Call for Nominations - IAMSE Master Teacher & Master Scholar Awards

Dear IAMSE Member:

At the 2007 annual meeting, IAMSE issued its first Master Teacher Award and Medical Education Scholarship Award. We would now like your nominees for the 2011 awards, which will be presented at the annual meeting in St. Petersburg.

The Master Teacher Award honors an IAMSE member who, over the course of many years, has consistently demonstrated extraordinary excellence in teaching, both at his/her institution and within IAMSE. Any teaching can be recognized, but nominations of members who have been active teachers at the annual IAMSE meetings or web seminars are particularly encouraged.

The Medical Education Scholarship Award recognizes an IAMSE member who has a distinguished record of educational scholarship, including educational research and/or dissemination of excellent and scholarly approaches to teaching and education. This could include development of multimedia medical educational programs, research in the areas of curriculum design and evaluation, student assessment, or innovative programs and methods.

These awards may be self-nominated, or by an IAMSE colleague. Details regarding each award, required materials, and deadlines are found in the download listed below. All nomination/application packets must be received by Julie Hewett (julie@iamse.org) no later than February 20, 2011. Nominations/applications for both awards will be reviewed by the Awards Committee in the Spring of 2011. Both awards will be given at the 2011 annual meeting in St. Petersburg.

Please review the attached criteria for submission.

Thank you,
Joseph P. Stein, PhD
Chair, Awards Committee
