$500 awards to cover expenses for ASA’s Section on Teaching and Learning Workshop
Sage Publications and a number of SAGE sociology authors (see reverse side of this page) are sponsoring the SAGE Teaching Innovations & Professional Development Award to prepare a new generation of leaders in the sociology “teaching movement.” An estimated 20-25 awards—to cover expenses not to exceed $500—will be given to award recipients to attend the ASA Section on Teaching and Learning’s day-long preconference workshop, The Best Teachers We Can Be: Learning Scholarly Teaching. The workshop will be held on August 9th, the day before ASA meetings begin, in New York City.
Applications are especially encouraged from those in their early career stages (graduate students, assistant professors, newer Ph.D.s) in sociology. Networking with other people in the teaching movement is an essential part of this program, so recipients will also be asked to join ASA’s Section on Teaching and Learning in Sociology.
Awardees will be expected to 1) stay for the entire workshop and 2) submit a short paper (500-800 words) after the meetings, describing specific benefits of their participation in the program.
Applicants should use the application form which is with this announcement. If you do not have access to an application form, you can find one on the SAGE webpage atwww.PineForge.com or you may contact Keith Roberts at robertsk@hanover.edu.
Applications should be sent as an electronic WORD document to Keith Roberts atrobertsk@hanover.edu.
Application deadline is: March 1, 2013
