ETEC522 --- Ventures in Learning Technology --- September 2009

My main pitch will be a private viewing for the students rather than being posted online for general public viewing on youtube as this is a real venture. The real marketing pitch will be video and selectively distributed, so I have done up a ppt that will be emailed to the instructor for distribution instead. There are fewer business “hard numbers” than in a real pitch but the principal will reserve that detail for a business plan.

The pitch is for a new AI system that is more powerful than others in the marketplace. This will be very useful for learning, in industrial processes, and many other fields. My pitch explores its use in teaching surgery. Ansi (A new synthetic intelligence) is a product already tested in pilot and applied in major installations in the field in aeronautics and industry.

Best wishes to all and I look forward to reviewing these other pitches! The pitch can be accessed if you email me at cavanaghuofg@gmail.com –I originally thought the instuctor distributed the the pitch with the list for private viewings. My apologies.

Convenience, Affordable, Permance, while enhancing employee productivity and the school’s reputation with one single investment in your campus tours!

Bluetooth Talking-Points Campus Tours would be automated guided tours for prospective students and families. The tours would be available in a variety of languages and can be simply activated by using a mobile phone, bluetooth headset and the embedded Talking-Points on site. For more information, check out my full venture!

Thanks Ernie and Barrie! I think I fixed it now. You can now watch the video. I changed the settings on my Youtube video.

FOR THE FULL VENTURE…. EMAIL me :   msirischanatgmaildotcom   or you can take a look at the Media Gallery as well on our blog. I uploaded the presentation there.

A Scripted Pitch on E-ducativa:

Me: “Hello.”

You: “Hi.”

Me: “Have you heard about E-ducativa?”

You: “No. I haven’t.  What is it?”

Me: “Well, let me amaze you! E-ducativa is a provider of learning platforms and open source systems for the Spanish and the South American school market.”

You: “So? What does that have to do with, at least, the Canadian or the North American markets, let alone the global market?”

Me: “Ah, excellent question! In fact, I was hoping that you would ask.  However, for me to REALLY pique your interest, you will have to view my PowerPoint presentation on E-ducativa.”

You: “Oh, I get it! This is an investment pitch! Sort of like ‘bait-n-hook’”.

Me: “Yes, this is an investment pitch.  But, no! This is not ‘bait-n-hook’.  This is bait and invest!”

You: “Well, I’m all about investing and making money.  So, yes, I will check out your PowerPoint presentation.”

Me: “Good! After all, as investors, we are all looking to make a return on investment!”
