2. Move forward and don't look back  
3. See students as real people
4. Teach through relationships, inspiring, encouraging and nurturing
5. Recognize that further change is necessary, but understand that it is a process
6. Realize that teacher empowerment is the key element to technology integration
7. Expect success
8. Motivate through awareness and access to information

The winner(s) will receive an exclusive Making IT Happen jacket, an award certificate, a one-year ISTE membership, recognition at  ISTE 2018 conference in June and an invitation to the Making IT Happen reception at the ISTE 2018 conference.
