You can help us by nominating one or more individuals, teaching teams, departments, schools or jurisdictions who exemplify innovative practice in their work with students or colleagues in one of the areas. Nominated projects/activities should have demonstrated results in improving teaching practice and student learning.  Please consider all educators with whom you have been associated.  Those recognized will have their successes published in educational publications, such as the Alberta ASCD Scanner.  This way, others may contact them in order to benefit from their research and experience.
