AAA Award for Innovation in Accounting Education

The American Accounting Association requests nominations for the Award for Innovation in Accounting Education.

The Innovation should have been implemented so that evidence of its success can be evaluated. Nominations may include, for instance, a set of teaching materials, an overall curriculum or program, a creative instructional strategy, or an insightful teaching approach. The awardee can be an individual, group of individuals, or institution.

Nomination letters are encouraged from those involved with the innovation, as well as from individuals who are aware of the innovative work done by others. The nomination letters should include the name(s) of the individuals or institution involved and a brief description of the innovative work, and be submitted no later than December 14, 1998. The Committee will request application materials from nominees.

The awardee will be announced in the Accounting Education News and presented with the award, which consists of a plaque and $5,000, at the 1999 AAA Annual Meeting. This award is funded by the Ernst & Young Foundation.
