The Science Museum played host to leading figures in technology for learning from the Further Education (FE) and Skills sector, who gathered for the first ever Next Generation Learning Awards. Presented by broadcaster and comedian Sandi Toksvig, the evening celebrated the creative and innovative use of technology in further education and saw winners across seven categories, including the 'Furthering My Learning Award' voted for by learners themselves.
The awards were launched to recognise and reward the people in organisations that are making a real difference through their forward-thinking approach to learning. Part of Becta's 'Harnessing Technology' strategy, the awards also aim to showcase the contribution and impact of technology in further education, highlight best practice and raise awareness of the extensive benefits of technology to the learners, employers and communities as a whole.
