We want to make our Facebook page a bit more fun for you and your family to use, so each day we will pick one question from the 23,000 questions we have in our quizzes and put it on our Facebook page. The first person to add the correct answer will be recorded and then the first person to get 10 answers correct will win a Gold Membership subscription on the ZaneEducation.com website (worth $200) to use our education videos.
After we have a winner we will start the competition again. Scores will be kept on our Facebook.
Remember that you need to click LIKE on our Facebook page to enable you to submit your answer as a comment under the question. And of course our monthly competition continues with one member of the page being selected to win our monthly competition prize.
So watch out for each new question every day and get the children involved as part of their day. Get them to work with you to find the answer on the Internet. You’ll all have fun and learn plenty.
First Question appears Monday 6th September! Get Ready!
I have to apologize for a quiet time on the blog for the last 10 days but we have a dilemma to overcome.
Since we launched this website, an increasing number of people have contacted us and explained just how many different types of students can benefit through using our online educational videos.
Zane Education (Zane Publishing Inc. in it’s former life) has had a well-established name in the school and home education markets since the mid 1990’s. And when we decided to convert our 250 educational CD-ROM’s into online video we always expected that it was the teachers, students and homeschooling families that would be our main customers.
However now that we are using the online video format - and most importantly that all of our videos are subtitled - we are seeing that many other types of students are benefiting from what we have produced. Those children include special needs students, gifted students, the disabled, children with dyslexia and reading difficulties, students with visual impairments, ESL students and especially children whose parents and teachers want to help develop their reading skills.
