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 two recognition programs: Program of the Year, and Teacher of the Year. The recipients of Teacher 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 of Teacher 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 of Program of the Year will receive a free MassTEC membership, admission to the following year’s MassTEC conference. The award recipient(s) will receive a one year membership to ITEA for up to 3 members of the department. MassTEC reserves the right to offer additional memberships in the category of Program of the Year due to extenuating circumstances. 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. The recipients for the Teacher of the Year and Program of the Year will be eligible to submit an application to the International Technology Education Educator Association (ITEEA) for consideration for the ITEEA Teacher Excellent or the Program Excellent Award. These awards will be presented at their annual conference. If you would like to recommend a program, or teacher for recognition, the Awards and Publicity Committee will send an invitation to the individual(s) involved to apply for an award.
