Congratulations to the 2024-2025 OISE Teaching Excellence Awards Winners!
Teaching is a core mission of OISE, and it is vital for our community to recognize excellence in this central area of our work. Since 2004-2005, OISE’s Teaching Excellence Awards recognize faculty and instructors who have made significant contributions to teaching and learning in our Institute; thus, I am delighted to announce this year’s recipients of OISE’s Teaching Excellence Awards:

Award for Excellence in Initial Teacher Education

Award for Distinguished Contributions to Teaching

Winners are chosen by a committee of faculty, staff and students who have the very difficult task of selecting the very best from a strong roster of nominees, and I am very pleased to see their hard work recognized in this important way.
Special thanks to the 2024-2025 Teaching Awards Selection Committee: Becky Chen, Daniel Corral, Amal Madibbo, Krystina Raymond, Mary Reid, and Jesse Sims, and to Joseph Flessa, Associate Dean, Programs, for chairing the selection process.
The awards ceremony to celebrate the winners will take place on Thursday, April 3, 2025, at 2:00 p.m., in the OISE Library. In addition to celebrating the award winners and honourees, this year, we are also celebrating twenty years of OISE’s Teaching Excellence Awards!
