| IRA Dina Feitelson Research Award | Updated May 24th, 2010 |
 The International Reading Association’s Dina Feitelson Research Award was established to honor the memory of Dina Feitelson. The award recognizes an outstanding empirical study that was published in English in a refereed journal and that reports on an investigation of aspects of literacy acquisition such as phonemic awareness, the alphabetic principle, bilingualism, home influences on literacy development, or cross-cultural studies of beginning reading. The results of the study should have clear implications for instruction. Empirical studies involve the collection of original data from direct experimentation or observation. Articles that develop theory without data, secondary reviews of the literature, or descriptions of the practical application of a theory are not eligible for this competition. The author(s) of the selected work will receive recognition at the Research Awards Luncheon of the Reading Research Conference in Minneapolis, Minnesota (one day prior to the International Reading Association’s Annual Convention). The selected author (s) will be notified of this information in January 2011. The quality of the publication is evaluated with respect to the following criteria: significance of the issue under investigation, appropriateness of methodology used to investigate the topic or problem, presentation and analysis of data, appropriateness of conclusions/interpretations, and implications of the study for school or classroom practice. For the 2009 award year, works published between January 2009 and December 2007, may be nominated. Manuscripts may be submitted for consideration by researchers, authors, and others. Two good quality, clear and complete copies of the published paper should be submitted with full bibliographic information identifying the author(s), source and publication date. Please use the cover sheet enclosed. send: Complete MS looking for: Article specifically: Educational/Career |

The Committee on Honors and Awards of the Modern Language Association invites translators and publishers to compete for the eighth Aldo and Jeanne Scaglione Prize for a Translation of a Literary Work. The prize is awarded each even-numbered year for an outstanding translation into English of a book-length literary work. For the competition held in 2011, translations published in 2010 are eligible. The award will be presented to the winning translator at the association's annual convention in December 2011. To enter a translation into the competition, authors or publishers should send six copies along with brief biographical and professional data about translator(s), a total of 12-15 pages of the text in its original language taken from the beginning, middle, and end of the work, and a letter identifying the work. Note: The first three competitions for the Aldo and Jeanne Scaglione Prize for a Translation of a Literary Work were biennial; that is, translations published in either of the two years preceding the year of the award were eligible. Beginning in 1999, the MLA offers two complementary awards: the Scaglione Prize for a Translation of a Literary Work, offered in even-numbered years for books published in the previous year; and the Lois Roth Award, offered in odd-numbered years for books published in the previous year. send: Complete MS looking for: Novel specifically: Translation |
