=3E
=3E =3E Dear Colleagues,
=3E =3E
=3E =3E The European Academic Software Awards is a biennial event seeking =
out and
recognising the best in academic software and its use in Higher Education.
=3E =3E
=3E =3E This is a call for jurors for the Arts and Humanities section of the
=3E =3E competition - and for your help in finding them.  My apologies for
duplicates of this message.
=3E =3E
=3E =3E What does a juror do?
=3E =3E ---------------------
=3E =3E
=3E =3E You would receive two or three entries to evaluate - plus guidance =
on what
is required.  You would examine the software and it associated documentation=
 and
evaluate its usefulness. Then you would fill in an evaluation form for the
software.
=3E =3E
=3E =3E What disciplines are covered?
=3E =3E -----------------------------
=3E =3E
=3E =3E The Arts and Humanities section covers Visual Art, Design, =
Music,Theatre
Arts, History, Social History, Literature etc (as one would expect=21)  =
Needless
to say, you may be asked to look at entries that are not in your own =
specialist
area.  That is OK, because there should be a specialist looking at it too.
=3E =3E
=3E =3E Is there a deadline for the work?
=3E =3E ---------------------------------
=3E =3E
=3E =3E Yes - and it's quite soon=21  So this fascinating opportunity will =
not take up
all of your summer=21
=3E =3E
=3E =3E What reward is there?
=3E =3E ---------------------
=3E =3E
=3E =3E Well, like virtue, much of the reward lies in the job itself=21  I =
have been a
juror in the past and it really is interesting to see the very latest in
educational software, to try it out and to comment on its value and quality.
=3E =3E
=3E =3E Some jurors will be also invited to the final stage of the =
competition, in
the Netherlands (in November).
=3E =3E
=3E =3E European?
=3E =3E ----------
=3E =3E
=3E =3E Yes.  Entries are from many European countries, and we are looking =
for
jurors from as many countries as possible as each entry will be judged by =
more
than one juror and in more than one country.  In the Arts and Humanities =
section
there are entries that require jurors who are happy to work with Dutch, with
English, or with German.  Knowledge of other languages or other countries' =
HE
systems is an added bonus.

 =3E What happens next?
=3E =3E ------------------
=3E =3E
=3E =3E If you are interested in finding out more please get in touch as =
soon as
possible.  If you have postgraduate students who would be interested, please=
 get
them to contact us similarly.  If you know of any mailing list in the Arts =
or
Humanities, please fell free to forward this call.  If you have contacts or
colleagues in European universities who might be interested, please pass the
message on to them.
=3E =3E
=3E =3E This is an exciting and worthwhile event in the academic calendar - =
your
help with making it a success will be greatly appreciated.
=3E =3E
=3E =3E With all good wishes,
