成人抖阴

Since it creationin 2007, the 成人抖阴 Provost’s Investment Fund has seeded hundreds innovative, collaborative faculty projects.

This year the Provost’s Office has added a new Rapid Prototyping Grant program to promote the development of non-credit, master’s degree or certificate offerings that produce innovative learning settings and access for new enrollments.  Rapid Prototyping awards allow for six months of feasibility analysis before faculty begin larger-scale implementation.

One of the first Rapid Prototyping grants is supporting development by Professor Amy Stuart Wells of a 2016 Summer Institute on Teaching and Learning in Racially Diverse Educational Contexts. The grant builds on Provost’s Investment Fund backing Dr. Wells previously received to map 成人抖阴’s course offerings on race, ethnicity and inter-cultural understanding.

Other Rapid Prototyping efforts underway include a certificate program to help school personnel better serve immigrant populations; asynchronous online non-credit courses for teachers of reading; and a Teacher Tinker: 21st-Century Skills and Technology Boot Camp to help teachers more effectively use technology in the classroom.

Meanwhile, the Provost’s Investment Fund, which seeds cross-disciplinary faculty work, helped launch a new journal, Philanthropy and Education; an International Conference on Robot and Human Interactive Communication and a joint engineering and science summer program with Massachusetts Institute of Technology for rising minority high school seniors; an assessment of “learning agility” to meet changing work demands; and creation of an advanced, for credit certificate in medical education.
