Summer Instructional Development Grants
The purpose of the Summer Instructional Development grants is to promote instructional development initiatives for transforming existing courses. We invite proposals for projects that aim to accomplish one or more of the following:
-
significantly alter the content of an existing course, e.g., incorporate relevant new research, incorporate diversity content and goals, alter the scope or focus to accommodate changes in the field, etc.
-
significantly alter the delivery of an existing course, e.g., incorporate experiential learning, add a service learning component, integrate technology into the classroom, etc.;
-
incorporate new pedagogies, e.g., address different learning styles, foster learning communities, foster diversity goals, etc.;
-
enhance the faculty member’s teaching effectiveness through engagement in creative endeavors that will feed back into the classroom;
-
support teaching and learning across disciplines, e.g., link two courses from different disciplines, develop team-taught courses, etc.
The above list is not meant to be all-inclusive-- other ideas will also be considered. Depending upon the nature of the project, the proposal may be submitted by a team of faculty members, by a department or program, or by an individual.
