Congratulations to Conor Kelly (Moyle Park College) and Donal O'Mahony (Portmarnock Community School) who both took major honours at the European eLearning Awards.
The eLearning Awards acknowledge teachers’ and schools’ best practices in the pedagogical use of ICT. Established eleven years ago they act as a showcase for teachers' creativity and technical skills, and at the same time show to a wider audience how ICT helps improve methodology, enriches classroom work and positively impacts on children’s learning.
