Nicole Kraft received the 2016 David Adams Educator of the Year Award from the Association for Education in Journalism and Mass Communication Scholastic Journalism Division.

AEJMC’s Scholastic Journalism Division’s 2016 David Adams Educator of the Year Award.

Kraft is “a leader at our university — and around the world — at incorporating technology into classroom work,” wrote OSU journalism student Bruce Thomas.

Kraft has exported her vision of technology in the journalism classroom to several places around the globe, including as far away as Ethiopia. Her presence on AEJMC teaching panels and in scholar-to-scholar poster sessions focuses on her own classroom techniques and the research she does in evaluating those techniques.

Kraft will be honored during the division meeting Aug. 5.
