Kairos - Kairos Best Webtext Award

Organization: Kairos Online Journal

The Kairos Best Webtext Awards are given for the best academic webtext published in the previous academic year (the webtext does not have to be published in Kairos). Webtexts are texts authored specifically for publication on the World Wide Web. They could be scholarly examinations, individual and collaborative reviews, interactive exchanges between scholars, teachers, and practitioners, or extended interviews with leading scholars. All webtexts take advantage of the Web as a medium to present information in ways that traditional scholarly texts cannot. Please see the list of past award winners for some excellent examples. All webtexts must be publicly accessible via the World Wide Web. Hypertexts on CD-ROM are not accepted. Webtexts should reflect the field of computers and writing and may include scholarly examinations of key issues, as published in electronic journals; syllabi and course materials; conference websites and reviews; electronic forums for interaction; resource guides; and more. Webtexts should reflect outstanding work in both design and content, as each will be a key aspect of the evaluation process. All webtexts considered for the current awards must have been authored and published on the Web in the previous calendar year.
