As President Obama called for new efforts to reimagine and improve education in science and math, the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation announced a $2 million open competition for ideas to transform learning using digital media. The competition seeks designers, inventors, entrepreneurs, researchers, and others to build digital media experiences the learning labs of the 21st Century that help young people interact, share, build, tinker, and explore in new and innovative ways. Administered by HASTAC, the Humanities, Arts, Science, and Technology Advanced Collaboratory ("haystack") through a grant to the University of California at Irvine and Duke University, the competition was planned and announced in partnership with National Lab Day, a movement to revitalize science, technology, engineering and math in schools that was highlighted at a White House event today.

For those of you who have followed the Twitter account we set up for the Digital Media and Learning Competition, thanks for following! The competition closes today at 8:00 p.m. Eastern Time (GMT-4) and then we'll begin the great sort. I was the person behind that Twitter account, and will continue to post occasional updates from it for our 260+ followers. As a one-to-many communication tool, Twitter is right up HASTAC's alley and allowed us to quickly grow an informal network of interested folks.
