The ninth edition of the Teaching with Digital Technology Awards, a student-elected program presented annually to faculty members at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology includes MIT Media Lab instructor Zachary Lieberman (Media Arts and Sciences). 

He was joined this year by his colleagues Eran Egozy (Music and Theatre Arts), Christopher Noe (Management), Anthony Pennes (Electrical Engineering & Computer Science / Mechanical Engineering), Scott Sheffield (Mathematics), Shen Shen (Electrical Engineering & Computer Science), and Eric So (Management).

Lieberman, the New York-based artist with past residencies at Eyebeam and the Barcelona Hangar Center, was honored for his deft integrations of digital technology into the classroom, joining other past recipients like Ben Fry and Alex Kilian. Outside of academia, clients such as the hit indie band OK GO are among his many arts and entertainment sector clients.
