The Joint Information Systems Committee (JISC), UK, has announced a blog competition for the education community. As part of the JISC Conference 2010, JISC is asking teachers, learners and researchers to share their experiences of technology around the event theme: ‘technology – at the heart of education and research’.
Entrants should write a blog post or produce a short video explaining how important technology is to their work in education and research. All entrants will receive reciprocal links to their blogs from the JISC website, with a chance to be part of the selected entries in a JISC publication on the topic. The overall winner of the competition will receive a flip camera, presented to them at the JISC Conference 2010, scheduled for April 12-13, 2010, at the Queen Elizabeth II Conference Centre, London. The deadline for entries is February 19, 2010.
The competition will be judged by Michelle Pauli, deputy editor of Guardian.co.uk books section and editor of the conference blog; conference keynote speaker Bill St Arnaud, chief research officer at Canada's Advanced Internet Development Organization; and John Traxler, professor of mobile learning and director of the Learning Lab at the University of Wolverhampton.
