Nominate for the Excellent Teaching Award 2020

“The Excellent Teaching Award will now be more inclusive, allowing teachers not identifying themselves as male or female, to also be nominated,” says Kristin Törnqvist, vice-president and responsible for educational policy issues at Örebro Student Union.

This year, a new category has also been added, recognizing how a teacher has exhibited adaptability in dealing with unique teaching and learning circumstances due to the pandemic.

“We believe it is wonderful that the student union has broadened the award with this category. It is important to call attention to our teachers’ heroic efforts demonstrated this past spring when they quickly and creatively adapted their teaching due to the coronavirus,” says Anna-Karin Andershed, deputy vice-chancellor at Örebro University.

Do you have a teacher who deserves the Excellent Teaching Award for 2020? Then nominate the teacher on Örebro Student Union’s webpage. The nomination period is open 2 November–15 November.
