The award is presented at the annual Computers and Writing (C & W) Conference by a representative of the 7Cs. This year C & W will be held in Fort Worth, Texas, May 25-28 and is sponsored by Texas Women's University <http://www.eaze.net/~jfbarber/cw2k/bridge.html>. The recipient of this award is an outstanding leader in computer-based pedagogy who has made a continuing contribution to the application and use of computer technology in the field of composition studies (including scholarly work in language, composition, rhetoric, and pedagogy). In the typical language of exemplar awards, the recipient might be referred to as a living legend, an outstanding leader, or an electronic pioneer. In more friendly terms, this award might be called the Troublemaker Award. The recipient is a person who pushes the envelope, who moves us beyond the cutting edge to the bleeding edge, who is willing to open the technological Pandora's Box, knowing full well that for all the challenges and work that we'll meet as that Box is opened, we as community will be stronger and our classes better. A Technology Exemplar calls our assumptions into question, urging us to engage in an active search for new and exciting ways to accomplish our pedagogical goals in the composition classroom. Please send your nomination to Michael Day <[log in to unmask]>, James Inman <[log in to unmask]>, or Dickie Selfe <[log in to unmask]> by April 30. It should include specific details on the nominee's award qualifications. Nominations should contain information on accessing materials that demonstrate the nominee's work.
