I am going to circulate this through some more official channels. This email arrived today to ask that SQA and LT Scotland get news out. A number of Scottish centres and teachers benefited from earlier rounds of the Partners in Learning Project. Here is hoping we get some bodies to the European Finals and on to the World Final this year. If you twitter or use an rss feed reader - then why shouldn't you be first to know.
The details of the UK virtual competition can be found by joining the Innovative Teachers Network (ITN) at uk.innovativeteachers.com. The top ten entries will be invited to the UK Innovative Teacher Forum to be held in Microsoft Reading on 20 th February 2009 to share ideas and for selection to go forward to the European round (travel and expenses will be paid by Microsoft).
The ITN contains further details of the competition, examples of best practice and a forum to discuss the competition and pose questions. Entries will be sought that demonstrate technology making a difference in the classroom, are innovative and are transferrable in enhancing the learning & teaching practice of other teachers. The closing date is 1 st February 2009 .
A selection of teachers from the UK competition will go forward to the European Forum to be held in Vienna on March 24 th – 26 th (travel and expenses will be paid by Microsoft). UK teachers will be able to share best practice with others from all over Europe and also compete for places at the world final to be held later this year (this year’s world final was held in Hong Kong).
