The Four-Slide Contest
Over at dy/dan they’ve proposed a contest to sell yourself in four slides. It comes from a recent MBA program that has allowed entrants to sell themselves to the program by, get this, creating four PowerPoint slides printing them and adding them to the enrollment package.
I took this a step away from me as a person and created a show to sell my class to my students:
I’ve got two more stewing around in my mind. They’ll be up soon and then I’ll need to pick one for Friday.

This is AWESOME! I knew you would be the man to step up to the plate on this. You’ve got me on the run man, I don’t know if I can compete.
P.S. Glad you liked my “Your Brain in School” one.

This is a BRILLIANT idea (think the “Guinness Guys;”) and one I will have to steal.
I have a similar assignment for the first week of school:
Describe who you are in one sentence using one subject, at least one verb and as many adjectives as you choose.
Not as easy as you would think.
