SIGTel Online Learning Award 2007 Winners
Sponsored by ISTE SIGTel, the Online Learning Awards recognize creative educators worldwide for their pioneering use of telecommunication networks to provide innovative learning opportunities for students in grades K-16. The awards will be presented at the National Education Computing Conference, held June 24 to 27 in Atlanta.
This year's SIGTel Online Learning Award winners have been selected from a field of outstanding international submissions. All projects were evaluated on the quality of the online learning activity, from planning through evaluation. In particular, judges evaluated the degree to which the project enhanced regular classroom activity, its achievement of goals and objectives, and the entrant’s reflection of the project. Thank you to Global SchoolNet for providing the judging system used to evaluate all the entrants.
