Digication Inc., a leading provider of e-Portfolios, has received an "Award of Excellence" from Technology & Learning magazine. Digication was among a select group of Software and Web products honored by the prestigious 25-year-old recognition program. The award winners were selected for creating innovative applications that break new ground in some important way and also best-of-breed examples that demonstrate clear superiority over similar products in the market. This year's winners were chosen by more than 30 educator-judges who used the nominated products in computer labs at San Francisco Bay Area schools.

More than 1,500 schools have deployed the Digication solution. Its Web-based e-Portfolios allow educators and students to share ideas and achievements, improve communication and expand the educational experience beyond the classroom.

Since Digication is easy to use, teachers and students can instantly become engaged in building an e-Portfolio.

"This year's winning products reflect an impressive effort by publishers to respond to the real needs of schools," said Susan McLester, editor in chief of Technology & Learning. "The offerings being honored are practical, innovative and central to a variety of district and site operations."

Winning selections include numerous CD and Internet-based programs, as well as software running on handheld devices and several special hardware/software combination packages. Among the high quality offerings being honored are resources addressing management, safety, communication, differentiated learning and other key areas in education.

"We are proud Digication was recognized by Technology & Learning, and we are honored to accept our first award from the publication," said Jeffrey Yan, CEO of Digication.
