The Communication Ethics Division of the National Communication Association invites nominations now for awards that will be presented at our 2011 division business meeting at the NCA Convention in New Orleans. We will recognize academic excellence in publications with a strong communication ethics focus in: single author book of the year, edited book of the year, and journal article of the year. Award winners are encouraged but not required to be division members. Publication must have occurred between August 2010 and July 2011 to be considered for the 2011 awards. In addition, we will present a top communication ethics teaching award to recognize achievement in pedagogy.
To make a nomination, including self-nominations, submit a cover letter outlining the merits and impact of the nominated work or teacher. For the teaching award, include evidence of teaching effectiveness as based on student evaluation scores and comments, as well as peer review(s) and a candidate statement of teaching philosophy.
