William and Edwyna Gilbert Award for Articles on Teaching

The William and Edwyna Gilbert Award for the Best Article on Teaching History annually recognizes outstanding contributions to the teaching of history through the publication of articles in journals, magazines, and other serials. Both the author of the winning article and the journal that publishes it will each receive the award. This prestigious award honors William Gilbert, a longtime AHA member and distinguished scholar-teacher of the Renaissance at the University of Kansas, and his wife Edwyna Gilbert, who left additional funds to supplement the original bequest. The award seeks to recognize excellence in scholarship of teaching and learning, methodology, and theory of pedagogy related to history education.
