WALLINGFORD, Conn.--()--Enterprise IP video leader VBrick Systems announced the winners of its first ‘Student Victory’ Video Contest. The contest attracted submissions from across the country, with participating students ranging from elementary to high school age. The ‘Student Victory’ contest was created to tap into the creative ways schools are using video to change the learning experience, leveraging the talent of today’s video-savvy students. As more students use video on a daily basis and a growing number of schools adopt classroom-based video technology initiatives like ‘flip the classroom’ and ‘1:1’ computing, our winners serve as great examples of how video can truly enrich the school experience for students, teachers and parents.
