ANNOUNCING THE 8TH ANNUAL EDUCATION
SOFTWARE REVIEW AWARDS (EDDIES 2003)

         The ComputED Gazette is pleased to announce its 8th Annual Education Software Review (EDDIE Awards*) - awards which recognize innovative and content-rich programs which can be used by educators to augment the classroom curriculum and improve teacher productivity; or by parents and home-schoolers.  Last year's winners were selected from titles submitted by software publishers from around the world. Selection was based on academic content, potential for broad classroom use, technical merit, subject approach, and quality of management system. Deadline for submission of entries is June 6, 2003.
         At the conclusion of the awards, a list of winners will be released to the media locally and nationally, and posted at prominent educational websites and newsgroups on the Internet, including the ComputED website: computedgazette.com. Formal certificates will be awarded to winners, including digital and camera-ready promotional logos. Please indicate on the entry form  (1) if you would like the entries returned--and include return postage with the entry fee, OR (2) if your software may be used for previewing purposes.
