Edublog Awards – come celebrate!

Come and celebrate all the hard work that everyone has done this year:

  • exploring and demonstrating how social media can make a real difference to the effectiveness of our learning and teaching
  • battling restrictions and insecurities about new technologies and pedagogic practices
  • putting the learner at the center of formal and informal learning
  • making sure education is a creative, playful, enjoyable and worthwhile experience for all

The International Edublog Awards is now in it’s fourth year, celebrating and highlighting excellence in the educational use of weblogs and social media, drawing attention to the vast amount of cutting edge educational practice out there and making friends on the way.

The awards party is upon us: Saturday December 8 2007 @ 21.30GMT. For your local times please click through. We’re currently sorting out the hosting issues – the event will be taking place on the Island of jokaydia in Second Life.

Not able/wanting to join us on jokaydia? Why not keep track of all the action at one of our delightful  alternative locations? 😉

  • EdTech Talk supremo & long time awards partner Jeff Lebow will be hosting Ustream Simulcast and text chat at EdTech Talk   – You’ll be able to watch and hear whats going on at the SL location without risking anything, and join in with the party from there. You can find the audio only listen link are there as well.
  • There’ll be a two alternative SL spaces setup for people to meet and listen to the webcast of the event if we get too full on the Island of jokaydia:

  • Worldbridges Webcastatorium on Info Island. Special thanks to the World Bridges Team for sharing their space.
  • The Island of Terra Incognita. Special thanks to Decka Mah for sharing her space with us for the event.
  • For those of you busy doing your own thing, the tag is 07Eddies – please stick it on your awards related goodness!

Award recipients who would like to give an audio acceptance speech can either skype ‘worldbridges’ (or be skyped by worldbridges) or speak up in SL.

See you there!
