Want to learn more about Adobe Spark while also creating course content and competing for prizes? Join the Seneca Sparklets competition! This is our brand new competition open to all Seneca faculty members!

Purpose
The purpose of this competition is to encourage the creative exploration of Adobe Spark for course content. Adobe Spark is a simple yet powerful content creation tool and all Seneca employees and students have access to it. We encourage you to consider how this platform can be used in your courses in both online and in-person contexts.

Goal
Using the board below as your guide, design three different projects which will enhance the learning experience of the students in your classes, and share your project links with your peers in our Wakelet collection.

Criteria
Select any three options from the board and start designing your creations in Adobe Spark. Once you are ready to share, upload your creation into the Wakelet collection.

Prizes
We have five gift cards to give away as part of this competition. To enter the draw for one of these gift cards, you must create three Adobe Spark projects and post them to the Wakelet collection.

Timeframe
The competition will run until December 11, 2020. Please ensure that you submit your Sparklets by the end of the semester.

Creating and Submitting your Sparklet
Once you’ve created your Adobe Spark, publish your project, generate a link, and paste that link into the Sparklet Competition Wakelet collection. Here are instructions on how to submit your Sparklet.

Please note: only Wakelet posts that contain your first and last name will be eligible for the gift card draw. And any projects not created in Adobe Spark will be ineligible.
