The topic for this, the inaugural ECAWA 20:20 Challenge is “Great Ideas for ICT in the Classroom”

Contestants will talk to up to 20 slides for up to 20 seconds per slide on an idea you have for using an application of ICT in the classroom.

Your slideshow must run from your own USB flash drive on either a Windows or Mac OS platform, with each slide set to automatically forward after 20 seconds.

Contestants will be disqualified if they go overtime, have more than 20 slides or take more than 20 seconds per slide.

The aim is to be creative and entertaining.

Judging will be undertaken by the audience, using two criteria: (1) the best idea, and (2) the best presenter, and a trophy will be presented to the winner.

The inaugural ECAWA 20:20 Challenge will be held at the end of the first day of the ECAWA 2010 State Conference, at a social function hosted by Craig Renshaw and av media systems.
