Teaching-Learning Grants

Teaching-Learning Innovation Grants help faculty make their teaching ideas a reality.

Got a great idea to improve how students learn in your course? Let the Center for Teaching, Learning, and Technology help you make that idea a reality.

Teaching-Learning Innovation Grants help instructors implement creative strategies that have a direct impact on student learning outcomes. While the concept of “innovation” may vary across disciplines, proposals center around an approach to teaching, or a resource to enhance teaching, that has not been widely explored at Illinois State University.

Teaching-Learning Innovation Grants are open to all tenured and tenure-track faculty, full-time non-tenure track instructors, and full-time AP staff with teaching responsibilities at Illinois State University. Individuals may be awarded up to $2,000, while teams may be awarded up to $2,500. Successful applicants will share their innovations with the campus community by presenting at the following year’s University-Wide Teaching & Learning Symposium, held each January.

Submissions must be received by Friday, September 25. Submission guidelines, evaluation criteria, and other important information can be found on CTLT’s website.
