TTI fellowship deadline Oct. 27

The Teaching+Technology Initiative Fellowship Program is soliciting grant applications for the 2001 calendar year from faculty members who do a significant amount of undergraduate teaching.

Developing exciting, innovative uses of technology for teaching and promoting interdisciplinary discussions of effective teaching at the University are the main goals of the program. This year at least four different projects will be selected that not only integrate teaching and technology, but also show promise for spreading these advances to other faculty members.

Fellows will be provided with the hardware and software as well as the release time (e.g. summer stipend and/or course relief) necessary to complete their projects. Project budgets should not exceed $20,000.

An application form can be found at http://tti.itc.virginia.edu/tti_rfp.html. The deadline is Oct. 27. Fellows will be selected at the end of November to begin their fellowship in January.
