Congratulations to the Nominees for the Teacher APPreciation Awards
Some of the student messages nominating their teachers for this award.
Building on our past Teaching Excellence Awards, this year's Teacher APPreciation Award put students at the center of the celebration. Young creators from around the world nominated the educators, mentors, and coaches who guided them on their MIT App Inventor journeys. Through social media posts, project videos, and personal messages, students shared stories of the teachers who inspired them to dream big and build meaningful technology.
All nominated educators received digital badges recognizing their impact.
These teachers represent diverse learning environments around the world, but they share a commitment to empowering young people to solve problems through computational action and code.
Here is the full list of nominated educators. Please join us in celebrating their work!
