Best Buy Teach Award Recognizes K-12 Interactive Technology Programs

Deadline: October 12

The Best Buy Teach Award program recognizes creative uses of interactive technology in K-12 classrooms throughout the United States and Puerto Rico. The program rewards schools that integrate interactive technology into the curriculum in order to engage students and make learning fun. Awards are provided to schools that have launched successful programs using available technology; schools that don't have the most current equipment should not be discouraged from applying. Awards ranging from $1,000 to $10,000 in the form of Best Buy Gift Cards will be granted to accredited K-12 public, private, parochial, magnet and charter schools. To receive a Teach Award, the program must have been in use for at least one full school year. Applications must be submitted online by October 12, 2008 at: www.musserfund.org/harmony.php
