Early Career Award Nomination Form

Nominations for the Early Career Award must be received by May 15, 2024.

The Board of Directors of the Association of Mathematics Teacher Educators has established an Early Career Award. The Early Career Award will be given on an annual basis, and the recipient recognized at the annual meeting of the AMTE. The purpose of this award is to recognize a mathematics teacher educator who, while early in his/her career, has made distinguished contributions and shows exceptional potential for leadership in one or more areas of teaching, service, and/or scholarship.

For selection criteria and more, please see the Early Career Award page.

Documentation Required for Early Career Award

Please be sure that all items are in .pdf, .doc, or .docx format, and are clearly labeled with the name of the nominee.

3. Additional letters of support (no more than two) from individuals knowledgeable of the nominee’s contributions relative to the focus area (e.g., colleagues within and outside of the individual’s institution, recent doctoral graduates mentored by the nominee).

Nomination Process

AMTE members can nominate a mathematics teacher educator who meets the criteria for eligibility. Self-nominations will not be considered. The three areas of teaching, service, and scholarship shall be weighted equally in the evaluation of the nomination materials. Nominees do not need to demonstrate exceptional work in every area, and may be considered for exemplary work in only one area. The committee will review applications in an electronic format; all application materials should be submitted as a single PDF file using the form below.
