Given the success of the past three years, the Tranformative Technology Initiatives to Invigorate Instructional Practices (TIP) Challenge grants will be funded for the 2001 - 2002 academic year. TIP activities are designed to achieve two broad goals: first, to comply with Buffalo State College's mission and institutional priorities; second, to create an open budgetary process which allows for more input in advance of expenditures, provides rationale for choice of expenditures, and increases accountability through a public evaluation process.
All members of the campus community are eligible for funding through the TIP Challenge Grant program. TIP will fund several projects, with funds totaling $25,000, during the spring and summer semesters based upon the following criteria:
- TIP Projects are group, not individual projects. Projects developed by individuals from different areas of campus (e.g. cross-departmental, faculty/staff/students with common interest) will be given higher scores than projects developed by members of a single department.
- TIPs can be used to fund desktop hardware, software, conference hosting, consultation fees, and student support.
- Additional points will be awarded in the evaluation process for projects that focus on accreditation issues, and/or projects that promote the use of technology by students in instructional or program services.
