A couple of projects that I am involved in are up for BC New Media PopVox awards.
The awards are part of Vancouver Digital Week, designed to celebrate the digital media industry in British Columbia.
The hyperlocal news website produced by UBC School of Journalism students, TheThunderbird.ca, is nominated in the Best Student Project award.
We are also nominated in the Best Digital Learning Initiative (Instructional Design) category for a digital learning initiative using CoveritLive to turn the traditional lecture into a participatory experience for students.
The PopVox Awards is a New Media BC initiative and are decided by popular vote. I would appreciate your support by voting for the projects.
You can vote for our entry for Best Student Project here and for Best Digital Learning Initiative here.
Voting takes place until April 30, 2009. Thanks for taking the time and good luck to all entrants.
