 As any teacher will tell you, connecting with high-school students is hard enough. Getting them interested in finances is next to impossible. Still, Bank of America and Organic set out to do just that with their banner ad for "The Morris Code," one part of a series of "edutainment" sites designed to provide tips on the banking basics and the set-up of new accounts. Expanding on the pop-up book styling of the site, the ad used clever word games and MAD magazine-style cover folding to create awareness for their site, and earned 89 million search impressions for their efforts.
