The awards recognise quality Australian educational materials, with nominees judged for clarity of writing, pedagogical implications, illustrations, special features and characteristics, quality of subject matter, innovation and flair.
James Burnett, executive director of ORIGO says “The award recognises ORIGO’s investment in children’s education and is a tribute to the dedicated professionals within our organisation.”
Stepping Stones is now officially Australia’s leading online mathematics program. With an integrated package of quality support resources, it is the first program in Australia to give teachers activities to differentiate instruction within each lesson and across school years.
