Doctoral Student Teacher Scholar Competition
This annual competition is held concurrently with the MMA Fall Educators Conference to recognize outstanding doctoral students. Judges select three finalists based on the written submissions. Each of the three finalists makes a 15-minute mini-teaching presentation to session attendees and the judges at the conference. The Doctoral Student Teacher Scholar winner is selected from the three finalists, with all three recognized for their achievement. The winner receives a $500 prize; the other two finalists each receive a $250 prize.
Please see the Call for Submissions for instructions and deadline information.
