One of the major projects the AlgoViz.org team is working on is the AlgoViz.org Algorithm Visualization Awards. The Awards are intended to reward the creators of algorithm visualizations and systems that exemplify “good practice”, particularly in the domain of algorithm visualization in support of Computer Science education. The Awards are also intended to promote the development and use of algorithm visualization in the classroom. We also hope that the Awards process will also grow the public consciousness of the availability of quality AVs.

We’re still finalizing the details of the nomination and voting processes, so if you have some ideas, come on over to the forums to join the discussion.

More after the break.
