ILA Steven A. Stahl Research Grant

The Steven A. Stahl Research Grant was established in 2006 to honor the memory and work of Steven A. Stahl by encouraging and supporting promising graduate students in their research. This grant is awarded biennially to recognize outstanding work in literacy education research. The award provides US$1,000 to a recipient with at least three years of teaching experience who is conducting classroom research (including action research) focused on improving reading instruction and children's reading achievement. The grant supports graduate students who are making significant contributions to the field of literacy through evidence-based classroom research that aims to enhance reading instruction and improve student reading outcomes.
