Dr. Jessica Hartnett, Ph.D., an associate professor of Psychology and Counseling at Gannon University, this week was selected as the recipient of the Society for the Teaching of Psychology’s Mentorship of Teachers Award, a national honor.
Seungyeon Lee, Chair of the award committee, said Hartnett has dedicated a significant portion of her professional life to becoming a better teacher of statistics and supporting her colleagues as they do the same. For the last 10 years, she has been the editor of the Not Awful and Boring Ideas for Teaching Statistics blog.

She served as the chair of the STP’s Task Force on Statistical Literacy, Reasoning, and Thinking: Guidelines 2.0 in 2021. The committee was extremely impressed by Hartnett’s significant contributions both inside and outside of her home institution, including her mentorship work to the STP. An awards ceremony will be held in October.
