JUDGES’ COMMENTS
“Josie is responsible for groundbreaking work in the learning technology domain. Examples of
her work include:
Research and production of Childnet International’s Cyberbullying Guidance for schools, produced
under contract with the Department for Children, Families and Schools;
Leading Childnet’s Becta funded research on Young People and Social Network Services;
Running, voluntarily, the Edublog Awards, an annual event to select the best education blogs of the
year;
Paying a prominent role from its inception in the JISC Emerge project, the aim of which is to support the creation of a sustainable community of practice (CoP) that will develop and exploit new emergent technologies (e.g. social software, pervasive computing) in educational settings.
Josie demonstrates great enthusiasm and drive, and, through her work, has succeeded in raising
the profile of learning technology as a career choice.”
