Australian Educational Publishing Awards

2011 Winners

The winners are:

Overall Joint Winner 2011

  • Yarning Strong Literacy Series (Larissa Behrendt et al, OUP)

Judges said, ‘This is true Indigenous publishing and very brave. It covers Indigenous issues and topics not usually discussed through Indigenous perspectives and without being patronising. It has great linkage to the curriculum, and really gives teachers the necessary tools to discuss heavy issues.’

Overall Joint Winner 2011

  • Jacaranda myWorld Atlas (Law, Nicholas, Kimber, Gibson, Chaffer & Burrows, Wiley)

Judges said, ‘This resource pushes publishing into a whole different league. The user interface is intuitive and easy to use, as well as being fun, and the design and programming is great. There is an amazing depth of information, and this resource is relevant for students throughout their secondary studies.’
