The VACTE Educator-Researcher Award recognizes individuals who, at any point in their undergraduate or graduate program, design and implement a research project addressing a key issue in student learning and/or educator development.

Proposals may be submitted on behalf of any student currently enrolled in an initial licensure or advanced preparation degree program at a Virginia higher education institution.

1. The research proposal must describe current research and literature regarding the issue and clearly outline the proposed research project.

2. Project proposals are expected to exemplify strong research design and methodology.

3. The recipient of the award is expected to collaborate with their faculty mentor to prepare an article defining the research for publication in The Teacher Educators’ Journal, a publication of VACTE.

Awards will be given for research at various stages in the process, with preference given to those projects in an advanced stage of implementation.

Each award will include a certificate and a complementary spring conference registration.

Submissions are due no later than December 15, 2024.
