EMERGING TECHNOLOGY INNOVATION AWARD
REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS
OPEN TO ALL FULL AND PART TIME FACULTY
Do you want to improve classroom experiences by incorporating emerging technology or do you have an idea you just want to develop a little further with a colleague?
New York Tech’s Emerging Technology Group (ETG) is offering a request for proposals for new Emerging Technology Innovation Awards, with a focus on collaboration and interdisciplinarity. There are two options for the mini-grant awards being offered this summer to facilitate work on emerging technologies, with 10 awards available in total.
Watch this video about the awards program and get additional details regarding the Emerging Technology Innovation Awards below:
Two options are available:
$250 Exploratory Grant: collaborate with another faculty member over the summer to develop an idea for future development. Expected outcome: A working plan for developing technology with classroom implementation.
$500 Implementation Grant: work on an instructional experience for future classroom implementation. Expected outcome: A module or other classroom experience for classroom implementation.
The grants intend to foster collaboration between departments and schools with the ultimate goal of classroom implementation.
The grants will offer cash payments and the ability to borrow hardware and acquire software licenses where applicable.
