MIT university is trying to build a free resource to help kids learn SAT/ACT thru the power of user-generated images and video.

There will be a small cash prize and iTunes giveaways. Due date is May 22.
More details at brainyflix.com/main/contest_rules. Do you have students or colleagues who would be interested?

So far there has been no response from NCTE in any form since the postings on the website of the Washington Post. The bottom line remains:
NCTE has approved of a plan that calls for
