Education Research Scholarship

The Education Research Scholarship competition is intended to support innovative projects that hold promise as models for the resolution of important issues and problems in anatomical education and represent new and creative approaches to teaching and learning.
– The scholarship may be in support of any anatomical discipline or program.
– The scholarship is intended to support practical initiatives and assist in evaluation of the results to determine effective outcomes.
– It is intended to encourage projects that show innovation and creativity in design. The Scholarship will be awarded to individuals who submit proposals that offer new ideas, practices, and approaches. The project needs to be well justified, carefully designed, responsibly managed, and include an assessment strategy that can effectively evaluate the success of the project.
– It is expected that the successful candidate will disseminate proven innovations developed during the tenure of the Education Research Scholarship to others through publication in appropriate journals and/or national or international medical education presentations.

Priority will be given to applications that demonstrate innovation in design and measurement of outcomes. While a well-planned evaluation component with measurable outcomes is acceptable, successful applicants will also include a description of the ongoing/formative assessments that will guide the development of the project.
