The judges said

"In choosing the winner in this category, the judges agreed that there is no better advertisment for an educational establishment than that its students produce great work, and that’s exactly what the 2010 Little Chip winner did as a key part of one of the judges’ overall favourite entries this year."

Shortlist 2010

  • Andreas Linden - University of Central Lancashire

 

The judges set a minimum standard for shortlisting any Big Chip category and felt only one of the student entries met this standard. That does not mean however that they will make this entry a winner.

The Big Chip award for student work is back. But this time it's open to higher and further education institutions from across the North of England.

Entries must be a digital artefact - such as a website, mobile application or animation - that could be used to promote some aspect of the entrant educational institution. Submissions should demonstrate creativity in the design of the artefact or in the way it is used to promote the institution, or both.

One entry is allowed from each educational institution. This can be the work of a single student chosen from individual entries by different students, or it can be a collaborative work involving a number of students.
