Photography Competitions For Students
Event promotion ideas needed!!! Urgent!!!?
I’m co heading my school’s library event which is a photography competition.
The problem is that response for entry submission is weak. We’ve done tons of announcements. Are there any other promotion ideas to spread across the message of this event?
The students in my school are between 13 – 16 years old.
The school has kindly sponsored the top prize as a canon digital camera, second prize as a printer and third as an ipod. 
I assume the idea is that the students themselves should participate. Advertising is only half of the story. Some students don’t realize that day to day is good enough to be subject matter for a photo.
Consider having one of your group members take a digital camera around and ask students to participate “on the spot”. Record the date, time and subject matter as well as the photographer and the participants names.
Post these pictures under a separate category and use the pictures as daily promotions leading up to the event. Each day, a new snapshot with a caption like….
“WHAT’S IN YOUR VIEWFINDER?”
Give daily recognition to those who participate in your on the spot shots and build excitement for the finale.
Make sure that even the on the spot photos get to compete.
Talk to whatever local radio/tv stations are most used by the students at your school.
Ad slogan “YOU DON’T HAVE TO BE ANCIENT TO CAPTURE HISTORY IN THE MAKING”
ask the students to photograph “a day in the life of…” and involve each segment of student life. Drama, athletics, band, sewing, cooking, janitorial staff, math class, biology…etc.
Good luck.

A Primer for Mathematics Competitions by Zawaira, Alex; Hitchcock, Gavin Edition ILL, 0 $37.49 The importance of mathematics competitions has been widely recognized for three reasons: they help to develop imaginative capacity and thinking skills whose value far transcends mathematics; they constitute the most effective way of discovering and nurturing mathematical talent; and they provide a means to combat the prevalent false image of mathematics held by high school students, as either a fearsomely difficult or a dull and uncreative subject. This book provides a comprehensive training resource for competitions from local and provincial to national Olympiad level, containing hundreds of diagrams, and graced by many light-hearted cartoons. It features a large collection of what mathematicians call beautiful problems – non-routine, provocative, fascinating, and challenging problems, often with elegant solutions. It features careful, systematic exposition of a selection of the most important topics encountered in mathematics competitions, assuming little prior knowledge. Geometry, trigonometry, mathematical induction, inequalities, Diophantine equations, number theory, sequences and series, the binomial theorem, and combinatorics – are all developed in a gentle but lively manner, liberally illustrated with examples, and consistently motivated by attractive appetiser problems, whose solution appears after the relevant theory has been expounded.Each chapter is presented as a toolchest of instruments designed for cracking the problems collected at the end of the chapter. Other topics, such as algebra, co-ordinate geometry, functional equations and probability, are introduced and elucidated in the posing and solving of the large collection of miscellaneous problems in the final toolchest. An unusual feature of this book is the attention paid throughout to the history of mathematics – the origins of the ideas, the terminology and some of the problems, and the celebration of mathematics as a multicultural, cooperative human achievement.As a bonus the aspiring mathlete may encounter, in the most enjoyable way possible, many of the topics that form the core of the standard school curriculum. |
