During a period of change and uncertainty, Duke faculty, staff and students sought to build purpose and meaning through the adoption of new teaching methods and learning technologies, as well as stay connected to one another while physically apart. While the end of the pandemic will bring much to celebrate, we also know that out of crises new opportunities and innovations can emerge. In light of this, Learning Innovation is excited to announce Carry the Innovation Forward, a new seed funding and technical assistance initiative for faculty who seek to use experiences from pandemic teaching to innovate the future of teaching and learning at Duke.
Carry the Innovation Forward is an opportunity to partner with Learning Innovation and benefit from our full team’s expertise in teaching and learning, research and development, digital learning technologies, project management, and networking facilitation.
We will provide support for successful proposals that align with one or more of the following four tracks:
- Research on Innovative Learning
- Exploration of New Learning Technology
- Re-envisioning a Course or Program for Flexible or Online Learning
- Faculty Learning Communities
Initial applications are due by 5 pm EST on Friday, February 19, 2021.
If you have questions, there will be a live Q&A session on Wednesday, February 10 at 10 am EST with one of the proposal reviewers. Click here to register. If you cannot attend that session, you may email us at learninginnovation@duke.edu.
We look forward to hearing your ideas!
