Innovative Educator of the Year

Nominations are closed.

Do you know someone in your backyard that’s an innovative educator? Someone who deserves recognition for thinking creatively with regards to using technology in instruction?

Our aim is to highlight and recognize innovative educational practices—especially those that champion the smart integration of technology. This article from Edutopia may help you consider innovation in education and how your candidate works to make "significant positive change."

Entries will be reviewed by the Awards Committee, made up of board members of the Society and previous award winners.

Nominations will remain open through September 14, 2018 at 5 PM. Nominees will have until October 1, 2018, to provide supporting evidence to the awards committee and decisions will be made by October 15, 2018. Award winners will be recognized during the opening general session at the annual conference. They are also provided with a complimentary conference registration and hotel accommodations for the annual conference. This year's conference will be held December 2 - 4, 2018, in Virginia Beach.

Nominees must be members of VSTE, and can be from schools both public and private, can be advocates for education, and faculty and staff of higher education institutions.

Thank you for your time and consideration with a nomination!
