Are you a practitioner, service provider, organisation, developer or manufacturer doing something innovative or transformational in learning, teaching or training using mobile computing technologies?

Do you know of someone or an organisation that is?

The Handheld Learning and Innovation Awards 2009, otherwise known as the “Handys”, are looking for nominations.

There are award categories for

  • primary learning
  • secondary learning
  • tertiary & higher learning
  • training & business
  • special needs

In each category they are seeking a practitioner and an innovation. There is also a special achievement award for the individual who it is believed has had the most impact on learning, teaching and mobile computing during the past 12 months.

In our region, Chris Tansey of Wyke 6th Form College won an award last year in the Special Needs Practitioner category!

Now in its second year the Handys is a rare opportunity to celebrate the heroes who are often at the sharp end of innovation in the world of learning and teaching practice – where real innovation is often not recognised or rewarded.
