For 20 years, Learning® magazine has sponsored the Teachers' Choice Awards to recognize excellent classroom products, children's books, educational products for at-home use, and professional development. (In 2014, the Professional Development award category was added to highlight excellent products teachers and administrators can use to improve instruction and learning. Prior to 2014, professional development products were included in other categories.)
Once nominated, a nationwide panel of experienced educator-evaluators use each product in their classrooms and homes, seeking to uncover the best resources for teachers and parents. Items are evaluated on quality, instructional value, ease of use, and innovation. After two rounds of rigorous judging, top-scoring products are selected to win.
Learning® magazine, a periodical published by the Education Center, specializes in supplemental curriculum resources for preK-8 teachers and students. The Teachers' Choice Awards are recognized as a prestigious award for education materials, in part due to the awards' basis on classroom testing and teacher recommendations.
What does this award actually mean for Building a Culture of Hope? Many more educators will learn about the Culture of Hope when the book is highlighted in the April 2015 issue of Learning® magazine (with a circulation of over 150,000 teachers!). All year long, anyone who logs on to the Learning® website or facebook page will see the book highlighted in editorial coverage. When people see the book in catalogs, websites, or even bookstores, there will be a Teachers' Choice Award sticker announcing the award.
Oh, and we received beautiful plaques.....
