Fiona Strawbridge (Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²ÊÖÐÌØÍø Information Systems), one of the competition judges, explained: "We hear about learning in virtual classrooms and virtual worlds online, but what is right for you and for Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²ÊÖÐÌØÍø? What are the important things? We want Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²ÊÖÐÌØÍø students to create a digital story lasting 2 to 4 minutes to help us answer one or more of these questions. We are interested in their ability to engage and persuade through creative use of electronic media but above all we are interested in the student's ideas."
