Entries for the 2009 Learning Technologist of the Year award are now open.
This is the third year that the Association for Learning Technology
(http://www.alt.ac.uk) has run the awards, which celebrate and reward
excellent practice and outstanding achievement in the learning technology
field - the broad range of communication, information and related technologies
that can be used to support learning, teaching, and assessment.
The Award will be presented at ALT's annual conference, ALT-C, during the
Wednesday Gala dinner on 9 September. This year ALT-C will be held at
Manchester, 8 - 10 September 2009. The conference has grown dramatically
in popularity over the past three years with over 700 delegates attending the
2008 event.
The deadline for entries is 21 May 2009. Interviews of short-listed entrants
will take place on 30 June 2009. The Award is open to all individual members of
ALT, and to individuals and teams based in ALT member organisations
worldwide.
First, second and third prizes will be awarded in each of two categories -
individual and team: 1st prize £1000; 2nd prize £600; 3rd prize £300.
The award will be judged by a panel chaired by Cathy Ellis of Becta, who is
this year's President of ALT; Bob Banks of Tribal; Donald Clark, a Ufi board
member; Josie Fraser (who won the 2008 individual award); and Rich Ranker of
Lancaster University (whose team won the 2008 team award).
