The prestigious ISDDE 2019 Prize of $5,000 is offered for a substantial body of work, by an individual or a team, over a period of years that shows excellence in design for education in science or mathematics.
Nominations are solicited from Fellows, Members, and friends of ISDDE. Do not nominate a designer that belongs to the institution from which you receive compensation. Your initial nomination should describe the range of work and describe what it has achieved. In a separate paragraph, explain why you admire it. This should be no more than two pages in length. Please email to geoffrey.wake@nottingham.ac.uk
In awarding The Prize the judges will seek excellence in the art and science of design in education. The overriding criterion will be recognition of excellence by a wide range of designers and users but will be further informed by evidence, formal or informal, of:
- aspects of design that have moved the field of educational design forward
- aspects of design that have moved the field of mathematics and/or science education forward
- achievement of specific goals for improved outcomes
- use of research and the value of resulting insights
- systematic development through trials with well-identified target groups of users
- valuable unanticipated outcomes related to transformative effects in use
- surprise and delight – as in all good art
We will be working to the following timetable:
Closing date for initial nominations: May 31st 2019
Closing date for final submissions: July 15th 2019
Announcement of the award: September 2019 at the ISDDE Conference in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA.
