As with past International Teachers’ Conferences, the AEC conferred AEC Awards on three of the shortlisted AEC Projects. The winning groups of the AEC Award 2004 were “iContrast@VHome”, the “Peace Project” , and “The Online Students’ Magazine”. The finalists contending for the AEC Award at the 4th AEC International Teachers’ Conference included “Ndolalak and Hambo”, a joint project among the high schools in Indonesia and Sweden, and “Science Beyond the Classroom”, a collaboration among the high schools in Finland, Indonesia, the Philippines, Malaysia, Singapore and Vietnam.

The 4th International was organised from 27 September to 1 October 2004 in Schleswig-Holstein, Germany, with the support of Kreisgymnasium Neustadt – an active high school under the AEC network.
