Innovative, practical, effective
The three main qualities that we look for in applications to the ELTons are innovation, effectiveness and practicality. The judges use their professional judgement to look for these three qualities in the entries.
It is important that you use the supporting statement to describe clearly and concisely exactly how your product is innovative, practical and effective.
Here’s a brief description of what we are looking for:
There’s something new about the approach
The product is useable in a variety of different contexts, realistic and easy to implement
The product is likely to lead to better learning or teaching
Eligibility
Products or services must have been completed no earlier than 2 years before the application closing date.
Products entered in the ELTons 2012 must have been completed on or after
We allow one submission per organisation, per category, including any overseas offices.
Products can only be submitted to one category.
Products can only be submitted to the awards once, they cannot be re-submitted in subsequent years.
You can’t resubmit a volume in a series if a volume has already been submitted in previous years. This is especially relevant for the Course Award. For example, you can’t enter level one of a course one year and then the whole course, or another level the following year.
