CIT Announces New Grants for Faculty and Instructors
Looking to incorporate new technologies into your teaching? There's still time to apply for grant opportunities through CIT, the Center for Instructional Technology. The deadline for these grants is January 31, 2008.
1. Strategic Initiative Grants support instructional innovations with technology, tied to Duke's strategic plan "Making a Difference." In particular, Chapter 4 of the plan "Academic Goals and Strategies to Build Distinction" focuses on academic and instructionally-related goals which CIT would like to support, such as interdisciplinarity, student engagement in real-world issues, providing engaging and challenging learning experiences for students, transforming the arts, supporting our graduate students, and innovation in creation and delivery of scholarly resources. Information about the grant and examples of potential projects are linked below.
Due date: January 31, 2008.
2. Blackboard Great Ideas Mini-grant seeks submissions of Bb uses which work well from all disciplines, in order to create examples and models for other Duke faculty. If you use one or more Blackboard tools in a way which works for you and your course, your colleagues would like to know!
Due date: January 31, 2008.
In addition, CIT continues to offer Jump Start Mini-grants and Faculty Fellowships, as well as non-funding support such as consulting, help with materials development and training. Visit their Website for more information at http://cit.duke.edu/help/grants
