1st Annual eduStyle Higher-ed Web Awards
Posted February 19th, 2008 by Stewart Foss
eduStyle proudly presents the 1st Annual eduStyle Higher-ed Web Awards.
These awards celebrate the best work in college and university websites of 2007. Thirty-five categories recognize the most innovative and exciting developments in key areas of higher education web development.
Top-level prizes include best overall website, best redesign and most innovative. There are also awards in areas such as information architecture and video; awards for sub-sites (e.g. a faculty website), special projects and writing. Awards on blogging in higher-ed will be presented in partnership with CollegeWebEditor.com.
Each award will be given as both a people’s choice and a judged award. Judges are qualified people working in both inside and out of the higher ed web industry.
The awards will be announced and presented in person at the eduWeb Conference to be held in Atlantic City July 21-23, 2008.
eduStyle is a web design gallery dedicated to higher education websites and powered by higher education web design professionals. Users submit, review, and comment on sites they like (or don’t like). The aim is for higher ed web professionals to learn from and be inspired by the work of their peers.
eduStyle celebrated its one-year anniversary on January 24, 2008. In the last year over 700 higher-ed websites have been submitted to the gallery, and eduStyle gets more than 40,000 pageviews each month.
eduStyle is honoured to recognize the outstanding web work being done in higher ed. Nominations begin March 5, 2008. To find out more or nominate a site, please visit http://www.eduStyle.net/awards/.
