About the DLC IDEA
The Digital Learning Commons (DLC) is proud to announce our first annual DLC IDEA—Innovative Digital Educator Award—for K-12 teachers, administrators and librarians at DLC member schools.
The DLC IDEA celebrates a Washington educator whose innovative use of DLC tools and resources exemplify our core value to support student achievement through powerful teaching and technology.
$2000 Prize
The winner of the DLC IDEA receives a cash prize of $2,000 and will be recognized at a special award ceremony in Fall 2009.
We are grateful to our sponsor, Aventa Learning, for supporting the inaugural 2009 DLC IDEA.
