QUT Learning Potential Fund: Changing lives, Inspiring Self-belief video tells the story of scholarship recipient Erica Marschall and how a Learning Potential Fund scholarship changed her life, the lives of the students she teaches, and the lives of the Murgon community in outback Queensland, Australia.
From the Judges
The panel considers this a case study in powerful storytelling with an effective focus on one student who was helped and went on to help others. With 82 entries, this was a very competitive category. Entries that were recognized by awards were distinguished by their clear messages, effective narrative storytelling, sincerity, and authentic sense of place. Overall, those entries that emerged as most noteworthy were those with clear purpose, straightforward messaging, strong storytelling, a singular institutional voice, and distinctive identity: that is, you could not necessarily replace the name of the institution with any other. The panel encourages all entrants in this category to share their work widely, as we learned something from each one of these videos, regardless of whether we were able to recognize them with an award.
