We are excited to publish this year’s ICD Teaching Contest Winners. We received a comparatively high amount of submissions this year. Each submission was evaluated by three reviewers based on the following criteria:
- Innovation;
- contribution to international communication;
- connection with learning objectives;
- impact and learning outcomes.
The selection process was very difficult given the large number of strong and diverse nominations. Thanks to all the reviewers that volunteered to evaluate the teaching projects!
The following three projects are the winners of this year’s contest:
First Place: Lourdes Cueva Chacón, School of Journalism & Media Studies at San Diego State University
Project: Media in Latin America: Covering the pandemic
Second Place:Mel Bunce, Lindsey Blumell, Glenda Cooper, and Zahera Harb, Department of Journalism at City, University of London
