e-Show n Tell 2007

Announcing the e-Show n Tell 2007 Photo Competition Winners!

I’d like to congratulate our winners for the Photo Competition. Although there was only a small number of submissions received, the images shared were fantastic, and really added to the blog coverage. Fab stuff everyone!!

1st Prize

First place goes to Kathie Warren, who shared a great image which depicted her keen participation, but also the bandwidth/access issues many of our regional participants face. Congrats Kathie!!

Kathie said: My entry illustrates the perils of attending a 3-day online conference on a budget DSL account!!

2nd Prize!

Second Place has been awarded to Howard Errey who shared a great photo of people from his team engaging in the conference. The judges were particularly impressed that Howard walked the talk and submitted his entry via mobile fone! Well done Howard and team!

Howard’s caption: “What’s all this blog & wiki business? Show & Tell was never like this.“

Special Mentions

Special Mentions were also given to Mex Butler from South West TAFE in Victoria who’s entry depicted the central image of Ron Oliver’s keynote – on engaging people to the point where their brow is furrowed; and to Jan Roberts and Denece Sippo (and Jan’s hubby!) who submitted an entry which met the competition criteria beautifully and included some humour.

Special Thanks to ALL who participated and submitted an entry. Your images and captions were wonderful, and really helped to shine a light on the community engaged in the event.

Winners will be contacted within the next few days to arrange their prizes.

A fantastic entry from Kathie Warren…

Nice work Kathie… and I hope you don’t have to go without Internet access for too long!!

Another great entry just received…

This photo was taken (in our hotel room in Cairns) while Denece and I were helping Michael Chalk present his session about Community Engagement Projects. My hubby decided to take the opportunity to see if we required any service since we were tied to the computer so to speak!

A very creative entry from Delia Bradshaw!

Delia says: One time yesterday, as I was listening to one of the e-Show and Tell presenters, I turned to look outside, to think more deeply about the ideas in circulation, when this mural caught my eye.  It says a lot about the joy and magic of our e-voyage together, don’t you think?

A great shot from Howard Erray. He’s added a cool caption too – “What’s all this blog & wiki business? Show & Tell was never like this.”

A definite contender for the prize! Extra points for submitting it via mobile fone! Thanks Howard!

Another great entry from Alicia Boyle, Education Coordinator at Desert Knowledge CRC.

Alicia says: Chupa Chups are great first up in the morning – as recommended by Johnathan.

A great entry for the photo comp from Alicia Boyle, Education Coordinator at Desert Knowledge CRC.

Alicia says: We’re all into it here in Darwin early in the morning – 21/2 YO Nicolas was doing lots of ‘AH HAs’ to Sharon’s PD presentation – hillarious.

Thanks Alicia and Nicholas! A great shot and a definite contender for the prize!

As Michael Coghlan points out in his twitter…….

We’ve received our first submission from New Zealand from Joyce Seitzinger, eLearning Advisor at EIT Hawke’s Bay in New Zealand!

Joyce says: “Our submission from EIT Hawke’s Bay in NZ. We have set the conference up on the SmartBoard in our staff training room, so we can all chat about it at the same time (and coffee is just around the corner in the staff room ; )). It’s been great so far, not many people have seen online conferecning in action and it’s given me a chance to talk to some staff members I hadn’t met yet, as I only started as their eLearning Advisor a few months ago.”
