Recipients announced for 2019-20 Teaching and Learning Grants
Funded by the Provost's Office and supported by the Taylor Institute for Teaching and Learning, the University of Calgary Teaching and Learning Grants seek to enhance learning experiences across campus. The grants were founded in 2014 through the Taylor Institute for Teaching and Learning, aiming to support the implementation, critical examination and dissemination of evidence-based approaches to student learning. Since then, the grants have awarded nearly $3 million altogether.
This year, approximately $780,000 was provided to a total of 39 projects. The latest group of recipients propose a wide range of ideas for compelling, research-integrated teaching practice.
