Proxima Corp., maker of desktop projectors, announced a new contest for educators, which will run February through June.

The new online game -- So You Think You're So Bright! -- lets educators test their knowledge and aptitude on multimedia, plus learn a few new tricks along the way.

Participants have several ways to become eligible for numerous prizes: monthly prizes, bonus gifts and a grand prize package. Prizes will include Proxima presentation equipment and software, and an array of products from participating partners.

Last year, the firm sponsored a "Win With Proxima!" contest in which over $30,000 in computer and projection equipment was awarded to teachers who submitted ideas for the most creative use of projection equipment in the classroom.

Access to the contest will be via T.H.E. Online and at www.prxm.com, their home page. Proxima Corp., San Diego, CA.
