The ComputED Gazette is pleased to announce its 9th Annual Education Software Review Awards (EDDIE Awards*) - awards that recognize innovative and content-rich programs which can be used by educators to augment the classroom curriculum and improve teacher productivity; or by parents for home-schooling. Last year's winners were selected from titles submitted by software and website publishers around the world. Selection is 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 11, 2004. 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.
