Seb Schmoller, Chief Executive of ALT, said, "Learning technologists play a crucial role in modern learning, teaching, and assessment throughout the education system. They run college and university virtual-learning environments. They develop eLearning content. Their research underpins good practice. But their achievements tend to be unsung. By celebrating and rewarding excellent practice and outstanding achievement in the field, the Learning Technologist of the Year Award will go some way towards giving learning technologists the public recognition they deserve."
