Summary:
"An open data challenge launched in June 2016 is set to reap benefits for both the education and private sectors in Northern Ireland. It challenged participants to create new and innovative resources using data from OpenDataNI, the public sector open data portal, to assist with teaching in schools.
6 winning submissions were awarded £2,500 to develop a prototype and two of these were selected for Phase II, each securing a £20,000 award to develop a fully functioning teaching resource, free of charge for schools in Northern Ireland for a minimum period of three years."
