JICB’s Fred Genesee Article of the Year Award is a competition open to all JICB articles appearing within biannual published issues. It is named in honor of Emeritus Professor Fred Genesee, a Canadian researcher whose work in bilingualism and bilingual education has had a major impact in the field of immersion and content-based language education. Dr. Genesee has also played an important role in supporting JICB since its inauguration in 2013. JICB’s Editorial Board selects award-winning articles based on the importance of the article’s research topic, the rigor and/or innovation of the research methodology, and the degree to which findings extend our current understanding of research issues in relation to immersion and content-based language education. Winners of this award will be announced by January 31 of each year.
