Circulated by Dr Liz Masterman, Academic IT Services, on behalf of the OxTALENT competition committee:
IT Services is pleased to announce the 2016 OxTALENT competition. As in previous years, we will be recognising and rewarding the innovative use of digital technologies to support teaching, learning or research, or to promote public engagement and outreach.
We welcome entries from staff and students in the following categories:
- Use of WebLearn to support teaching, learning or outreach
- Innovative teaching with technology
- Academic podcasting
- Outreach & engagement
- Research posters
- Data visualisation
- Student IT innovation
Awards can be given either to individuals or to groups. Eligibility is by no means restricted to academics and researchers; we welcome entries from the University’s libraries and museums, and also from administrative and support staff. You can either submit an entry yourself or nominate a colleague who has impressed you with their use of technology.
For further information and an entry form, please visit the OxTALENT website: http://bit.ly/oxtalent2016.
The closing date for entries is Friday 6th May. In the meantime, you can keep up to date on Twitter by following the hashtag #oxtalent2016.
