PALO ALTO, Califórnia, 10 de maio de 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Hoje, o Skype lançou o Concurso Sala de Aula Conectada, oferecendo às escolas de todo o mundo a chance a chance única da vida de ganhar uma videochamada Skype com as celebridades famosas Steve Harvey, James Patterson, Dylan e Cole Sprouse, Jackie Collins e Tinsel Korey*. Este concurso que está na página do Facebook do Skype na sala de aula, incentiva os professores a experimentar mais o valor das videochamadas dentro da sala de aula, dando aos seus alunos uma excelente oportunidade de conhecer uma celebridade face a face via Skype na quarta-feira, 6 de junho.

"Através das videochamadas Skype, podemos trazer a experiência de falar com atores, comediantes e autores famosos que querem retribuir, compartilhando sua história com os alunos", disse Andy Schmidt, chefe do bem social da divisão do Skype da Microsoft. "No Skype acreditamos que compartilhar as experiências de aprendizagem fortalece a educação. Este concurso tem por objetivo ajudar os professores a compreender melhor o valor das videochamadas dentro da sala de aula e demonstra ainda mais a crença do Skype de que as experiências de aprendizagem surpreendentes devem estar disponíveis para todos."

Para se qualificar a tomar parte, os alunos do ensino fundamental e intermediário (de três a 18 anos de idade), os professores ou educadores devem ser membros novos ou existentes do Skype na sala de aula, uma comunidade on-line gratuita que ajuda mais de 28.000 professores registrados a usar o Skype para enriquecer as experiências dos alunos.

Veja como os professores podem entrar no Facebook:

  • "Curta" a página do Facebook do Skype na sala de aula
  • Inscreva-se no Skype na sala de aula (se você ainda não for um membro registrado)
  • Descreva em 150 palavras ou menos de que forma eles usam atualmente ou usariam o Skype em sua sala de aula

Os professores podem enviar as inscrições a partir de hoje na página do Facebook do Skype na sala de aula até quinta-feira, 24 de maio às 23h:59min (horário da costa leste), quando cinco vencedores serão selecionados aleatoriamente. Os vencedores serão escolhidos e notificados na terça-feira, 29 maio às 14h:00min (horário da costa leste) via e-mail e serão anunciados publicamente na quarta-feira, 30 de maio às 9h:00 (horário da costa leste). As chamadas vencedoras com as celebridades acontecerão na quarta-feira, dia 6 de junho entre 10h:00 e 13h:00 (horário da costa leste) ou a critério da celebridade.

Com mais de 28.000 professores registrados e aumentando, em mais de 190 países, o Skype na sala de aula permite que centenas de milhares de estudantes de todo o mundo participem de valiosas experiências de aprendizagem compartilhadas. O Skype oferece uma forma imediata de ajudar os alunos a descobrir novas culturas, idiomas e ideias, tudo sem sair da sala de aula.

* As celebridades foram convidadas pelo 86400 movement e OpenEduTalk.

Sobre o Skype:

Skype é um software de comunicação cujo objetivo é derrubar as barreiras de comunicação. Com um dispositivo conectado à Internet, famílias, amigos e colegas podem se reunir de graça com mensagens, voz e vídeo. A um custo baixo, eles também podem ligar para telefones fixos ou celulares em qualquer lugar do mundo. O Skype introduziu recentemente o vídeo em grupo, permitindo que grupos de mais de duas pessoas façam coisas juntas sempre que estiverem separadas. Fundada em 2003 e sediada em Luxemburgo, o Skype é uma divisão da Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ: MSFT). O Skype pode ser baixado para computadores, telefones celulares e outros dispositivos conectados gratuitamente em www.skype.com.
