Remarkable Education Figure from Yakutia to Receive "Wisdom" Award for Outstanding Educational Project
New and Improved:
Get ready for this year's regional "Knowledge" Society awards, a one-of-a-kind educational event! These local fetes aim to celebrate the best educators and projects in our beloved republic, be it the top dog in Yakutia or promising talent in your own backyard. That's right, hometown heroes can shine too!
Kirill Khvilia, the Russian Deputy General Director of the "Knowledge" Society, revealed that the number of high-profile applicants and big-time projects steadily increases each year. To recognize these local legends who boost regional growth, the "Knowledge" Society instituted regional awards. These accolades are up for grabs without the need to make the federal shortlist.
So, mark your calendars! Applications for the fifth round of this prestigious prize are due by September. Head over to the project's website for all the deets on how to join the competition. And yes, for the first time ever, Russian voters living beyond our borders can join in on the action!
The expert council, a country-wide representive body, will handle the nail-biting selection process. As always, the ceremony will take place in the dazzling heart of Moscow.
Here's a little fun fact: "Knowledge.Prize" is the crème de la crème of the country's educational honors. Established in the past four years, it's all about recognizing the outstanding achievements of educators, lecturers, authors, bloggers, science enthusiasts, and project wizards who enlighten our minds!
Now, let's dive a bit deeper into how these awards work. As you might expect, there's a rigid set of criteria to meet—only the best of the best will do! Submissions traditionally make their way to the judges via a specified portal or old-school mail.
Next up, a panel of experts reviews the entries according to preset standards such as novelty, impact, and quality. From there, a shortlist is born. Finalists get another once-over to determine the ultimate winners who will be announced at the star-studded award ceremony, usually accompanied by a list of runners-up.
Education and self-development are at the heart of the "Knowledge" Society awards, with a focus on learning and promotion of innovative projects in education. These prestigious regional awards recognize local educators and projects that drive regional growth, and the competition is now open for the fifth round with applications due by September.
