The Centre for Teaching Excellence is seeking nominations for the Amit and Meena Chakma Awards for Exceptional Teaching by a Student. From the Centre for Teaching Excellence web site:

The awards are open to all students who have a formal teaching role at the University of Waterloo. Four awards are given annually in recognition of excellence in teaching of all kinds by registered students (e.g., teaching assistant, laboratory demonstrator, sessional lecturer). The Selection Committee considers intellectual vigour and communication skills in the interpretation and presentation of subject matter. Concern for and sensitivity to the academic need of the students is an important criterion.

Recipients receive a cash award, a certificate, and special acknowledgement at convocation when they graduate.

If you have encountered excellent teaching by a student, please complete the nomination form (Word) and send it to Verna Keller before the deadline.
