Jane Lubischer works with students during a first-year life sciences survey class in Jordan Hall. Her distance education proposal is one of 29 funded by DELTA Grants this year.
DELTA has announced $240,000 in new and continuing DELTA Grants to 29 projects submitted by faculty and staff representing eight academic colleges and the Division of Academic and Student Affairs.
The grants are part of DELTA’s innovative efforts to create solutions to instructional challenges by promoting the use of instructional technology and course design. This year’s grants are being awarded in six categories: faculty fellows, blended learning, critical path course redesign, online and distance education, exploratory, and rapid design.
