Academic Technology Grants: Call for Proposals

We are pleased to announce that the Academic Technology Grants program will be offered for the 2009-2010 academic year. The application deadline has been extended to give faculty an opportunity to reconsider submitting a proposal.

Prospective applicants are encouraged to develop proposals that forward their own professional development in using technology while strengthening student learning outcomes through making use of the new technologies that are becoming available on campus. Faculty who have never received technology funds and faculty wanting to collaborate with one another are especially encouraged to consider developing a project.

Please refer to the eLIS website for full details and requirements on submitting your proposals, including information on preparing a budget, supervisor approval, and policy on course releases and stipends. Proposals are reviewed by the technology liaisons.

Deadline for submission is Friday, May 29th at 5pm. Grants and supporting documents must be submitted by email to elis@lesley.edu.

If you have questions about developing a successful proposal or grant program requirements, please contact Rebecca Petersen, Director of eLearning Resources and Professional Development, at rpeterse@lesley.edu or 617-349-8973.
