Ginger Lewman is more than just a phenomenal educator and mentor, she is a trailblazer in the educational sphere. Her convictions regarding authentic learning experiences in a real-life setting are best reflected through her conceptualization and implementation of the Life Practice Model within the realm of Project-based Learning. I have been most impressed by her abilities to intrinsically understand to what extent the comfort zones of other educators can be stretched in order to bring them into the heart of a pedagogical break through.

Ginger inspires teachers and challenges them to be all that they can be. She eagerly shares her expertise to help fellow educators in her Personal Learning Network and is a leading guru on Problem Based Learning and Technology Integration.

Ginger is fantastic!!

Her knowledge and expertise is astounding. The best part is, she readily shares it with others so we can all learn to be better.

Having collaborated with Ginger several times in the past few years, I cannot think of anyone more deserving of the title "Innovator of the Year" than her. Her vision of education, her passion for executing that vision, and her commitment to doing what's right for kids is evident to anyone who comes into contact with her.
