The EDUCOM Software and Curriculum Innovation Awards Program is
accepting entries for the 1993 competition.  The deadline for
submissions is February 26.  To request that an entry form be sent to
you, send e-mail to awards@cristal.umd.edu, or call 301/405-7534.

There are two categories in which submissions can be made:  the
Product Division, for original software designed to enhance student
learning, and the Curriculum Innovation Division, which focuses on
the use of technology by rewarding excellence in teaching with
computers.  There is no requirement that original software be
developed by the submitter to enter an application in the Curriculum
Innovation category, just that the computer be applied in ways that
meet an important instructional need. The innovation might be the
creative classroom use of existing commercial software packages; it
might be the adaptation of existing packages for educational use; or
it might be built around new software designed by the applicant.

Entries will be reviewed in the following disciplines, all of which
are at the undergraduate level except Law:

* Natural Sciences, which can include Astronomy, Atmospheric Science,
Biology, Botany, Ecology, Forestry, Genetics, Zoology, Chemistry,
Geology, or Physics;

* Humanities, including Area Studies, Communications, English
(Literature or Composition), Journalism, Foreign Languages, or
Philosophy;

* Engineering, including Aerospace, Chemical, Civil, Computer
Science, Electrical, Mechanical, or Nuclear;

* Mathematics, which can include Algebra, Calculus, Geometry,
Statistics, or other;

* Social Sciences, including Anthropology, Archaeology, Economics,
Geography, History, Political Science, Psychology, Sociology,
Statistics or Research Methods; and

* Law (Graduate level), which can include any area of specialization.
