Roy C. Hill Award
Innovations '98

Three Peel teachers from Applewood Heights - Mr. Rawlings, Ms. Bilic and Ms. Fry - are this year's provincial winners of the Roy C. Hill Award for Innovative Teaching. Their winning submission was Lessons Online, something that all Applewood students are familiar with - - it's a web-based initiative that is used to develop Internet research skills and to deliver curriculum in a fresh and interactive manner. These online lessons are available free of charge to anyone with Internet access by going to the Applewood homepage and clicking on the apple beside Lessons Online. The aim of the award, which is administered by the Canadian Teachers' Federation and includes a cash prize of $2,500, is to encourage and reward teachers who have developed new ideas by recognizing the initiative and professional enterprise displayed in the development and successful application of important educational innovations. A description of this project will be published in Innovations '98, an annual publication of these award-winning teaching projects.
