The SigTel Online Learning Awards celebrates creative educators for their pioneering use of tele-learning activities to provide innovative learning opportunities for k-16 students. Winners receive an invitation to present their project at a NECC poster session.
Mrs. Parks attended NECC 2008 in san antonio to participate in the awards ceremony held on tuesday, July 1. She also co-presented an IVC Showcase session with the CILC folks entitled “Students as Content provider: programs by students for students.” In addition, Samantha carter and ashley scroggins, joined the session via distance from Howe, OK. The students were a big hit with the session attendees. Ashley and sam even took the time to throw a lady lions play-off t-shirt all the way from howe, ok to san antonio, texas. Both students are members of the award-winning VFT team which placed first in CILC’s Kids creating community content contest.
Here’s one of the many comments from session attendees:
