CALL FOR PROPOSALS FOR INSTITUTIONAL COLLABORATION GRANTS
The Society for the Teaching of Psychology (Division 2 of APA) is pleased to announce a program of small grants to provide support to develop partnerships across teaching institutions. The goal of the program is to promote communication and collaboration between psychology teachers from different institutions. The grant program is open to members of the Society for the Teaching Psychology who teach Psychology at 4-year colleges and universities, 2-year colleges, or high schools. Grant funds can be used to defray the costs associated with meetings involving representatives from different institutions (e.g., travel, food), as well as for other collaborative projects (e.g., research collaborations). We have total of $3,000 to award. Proposals should not be longer than 2 pages in length and should include the following sections: a) applicants' names and contact information, b) title of project, c) objective(s) and anticipated benefits of the project, d) description of project goals and activities to meet those goals, e) methods by which you will measure efficacy of the project, and f) a budget (please indicate whether you would be willing to go forward with the project with only partial funding). Grant recipients will be asked to complete a final report on the outcome of the project. The final report will include an assessment of the efficacy of the project by describing such topics as how well the project met its goals and budget, and whether the partnership will continue beyond the life of the grant. Proposals will be evaluated on the expected impact (e.g., number of people involved in project and affected by project outcome, whether project leads to an ongoing, self-sustaining collaboration), innovativeness, geographic reach of the proposed project, and the extent to which project supports the mission of STP. In addition, clarity of the proposal and efficacy of the program assessment will factor into the evaluation of proposals. The funded projects must be completed during the 2011 calendar year.
