Invitation to submit proposals: Provost Immersive Learning Initiative 2012-2013

The Provost Immersive Learning Grant can be used to fund an entire immersive learning project, equipment, some travel, as well as buyouts to ensure you have time to commit to the project.

Please click here for guidelines.

All copies are due to the Provost's Office by 5:00p.m., Monday, October 3, 2011.

The proposals are judged on your expertise, time commitment, budget requests, etc., as well as the seven criteria of immersive learning:

• carry academic credit
• engage participants in an active learning process that is student-driven but guided by a faculty mentor
• produce a tangible outcome or product
• involve at least one team of students, often working on a project that is interdisciplinary in nature
• include community partners and create an impact on the larger community as well as on the student participants
• focus on student learning outcomes
• help students define a career path or make connections to a profession or industry
