NOW SEEKING NOMINATIONS - OUTSTANDING UNDERGRADUATE SCIENCE TEACHER

**** 2014 OUSTA Award of the Society for College Science Teachers ****

Now is the time to nominate a worthy colleague, mentor, or teacher for this annual award! Nominations are being sought for the 2014 Outstanding Undergraduate Science Teacher Award (OUSTA) granted by the Society for College Science Teachers (SCST), an affiliate of the National Science Teachers Association (NSTA). This year's award is also co-sponsored by Springer Science+Business Media. A nominee need not be a member of the SCST. Nominations may be made by colleagues or students and self-nominations are also encouraged!

The purpose of the OUSTA is to recognize the achievements of our teaching colleagues who have enhanced the profession as outstanding teachers of science. This annual award is based upon a selection process that evaluates nominees according to the following ranked categories: 1) teaching excellence; 2) scholarship; and 3) service.

For details regarding the nomination and application process, visit http://www.scst.org/grants/ousta .

The deadline for application materials is June 1, 2013.

Won't you consider applying for this award and/or identifying your colleagues who are outstanding undergraduate science teachers so that they might be encouraged to apply for the 2014 OUSTA? The award includes a cash award, membership in SCST and NSTA, travel stipend to attend the next two year's national conferences, and more.  The awardee will be responsible for delivering a brief luncheon talk about teaching at the NSTA/SCST conference in Year One and a lecture about a topic of their choosing in their own discipline in Year Two.
