RM Easiteach Announced as 2010 CODiE Award Finalist for Best Education Technology Solution for Productivity/Creativity


The Software & Information Industry Association (SIIA) announced the finalists for the prestigious CODiE Awards in the categories relating to software products and services. RM’s award winning interactive software, RM Easiteach is a finalist for best education technology solution for productivity/creativity. RM Easiteach is rapidly becoming the default software application for interactive classroom use. It has been designed specifically for the education and whole-class teaching markets. This engaging and inspiring software allows educators to fully immerse their students in the curriculum by involving interactive whiteboards and other interactive technologies in every subject.

Nominated products have undergone an intensive review by subject matter experts, analysts, journalists, and others with deep experience in the field. Originally called the “Excellence in Software Awards,” the CODiEs were established in 1986 by the Software Publishers Association (SPA). The program was created so that pioneers of the then‐nascent software industry could evaluate and honor each other's work. Since then, the CODiE Awards program has carried out the same purpose ‐ to showcase the software and information industry's finest products and services and to honor excellence in corporate achievement and philanthropic efforts.

The finalists will now be reviewed by members of SIIA, who will vote on winners for 31 categories. The winners will be announced at a special CODiE Awards Lunch on May 11, in San Francisco.
