Archive: NSTA Teacher Awards – Shining the Spotlight on New Teachers and Veteran Teachers, October 24, 2024

Did you come up with an innovative way to teach a lesson? Have you devoted your life to promoting science and the teaching of science? Did you successfully transform science teaching in your classroom? If you answered yes to any of these questions, then why not share your experience with others and apply for an NSTA Teacher Award?

The presenter will discuss the application process for the 2024-2025 academic year, share insights into completing your application, and provide tips for strengthening your submission for a chance to win prize money, materials, and equipment for your classroom!

NSTA Teacher Awards recognize preK–16 science educators in the United States and Canada who have had a positive impact on their students through innovative classroom science teaching.

All individuals receive a certificate of participation and 100 NSTA activity points for attending the live seminar and completing the end-of-program survey. A certificate of participation is not awarded for watching the recorded version of the program.

We invite you to register for upcoming web seminars at NSTA.
