Does your superintendent demonstrate exemplary vision in using technology to improve all facets of education—and show outstanding leadership in working to make this vision a reality?

If so, nominate your district’s chief executive for eSchool News’ 13th annual Tech-Savvy Superintendent Awards.

Nominees, who must be general superintendents of a K-12 school system, will be judged according to the criteria below. Ten national finalists will be chosen by the editors of eSchool News in consultation with last year’s winners. The 2013 winners will be honored in a ceremony held in conjunction with the American Association of School Administrators annual conference in Los Angeles and in the February 2013 issue of eSchool News.

Most successful initiatives are fueled by strong planning and implementation, but rooted in inspiration. The Success Stories section of the Atomic Mobilize solution shares key reflections from successful mobile programs to inspire school leaders and teachers to embrace mobile learning as an important part of a contemporary education.

For example, Atomic Mobilize subscribers can follow the journey of a junior high math teacher as he embraces technology and empowers himself and his students through incorporating iPads into his classroom lessons.
