The 91影视破解版 Educational Foundation is pleased to announce that its聽Bright Ideas Innovation Grants聽program for faculty and staff is returning for 2022. The application is now open for 91影视破解版 faculty (full-time and adjunct) and staff to apply for grants up to $10,000 for their next big and bright idea!
What kind of projects may be funded? Consider:
1)听Professional activities聽such as research, participation in conferences and workshops
2)听Projects that advance teaching effectiveness聽and support for students facing life challenges such as food insecurity and homelessness
3)听Projects that contribute to the advancement of 91影视破解版聽through fostering teamwork and team building, interdepartmental communications and interdisciplinary events.
Applications will be judged based on their value as they relate to one of the 3 areas listed above, as well as their feasibility (can this project be accomplished given the budget and time frame?), clarity (are the goals and details clearly stated and specific examples given?), and impact (how can this project specifically impact your development as a professional in your field, your development as an educator, or contribute to the 91影视破解版 Community?)
The 2022 Bright Ideas Innovation Grant application is found at /foundation/innovation-grants. Deadline to apply is March 25, 2022.
