&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class="style1"&gt;&lt;span class="style3"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Rules:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Then make a 3 - 5 minute Camtasia video showing your entry and describing what component(s) you used and why your application is cool. Our judges will review the submissions and the best two will win a scholarship to Tech&amp;middot;Ed 2011, May 16-19 in Atlanta GA including air fare, hotel, and conference pass.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class="style1"&gt;&lt;span class="style3"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Judging:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;li class="style5"&gt;Most creative use of a component.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;
&lt;p class="style4"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Timeline:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
