Photo Blog 2008: National Environmental Education Week
In celebration of our biggest and best Environmental Education Week, the National Environmental Education Foundation (NEEF) is pleased to announce the "EE Week Photo Blog" and Contest* .
By promoting understanding and the protection of the natural world, National Environmental Education Week (EE Week) actively engages K-12th grade students and educators of all subjects in an inspired week of environmental learning and service before Earth Day.
Do you have a positive story of how you and your organization are bringing environmental education to students? EE Week would like to hear about it! Simply upload your own photos and stories on the new EE Week Photo Blog. Your story can be about activities either inside or outside the classroom, before, during, or after EE Week.
The EE Week Photo Blog Contest, which runs from April 23-May 23, 2008, is open to all legal United States residents affiliated with an organization which provides K-12 educational programs, 18 years of age and older and who have a valid e-mail account.
Each blog entry must include a photograph (with releases from all subjects) and text (of no more than 1,500 characters) that describe how environmental education is being celebrated in the classroom. Entries will be judged equally based on photographic and literary quality, visual appeal, the level of success and creativity that was achieved in bringing environmental education to the students, and the inspirational value.
NEEF is committed to protecting the privacy of children. For that reason, we request that blog submissions do not contain the name(s) of any minors. NEEF reserves the right to disqualify any submission that violates the Contest Rules, Privacy Policy, or Terms of Use.
NEEF will review all submissions, post all eligible submissions to the Photo Blog, and award the top three entrant organizations with the following: First Place: Canon PowerShot Digital Camera and SELPHY Photo Printer; Second Place: Canon Digital Camcorder; and Third Place: Canon PIXMA Photo Printer. Multiple submissions are accepted. Submissions can be posted year-round, but the 2008 contest period will run from April 23, 2008 through May 23, 2008 (see complete contest rules).
