By Paul Warwick
The British Journal of Educational Technology (BJET) awarded Louis Major the prize for best presentation in the EdTech field at BERA’s annual conference in Leeds this week.
Louis presented on the DiDiAC project in a session entitled “Digitalised Dialogues Across the Curriculum (DiDiAC): introducing TalkWall”. The session was rated on originality, significance and quality of the research, clarity of presentation, and implications for practice. The research design and interactive hands-on session style were especially commended by the BJET Editorial Board judge, Mark Nichols from the Open University.
Louis won a book token and certificate and was encouraged to submit a paper to the journal in due course, where it will be linked to the award and made open access.
