Within these four categories, entries are broken down into subject-specific subcategories. Outside of Periodicals, there are no audience subdivisions. Periodicals entries are divided into PreK-12 and Adult subdivisions only. You can view the subcategories below or view
the full descriptions here.

Judging
DAA entries are judged only against other products in their entry category and subcategory (i.e., Science resources are judged against other Science resources, Arts curricula against other Arts curricula). Please see the Judging page for more detailed information on the process and how you can be involved.
Finalists and Winners
DAA Finalists are announced in a press
release when the judging process is completed in April. At
this point, product and company names will be posted in the
Awards section of the AEP website. Winners are announced at
the AEP Awards Banquet & Gala in June in Washington, DC.
