Two GA/TA Awards for Educational Practice and Educational Leadership

The Centre for Teaching and Learning is calling for nominations for the GA/TA Awards for Educational Practice (up to 2 will be awarded) and the GA/TA Award for Educational Leadership (up to 2 will be awarded) recognizing contributions from graduate and teaching assistants to the University's learning environment. The GA/TA Awards for Educational Practice and the GA/TA Award for Educational Leadership aim to:
- recognize and honour exemplary GAs and TAs who contribute to a positive, learning-centred environment at the University of Windsor;
- inspire GAs and TAs to recognize their potential for excellence in educational practice and leadership, and motivate them to transform that potential into reality; and
- publicize examples of excellence in GA/TA educational practice and leadership that can inform the practices of all teachers, while contributing to student and faculty pride in teaching and learning at the University of Windsor.
Eligibility
- The GA/TA must be currently employed at the University of Windsor or have been employed in the previous 12 months of the call for nominations.
- The GA/TA may still be nominated if they have previously won another teaching award (for example, at the department level).
Nomination Process
