Call for entries: Innovative Practices Awards
Entries are now being accepted for consideration for the Innovative Practices Awards from UNESCO Bangkok. The closing date for entries is 31 October 2007.
As part of the “Innovative Practices in the Use of ICT in Education” project, UNESCO has launched the Innovative Practices Awards, an initiative which aims to acknowledge and reward innovators in the Asia-Pacific region who are using ICT to change the way we teach and learn.
The activity will document good examples, so as to inspire others, and will use innovative activities as the basis for workshops which will multiply the impact of good efforts. The initiative also aims to build networks for educators to collaborate and share resources.
UNESCO has identified three award categories:
Teachers and teacher educators (in formal education),
Education planners and administrators,
Non-formal educators.
One winner will be selected from each category by a panel of judges. Each of the three winners will receive a certificate and an award (a laptop computer or the equivalent). Winners will be invited to an Award Ceremony, to be held in Bangkok, Thailand. All entries of merit, winners and non-winners alike, will be posted on the website of the UNESCO Office in Bangkok.
The UNESCO ICT in Education Innovative Practices Awards 2007 is sponsored by Japanese Funds-in-Trust and other partners.
