Anne Brit Ingholm
Winner of the Lærerprisen
The 2023 Teacher's Prize is awarded to Anne Brit Ingholm, school librarian at Mailand Upper Secondary school.
In her report ‘I Do Think Teachers Care About What Sources We Use, But They Don’t Usually Say Anything About It’ Ingholm investigates the training students receive in source criticism and management. Source criticism is meant to be taught in all subjects, but Ingholm explores if there are structure and plans in place so that all students receive the same training.
The report shows how students perceive that the training they recieve in source criticism is deficient, and they want both more practical training and more feedback on the sources they actually do use.
The Holberg School Programme
20 upper secondary schools and more than 1000 students from all over Norway participate in the Holberg School Programme each year. The students are assisted by scholars, and the projects are integrated into the students' regular curriculum. Three research projects are awarded prizes of NOK 30,000, NOK 20,000 and NOK 10,000 respectively. The Teacher's Prize is awarded for the best educational programme in connection with the competition.
The finalists are announced in mid May, and the Holberg Prize School Project Award Ceremony is held during the Holberg Week in early June each year.

All submitted projects and the teacher's reports are evaluated by the School Project's jury. The jury for 2022/2023 has consisted of Jørn Ljunggren, Stina Helena Bang Svendsen, Hallvard Kjelen, Tale Birkeland Engebretsen og Elise Farstad Djupedal.
