AVerMedia® Technologies, Inc., the leading provider of digital multimedia and presentation technology, announced today the launch of the AVerVision Lesson Plan Contest for North American K-12 and Higher-Ed classrooms.  Teachers and educators are asked to submit a lesson plan relating to one of six subjects including a document camera as the primary technology or demonstration device.   One new AVerVision document camera and $1000 will be awarded to the winner of each subject category.   Subject categories include: Mathematics, Science, English/Language Arts, History/Social Studies, Art/Music, and Other.   

The contest will officially be open between January 25, 2008 and April 18, 2008.  Winners will be chosen and announced by May 2, 2008.  The lesson plan itself should relate to one lesson or demonstration topic, in only one subject.  A document camera must be the primary demonstration device or piece of technology used to conduct the lesson.  Only one lesson plan will be accepted per teacher, and it must be submitted through the official contest webpage on the www.avermedia-usa.com/presentation website.               

Lesson plans submitted will not only be entered into the contest, but will be made available on the AVerMedia website as a resource for other educators to find fun and effective ways of using document camera technology in their classroom.  Grand Prize winners will receive a new AVerVision CP300 Portable Document Camera, as well as $1000 to be used for additional classroom technology purchases.  Lesson plans will be judged on originality, creativity, and effective use of a document camera in the lesson itself.   

“This latest contest is not only a way for AVerMedia to award exceptional teaching methods, but will also make those resources available to others,” says Grant Woods, Marketing Communications Manager for AVerMedia Technologies, Inc.  “By displaying these lesson plans online, teachers and educators can easily reference the most creative and effective ways of using a document camera.”
