Recognizing Educators
The Scholarship in Teaching Awards program is designed to recognize contributions to education in the preceding year and promote teaching as a scholarly activity. Teaching approaches considered scholarly are characterized by 1) purposeful planning 2) systematic implementation and 3) reflection and assessment for improvement. The result should be an academic product that is actively shared and that will support the development of a community of teaching scholars. Interested individuals are invited to submit the Education Activity Summary (following pages) that includes a detailed description of an educational contribution that fulfills the criteria for scholarship.
In addition to faculty - fellows, residents, and medical students who have made significant contributions to educational programs are welcome to apply for this award.
In addition to projects from individuals who worked on their own, joint or group projects are eligible for consideration as long as the following criteria are satisfied:
g Awards will be limited to three individuals per project. Additional faculty can be
acknowledged in the announcement program at the presentation ceremony.
g Educational activity statements are provided from all project members
g A detailed description of each member's role in one or more of the following project
activities is provided: planning, development, implementation, evaluation
g Accepted “authorship” guidelines are adhered to: Everyone who is listed as an contributor
should have made a substantial, direct, intellectual contribution to the work.
General or unclear statements regarding member participation will impact the evaluation of the
submission as a whole.
Submitted descriptions will be:
1) Screened by an internal committee
2) Sent for an external peer review
3) Reviewed with the entire Education Activity Summary and all other available information
by an internal awards committee that will make final award recommendations
to the Dean
