inspirED digital story competition

One of inspirED’s aims is to encourage Australian educators to share their experiences with ICT so, to get the ball rolling, inspirED and Australian Teacher Magazine are running a competition to find the best and most innovative uses of technology in teaching.

Students using a computer in the library
Any Australian teacher can enter. Just make a short video or photo story (5 minutes or less) describing how you have used any type of ICT in the classroom to enhance teaching and learning. There are prizes for the two best digital stories.
  • 1st prize - a digital photo frame, generously provided by Australian Teacher Magazine
  • 2nd prize - free attendance at an education.au conference in ’08*
Selected entries will be featured on the inspirED website, where educators can view them, provide feedback, and engage in conversations with other interested educators. You should aim to provide the spark to encourage other Australian teachers to try something similar, or to develop your idea further.
Entries will be judged according to the following criteria.
Your digital story should:
  • demonstrate the application of technology in your classroom;
  • describe the pedagogy behind your use of ICT, and the learning outcomes your students achieved;
  • describe your experiences with the technology; and
  • discuss your future plans for the technology, what you might do differently next time, or how you might develop your idea further.

Entries are due by 20 June, and you can get all the information you need from the inspirED digital story competition - Entry kit [PDF 118KB].

You can submit your digital story on a DVD to:
