The process is in motion for the new round of OE Awards for Excellence. Here we provide what you should know about nominating a person or project for an award, how the winners are selected, when they will be announced, and updates along the way.
It’s time to start thinking of who and what have influenced or inspired you in the wide world of Open Education as we prepare to open the nominations for 2024 awards starting in May. A good place to start is the Awards Category Explorer as well as the Hall of Awards Fame.
What’s New?
- Be Award Inspired in 2024! Exploration and inspiration is our theme, tapping into the history of previous award winners as a means to be inspired to submit a nomination this year. See all the Awards Inspired tagged posts in OEG Connect for suggestions such as exploring the Hall of Fame, our Fiip Mixtape of Impact Stories from Previous Winners, Education for All– the 10th anniversary ebook, or listening to over 30 episodes of OEG Voices podcasts with previous winners.
