Submit a nomination for the Pedagogical Prize

Criteria

A teacher working in undergraduate education, Master’s education, or doctoral education can be nominated for the Pedagogical Prize they have made outstanding pedagogical contributions by:

• demonstrating teaching skills and commitment as well as the ability to plan, initiate, and implement teaching that promotes development and learning among students.
• consciously and systematically making teaching connections to research based on research in the subject at hand as well as subject didactics and higher education pedagogy.
• initiating and driving the development of education and teaching in dialogue and collaboration with students.

It is these criteria that you should consider when nominating a teacher. Try to describe in your own words why you think the teacher meets the criteria and deserves the award. The most important thing is that the nomination shows the teacher's pedagogical strengths in relation to the criteria.

Keep in mind that the information given in your submitted nomination is the assessment group's basis for its own assessment, so develop your answers as much as you can.
