Tech for Teachers 2019 – Shortlists Announced!
Check out this year's nominees for the best in educational technology…
The nominations period has closed, the panel has assessed the entries, and from this point it’s all in the hands of the specialist judges – because the category shortlists for this year’s Tech for Teachers awards have been decided… and now the really deep assessment begins!
Tech for Teachers is a unique awards scheme, with genuine classroom impact at its heart.
In order to be recognised as five-, four- or three-star winners, products and resources must be as effective as they are innovative, demonstrating clear benefits for teaching and learning, value for money, and long-term potential.
Entries were invited across five, curriculum-linked categories – and, in order to ensure a level playing field, were completely free.
The judges’ final decisions will be announced in the January edition of Technology & Innovation magazine, and on teachwire.net, with a winners’ presentation to be held at Bett 2019.
