Applicants will briefly describe the project they envision, with enough detail to provide a clear picture of the project but without technical or specialized description which would obscure the description's clarity. Applicants should give special attention to the following:
A. The purpose of the project: What are the objectives? What theoretical framework, if any, underlies the project?
B. The plan of work: What is the timetable for the work? What special tasks or processes will be involved?
C. Anticipated results: If all goes as expected, what can be the expected outcome of the project, and how will it enhance teaching or learning?
Normally an application will not include a letter of recommendation or statement of support from a dean or department chair. However, the Committee to Enhance Learning and Teaching reserves the right to request such a letter if the Committee believes that it would be helpful in making a decision on an application.
A brief, but specific, statement of how the grant will be spent (i.e., equipment, materials, travel, etc.)
