This is entirely not related to this blog or its purpose, but I had the opportunity to attend the National Newspaper Awards gala in Montreal Friday night. It's always inspiring to see what constitutes the best in newspapering every year at this gala, and to keep the running tab on the Globe and Mail vs. The Star vs. La Presse battle that ensues yearly.
I would also note, with some interest, that not one of the nominees or winners was recognized for anything to do with education.
- Education Reporter
- Cornwall, Ontario, Canada
- I am the managing editor of a small newsroom in Cornwall, Ont., responsible for all our local content online and in print. I have won a Canadian Community Newspaper Award for retelling the story of Winterbourne School, opened in the 19th century and closed in 2003. In addition, I have placed second in the U.S.-based National Education Writers' Association awards for "The ABCs of the EQAO," a five-part series on standardized testing. During the 2010-11 academic year, I was the Gordon N. Fisher Canadian Journalism Fellow at Massey College / University of Toronto, where I had the opportunity to audit several courses at OISE and visit schools in Germany and Finland. I still aspire to be among the best education reporters in Canada.
