- See students as real people
- Teach through relationships, inspiring, encouraging, nurturing
- Recognize that further change is necessary, but understand that it is a process
- Realize that teacher empowerment is the key element to technology integration

- Motivate through awareness and access to information
More than 260 jackets have been awarded since 1995. View the complete list of recipients.
*Please note that organizations and groups hosting Making IT Happen events are responsible for selecting award winners that meet the above criteria.
