PK-12 Lesson Design Competition Awards Introduction

Hundreds of tiny, colorful, plastic cubes lay strewn across tables; dozens of ideas are being tossed about; and a crowd of people gather with a common goal of effectively integrating technology to improve teaching and learning. This was the PK-12 Lesson Design Competition at the 2024 Association for Educational Communications and Technology (AECT) International Convention. The Teacher Education Division (TED) of AECT sponsors this annual design competition. The professional community of TED members promote theory, research, and practice that supports teachers and teacher educators to design effective learning experiences for diverse learners.
