Apply for $8,000 education-reporting fellowships by Feb. 15

The Education Writers Association is inviting journalists to apply for its 2019 reporting fellowships to cover issues "focused on both the challenges and potential solutions to enhancing educational equity at the K-12 and higher education levels." Each fellow receives $8,000 for their project as well as other assistance. The application deadline is Feb. 15. Click here for more information.

The association is particularly interested in stories that address these topics:
  • The challenges facing low-income students in accessing higher education, and efforts to expand their opportunities.
  • Improving postsecondary education, with a focus on better serving disadvantaged students, as well as on under-resourced higher education institutions.
  • Increasing access to, and the quality of, STEM learning in higher education.
  • Improving the quality of teachers and school leaders (preparation, recruitment, development, etc.).
  • New models of schooling to rethink education, and innovative practices to boost achievement.
  • Developing new instructional materials and tools.
  • Enhancing parent/family engagement.
