The 2014 Edublog Awards is a community based initiative started in 2004 in response to concerns relating to how schools, districts and educational institutions were blocking access to educational blog sites. The purpose of the Edublog awards is promote and demonstrate the educational values of these. Once a year, about this time of year, we bloggers get ten days to nominate our favorites in categories that include:
- Individual Blog
- Group Blog
- New Blog
- Class Blog
- Student Blog
- EdTech Blog
- Teacher Blog
- Library/Librarian Blog
- Administrator Blog
- Influential Post

- Twitter Hashtag
- Free Web Tool
- Video/Podcasts
- Educational Wiki
- Best Open PD
- Social Network
- Mobile App
- Lifetime Achievement
Then, the good people at Edublog sift through and come up with a short list of nominees.
Nominate your favorite blog by the 24th of November (I’ll do the happy dance if you nominate Ask a Tech Teacher). Click here for the official Edublog nomination form.
Good luck to everyone below who’s hard at work nominating their favorites!
