This year, we have selected our first two Art Hochner Travel Awards to defray travel to conferences for full-time non-tenure track and adjunct faculty, who typically do not have access to funding from their departments.
Among the inaugural recipients was Dr. Isabelle Chang, an assistant professor (teaching/instruction) in Psychology; she will be presenting “It all adds up: A Comparison of Eighth-Graders’ Mathematics Achievement Around the World” at the Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness (SREE) in Washington, D.C. next month.
The second awardee is Dr. Adam Vidiksis, assistant professor (teaching/instruction) in Music Technology and Director of the Boyer Electroacoustic Ensemble Project (BEEP). He presented one of his compositions at the International Computer Music Conference in Daegu, South Korea in August of 2018. Both projects included Temple students, showing the crucial relationship between teaching, research, and creative activity. The application process for this coming year can be found here; applications will be due at the end of September.
