Karen Morris, Shea Kerkhoff

Research output: Other contribution

Abstract

This editorial involves an examination of the award winners might reveal insights and historical perspectives about the field of English education as a whole and what “exemplary scholarship” looks like in particular. To that end, we invited doctoral students Karen Morris (Penn State) and Sarah Fleming (Syracuse) to conduct a content analysis of the 22 articles. Their analysis resulted in the distilled summary that appears in bulleted form later in the editorial; more on this process later. Next, we asked interested Emig Award recipients to write a 200ish-word commentary on the distilled summary. The author(s) from seven winning articles generously agreed to contribute; their responses are included in the second half of this editorial.
