2011 - 2012 Development Stipends for Online Courses

The Center for Teaching & Learning Excellence (CTLE) is pleased to announce that stipends of $5,000 are available for full-time faculty interested in obtaining funding to assist with the initial development of a 3-credit online course created on the ANGEL Learning Management System or stipends of $3,000 are available for full-time faculty interested in obtaining funding to assist with the revision of a 3-credit online course currently offered on the Angel Learning Management System. For courses being revised, they must have been taught three or more years online to be eligible for the stipend. Stipends for one or two credit courses will be prorated.

Priority will be given to proposals that incorporate multimedia resources.  Faculty must have the course online by summer 2012 or fall 2012.

  • Intended audience for the online course;
  • Statement about why the course should be online and the benefits for it being online (100 words or less);
  • Course description;
  • Student learning outcomes and assessment;
  • Pedagogical approach for the use of technology in the course;
  • Plan for use of multimedia materials (e.g., audio, video, streaming materials);
