Today, I invited my En 100 students to create Christmas PowerPoint themes. If they email them to me, I will decide among the best themes and use them for class periods after Thanksgiving Break. I told them that whatever they send me must be their own work and must not include any copyrighted material. I also said that if they choose to email their PowerPoint themes to me, they agree that I may use them for any class that I teach during this semester or during a future semester.

The contest reward, small though it may be, is a Snack Shop milkshake certificate and my acknowledging the theme creator every time I use the theme throughout the duration of my one-hundred-year teaching career.
