Teaching with Sakai Innovation Award application DEADLINE is extended to
allow for weekend submissions to Midnight GMT, Monday, March 2, 2009.
Are you a faculty member who engages your students using Sakai
(www.sakaiproject.org) or, know of a colleague who does so? If you
believe that you or someone you know has created a Sakai course which
transforms the learning experience, we want to hear from you. We are
looking for teachers whose courses best exemplify excellent teaching
practices combined with innovative solutions. Please share your story
with us and with other faculty around the world by applying for the
Teaching with Sakai Innovation Award, which is being sponsored this year
by IBM (www.ibm.com), with additional support from rSmart
(www.rsmart.com) and John Wiley and Sons (www.wiley.com) all of whom are
Sakai Commercial Affiliates. Check out our self-scoring rubric today to
see how your course stacks up at www.OpenEdpractices.org
Go to the same url to learn more about the award and access an online
application form. The application deadline is February 27, 2009, at
midnight GMT. Winners will be awarded a trip to Boston, Massachusetts,
to present at the 10th Sakai Conference and receive their award during
the conference.
Entries will also seed a collection of innovative practices in the
OpenEdpractices.org repository, a community of practice for teaching and
learning with open/community-source tools supported in part by rSmart,
the Association of American Colleges and Universities, and Marist
College.
