 Janine Lim wrote in a comment to one of my blogs: Ruth – can you explain on your blog what the last two categories of the awards are? I am not sure what fits into those categories…
I think Janine is referencing the following:
In an earlier blog I mentioned the CILC Symposium is occurring during the USDLA-sponsored National Distance Learning Week (NDLW), Nov 12-16, 2007. Through October 31, you can nominate someone or yourself for a NDLW Outstanding Service Award, which will be given to winning teachers, directors, vendors, and others working within the videoconferencing world.
Before I get to a response, here is some important info about CILC’s NDLW Awards—
     
NOMINATIONS CLOSE OCTOBER 31, 2007.
          BOOKMARK THE NOMINATIONS PAGE, BECAUSE IT’S WHERE YOU’LL VOTE FOR THE WINNERS
     VOTING OPENS NOVEMBER 1, 2007 AND CLOSES NOVEMBER 7, 2007
Here are the categories for CILC’s NDLW awards:
Award Categories
Content Providers
Collaborative Projects
Student Driven Projects
Professional Development for Educators
Support program(s) for Education (by Not-for-Profit organizations)
Support program(s) for Education (by For Profit organizations)
It’s the last two categories for which Janine asked clarification.
    Support program(s) for Education (by Not-for-Profit organizations)
Think ESC or BOCES or Region or ISD or SEGP or any other non-profit organization that has contributed vision, direction, action, or support to our professional niche. These folks should be recognized.
    Support program(s) for Education (by For Profit organizations)
Think for-profit company — a business that has donated or financed or created programs and/or services that have benefited our professional niche. These folks should be recognized.
So, move your mouse to the Award Nominations page and submit your nominee now.
