Great things happen in the Technology Education / Engineering classroom. MassTEC would like to support recognition for those individuals and groups who strive for excellence and provide their students with the best educational experiences. We are doing this through three recognition programs: Program of the Year, Teacher of the Year, and Lesson/Activity of the Year. The recipients of Teacher of the Year, Lesson of the Year and Program of the Year will receive a plaque and a $150 gift certificate to the vendor of their choice. The top two finalists as well as the selected recipient of Teacher of the Year and Lesson of the Year will receive a free MassTEC membership, admission to the following year’s MassTEC conference and a year's membership to ITEA. The top two finalists and recipient(s) of Program of the Year will receive a free MassTEC membership, admission to the following year’s MassTEC conference and a year's membership to ITEA for up to 6 members of the department. MassTEC reserves the right to offer additional memberships in the category of Program of the Year due to extenuating circumstances, or offer memberships in other categories if a program has less than 6 members. MassTEC reserves the right to restrict or reduce offerings of recognition due to unforeseen circumstances or an interpretation contrary to the intent of the offerings. If an individual would like to recommend a program, teacher, or activity for recognition, the Awards and Publicity Committee will send an invitation to apply for an award. Please send the name and contact information of the nominated person or program to Charles Corley, MassTEC Awards, 26 Cox St. Hudson, or to: cjcorley1@verizon.net The Awards and Publicity Committee will recommend the applicant finalists to the Executive Board. Professional Development Points Applications for all categories must be received before October 1, 2009. Applications may be downloaded here: Lesson of the Year |
