- EDUCOM's Educational Uses of Information Technology (EUIT) Program
- EUITNEWS Volume 2, No. 1 January 6, 1993
-
- The EDUCOM Software and Curriculum Innovation Awards Program is
- accepting entries for the 1993 competition. The deadline for submissions
- is February 26. To request that an entry form be sent to you, send
- e-mail to awards@cristal.umd.edu, or call 301/405-7534.
-
- There are two categories in which submissions can be made: the Product
- Division, for original software designed to enhance student learning, and
- the Curriculum Innovation Division, which focuses on the use of
- technology by rewarding excellence in teaching with computers. There is
- no requirement that original software be developed by the submitter to
- enter an application in the Curriculum Innovation category, just that the
- computer be applied in ways that meet an important instructional need.
- The innovation might be the creative classroom use of existing
- commercial software packages; it might be the adaptation of existing
- packages for educational use; or it might be built around new software
- designed by the applicant.
-
- Entries will be reviewed in the following disciplines, all of which are at
- the undergraduate level except Law:
-
- * Natural Sciences, which can include Astronomy, Atmospheric Science,
- Biology, Botany, Ecology, Forestry, Genetics, Zoology, Chemistry, Geology,
- or Physics;
