The Instructional Technology and Innovation Micro Grant Program awards funding to faculty projects that advance new modes of instruction and assessment through technology innovations. Through generous funding from an anonymous donor, the program selected nine projects for funding in 2023. Recipients were awarded up to $50,000 for a one-year grant period and are asked to complete a brief report at the end of the grant year.
