Pando PR Tips No. 27 - EdTech Chronicle; Awards: Edvocate, ETD, EdScoop, T&L, eSN, CES & more

Lots and Lots of Awards

Wednesday, July 27, 2022 — We have a long list of awards and conference opportunities below but before we get to those, here's a plug for EdTech Chronicle (ETC) which is published by Derek Newton. Mr. Newton is the same person who publishes The Cheat Sheet, a well-written, often snarky newsletter about the state of cheating in academia. ETC, on the other hand, is for general education technology news including product and industry news.

I bring up ETC because they are running press releases now and taking opinion submissions. We've a good and close professional relationship with ETC and happen to know about some interesting new projects and growth that is afoot there. So, consider using ETC to send out your press releases or to submit bylines and commentaries. -- Jennifer
