Have you ever wondered who designs Google doodles - the quirky, spontaneous changes to the Google logo? Join the talented group of Google illustrators and engineers LIVE on an exclusive behind-the-scenes view into how the Google doodles are created. The Google doodlers will even participate in a live doodle-off …determined by YOUR votes.
Students can get in on the action by submitting their very own doodle to the Doodle 4 Google art competition. I know I've mentioned before, but Doodle 4 Google is an annual program that invites K-12 students in the U.S. to use their artistic talents to think big and redesign the Google homepage logo for millions to see. Tune in today, March 1st, to learn more about this year’s competition and amazing prizes; one talented student artist will see their artwork appear on the Google homepage, win a $30,000 college scholarship, and a $50,000 technology grant for their school.
Click the "Register" button on this webpage to sign-up for this first-ever live event from the Googleplex, brought to you by Discovery Education and Google.
No special equipment is needed to view this event online. All you need is an internet connected computer (and a way to share with students - projector and speakers). Students will have the chance to submit questions to ask live. If you can't make it at the live time, you can still register for the event and then you will be notified when the archive is available soon after the live event.
Also, don't forget, Doodle 4 Google submissions are due on March 22nd. This would be a great project for students to work on in between ISAT tests. You can click here to download the submission form OR let me know and I'd be happy to make copies for your class! It would be awesome to have some Roosevelt students enter!
