[ATTW-L] Announcing ATTW 2022 Amplification Awards

[Gonzales,Laura]

Dear ATTW members and colleagues,

As part of ATTW’s commitment to social justice practices and increasing organizational participation and supporting research from underrepresented scholars and teachers of technical communication, ATTW is offering three awards to recognize and amplify the important contributions of underrepresented students and/or non-tenure track faculty to ATTW and the field of technical communication. The award includes a conference registration waiver for the ATTW 2022 Virtual Conference and financial assistance ($500) to assist with research. Award recipients will be honored at the ATTW virtual awards reception.

Eligible candidates for this award include students and non-tenure-track faculty whose race, ethnicity, disability, sexual orientation, and/or nationality are underrepresented in the field of technical communication, including trans, non-binary, and gender nonconforming students and non-tenure-track faculty. Applications include a cover letter describing the applicant’s contributions to the field of technical communication and to ATTW, as well as a current CV. The Amplification Awards Selection Committee will prioritize applicants who offer significant pedagogical, theoretical, and/or methodological contributions to the field of technical communication.

Graduate student applicants may apply for both this award and the Graduate Research Award.

Applications should be submitted to ATTW Secretary, Dr. Ann Shivers-McNair shiversmcnair at arizona.edu<mailto:shiversmcnair at arizona.edu> by 11:59 PM PST on April 30, 2022.

Please feel free to contact Laura Gonzales with any questions at gonzalesl at ufl.edu
