Best Practices in Education Award
Established in 2011
Informatics Europe presents the Best Practices in Education Award annually to promote teaching quality in informatics. The Award recognises outstanding European educational initiatives that improve the quality of Informatics teaching and the attractiveness of the discipline. Each year the Award has a different theme, and the winning initiatives demonstrate their applicability beyond their original institutions. Previous award themes have covered a range of topics, including:
- educational efforts in various informatics domains: cybersecurity; embedded and mobile computing; parallelism and concurrency,
- lifelong education and talent gap in informatics,
- inclusive education,
- transforming informatics education,
- informatics education for all,
- informatics education in primary and secondary schools.
Our last Award, in 2022, was about exceptional European informatics educational initiatives that prepare the workforce for digital transformation in the classroom or beyond, at the school or university level, or outside of institutions. On the the right of this webpage, you can find a list of previous awards, featuring the best practices of each year's winning proposal(s).
