Hrabowski Innovation Award Proposals - Fall Deadline 10/25

Do you have an innovative, evidence-based idea for exploring or assessing student learning? Your idea may be appropriate for a Hrabowski Innovation Award proposal. There are four possible categories of the two-year award:

• Seed Awards have a budget totaling less than $3,500 for the twenty-four month period for an innovative small project.
• Adaptation Awards have a budget totaling $10,000 or less for the twenty-four month period. These awards support the adaptation and implementation of existing successful innovations into other courses, programs, or disciplines.
• Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) Awards have a budget totaling $10,000 or less for the twenty-four month period. These awards support the collection and analysis of data on the effect of interventions on student learning and success with the purpose of public dissemination and review.
• Implementation and Research Awards have a budget of $3,500 or greater, up to the total maximum amount of $25,000 for the twenty-four month period for the support of truly innovative, larger projects.
