The Award, which will celebrate its first winners in 2009, will shine a spotlight on teachers who use all kinds of technology as a natural part of their professional toolkit to motivate children and young people in the classroom and beyond.
These teachers will be acutely aware of their pupils' appetite for technology and the different ways of learning that are best for them. Such awareness could include the use of mobile phone technology, games consoles, handheld computers and social networking tools as well as interactive whiteboards and laptops.
