2009. Two lucky teachers will be able to start out the new school year with one of the greatest classroom technology tools on the market and many are excited about the opportunity.  Mary Richards of Monroe Elementary School in Janesville, WI, the winner of the April 2009 friend referral contest says, “Again, I am thrilled that this contest was available to teachers like me. What a great way to get a wonderful product into the hands of teachers and students! Thank you so much!”
