Please note that the 2012 Grants round has now closed. An announcement on grants for 2013 will be made later in 2012.
Grants are intended to enable academic or support staff or teams to engage in innovation, or adaptation of existing innovations, to improve students' graduate attribute development and/or university experience in a specific context such as a subject, series of subjects or program. Projects must go beyond the routine updating of curriculum, resources or support services. Projects may include research or investigative components, but must also have direct impacts on students' experiences.
An overview of the UTS model of learning can be found in the UTS Strategic Plan 2009-2018 (PDF 106Kb). This short guide (PDF 274Kb) includes a more detailed description and some examples from previous learning and teaching grant projects and the practices of teaching and learning award winners.
The Institute for Interactive Media and Learning (IML) will run sessions to support staff in planning and applying for projects and evaluating project outcomes. Times and locations will be announced in Staff Notices.
