ANCAP and ORT University are organizing a contest for the submission of interactive content projects for Plan Ceibal devices, designed to educate schoolchildren aged 8 to 12 across the country about the characteristics of biofuels (biodiesel and ethanol).
ANCAP will award a single prize of $120,000 (one hundred twenty thousand Uruguayan pesos) for the production of the winning project, in which multidisciplinary teams must participate, consisting of a maximum of four advanced students from public and private institutions across the country in some of the following disciplines: Animation, Communication, Design, Education, Teaching, and Systems.
Each project must be submitted in storyboard format, with explanatory texts describing the idea and mechanics, as well as any other information that aids in its understanding.
A jury composed of representatives from ANCAP, ANEP, LATU, Plan CEIBAL, and ORT University will select the winning proposal, which will have a three-month deadline for implementation.
The deadline for submitting entries was March 30.
