Competition Opportunity: Doodle for Google

http://www.google.com/doodle4google/

School competition where students can win laptops/computers for their schools. As well the winner will win a 10,000.00 scholarship and a laptop…..

Welcome to Doodle 4 Google, a competition where we invite K-12 students to play around with our homepage logo and see what they come up with. This year we're inviting U.S. kids to join in the doodling fun, around the intriguing theme "What if...?"

At Google we believe in thinking big, and dreaming big, and we can't think of anything more important than encouraging students to do the same. So we hope you'll gather those art supplies and some 8.5x11 landscape paper and encourage your kids to enrich us all with their creative visions of our world, as it is and as it might be.

You'll find everything you need to get started here, including detailed lesson plans to incorporate the competition into your curricula. Registration closes on March 28th, and entries are due by April 12th. A panel of judges will select 40 finalist doodles, from which the public will help select a favorite to be featured on our homepage on May 22nd, 2008.

P.S. We'd be thrilled if you spread the word to your fellow educators.
