Alison Henning, lecturer in the Department of Earth Science, has been selected to receive the Virginia and Griff Lawhon Digital Education Award for 2007. The award was created in 2005 to support the exploration of new and innovative applications of information technology for teaching and learning.
Henning received the award for her summer course ESCI 515: Geophysical Field Work for Educators.
