The National Association for Research in Science Teaching seeks to improve science education through research. To this end, the Association desires to recognize and reward individuals who have made significant contributions to science education through research. Contributions may be of several types-including, but not limited to empirical, philosophical or historical research, evaluative studies, policy-related research, and studies reflecting new techniques to be applied in research.
