Nominate stars for ICT in Practice Awards
https://www.tes.com/magazine/archive/nominate-stars-ict-practice-awards
The message that comes through here is that in the ICT in Practice Awards, run by the British Educational Communications and Technology Agency and supported by The TES, Pearson and BT, creativity is important.
You don’t have to be an anorak, or an egotist, to win an award. The awards are not just for those who understand technology; previous winners have tried to change the status quo, or have used ICT to bring smiles to faces and sharpness to minds.
Added to this year’s awards is a new TES category for those new to teaching. We want to see what ideas will come from the generation that has grown up with ICT? The work of classroom assistants is recognised in another new category. Last year our judges noticed that assistants are at the heart of ICT work in many schools.
Winners will get pound;2,500, together with pound;2,500 for their school.
So who should you nominate? Anyone with ideas on improving classroom performance; anyone who’s doing something innovative and, above all, those who have achieved something that should be shared.
