>>books. This includes collaborative teams as well as individuals.
>>The work of the late Sylvia Scribner, for whom the award is named,
>>reflects a wide range of research concerns within the field of
>>learning, cognition, and education. Her research focused on
>>cognition in relation to society and culture, and drew on a range
>>of methodologies, cut across disciplinary boundaries, addressed
>>multiple sites for learning and development, and included older and
>>younger learners. The Sylvia Scribner Award is designed to honor
>>work that reflects any methodology or conceptual perspective for
>>research on learning and instruction, so all research methodologies
>>and perspectives on learning and instruction that are represented
>>in Division C are eligible for the award. The recipient of the
>>award need not belong to Division C. Anyone may make a nomination,
>>including a self-nomination. The nominator should send a letter
