Action Teaching Award

For 10 years, Social Psychology Network held an international action teaching award competition with two main goals: (1) to honor creative action teaching, and (2) to freely disseminate effective action teaching techniques to a wide audience. See below for award-winning examples. The award is now being administered by the Society for the Psychological Study of Social Issues.
