This is an end of year homage to Teresa Almeida d’Eca, one of the most illustrious and hard-working members of the Webheads in Action Community of Practice.
Teresa, whose students have been featured on Dekita in a previous post, has been involved in ICTs since 1996 and is working against all odds to implement these new technologies in her EFL classes at the Escola EB 2,3 de Sto Antonio in Parede, Portugal.
I am very happy to report that Teresa was one of the 13 finalists of the international eLearning Awards 2007 and that her CALL Lessons 2005-2007, a curricular blog for 5th & 6th graders (1st-2nd year EFL) for learning English with the help of different Web 2.0 tools, has won the SMART Technologies award for the school of the future at the e-Leaning 2007 event organized by the European Schoolnet during the Eminent Conference held in Brussels on 6/7 December 2007.
Teresa, who has been documenting the work Webheads of many WiA along these years, shares a more detailed explanation of her own success on a wiki she opened to register the event.
Congratulations Teresa on your prize, given as a recognition to your diligence, inventiveness and commitment to your students and ELT.
