[Josh Baron]

Congratulations to all of the winners of this year's Teaching with Sakai 
Innovation Award!

I would also like to thank Sue and Kate, as well as all of the other 
members of the Award Committee, for what I know is a significant effort 
that goes into the entire award program, from setting up the application 
process to organizing the judging and interviews.  Your efforts are a 
tremendous contribution to the work of the community!

The Teaching and with Sakai Innovation Award (TWSIA) highlights the core 
elements of our community. The TWSIA program chairs, Kate Ellis and Susan 
Roig, made a critical contribution in leading and managing the entire 
award process, with support of a strong committee. The panel of judges 
contributed their valuable time and expertise. IBM’s sponsorship and 
support from rSmart and Jon Wiley & Sons funded the prizes and travel for 
the participants. These collective contributions allow us to recognize and 
acknowledge faculty members that are leading innovation in teaching and 
learning, and to learn from their ideas in order to seed new opportunities 
for improvement and creativity.
On behalf of the community, I would like to congratulate the winners, and 
thank those who contributed to make these important awards possible.
