Curriculum innovation mini-grants – Additional funding available

April 14, 2021 by Chuck Busby

Missouri State University Faculty Center for Teaching and Learning

There is now additional funding available for curriculum innovation mini-grants. Awards are limited up to $1,200 per grant application.

Curriculum innovation mini-grants support faculty with ‘pivoting’ their courses during the ongoing Coronavirus. Applicants must complete an application indicating:

  1. What one change do you want to make to your course? i.e., better engage students with the content, create more engaging video lectures, determine better strategies for blended instruction.
  2. What do you think might help you with this change? i.e., document camera or other video equipment, digital tools that will engage students, not sure.
  3. How will you know if you were successful in creating this change? i.e., I will see better scores, I will have more engaging course materials online, my students will be more satisfied with their learning experience.

What one Fall 2020 recipient said about his award:

Damon Bassett – GGP; CNAS
Award: Digital Camera and GoPro HERO9
“ . . . developing virtual field experiences, [the] desire to provide better online experiences for students, we quickly realized that these tools could be used to make the geosciences more accessible as well.”

Mini-Grants are one-time funding and faculty should consider ongoing costs such as annual subscription services. Applications will be considered until the funding is depleted.
