Educational Development Grants can be used for a wide variety of teaching related experiences, such as

• the application of new technologies in the teaching of specific courses
• the development of new techniques to enhance instruction, to enrich resource materials, and to provide new learning experiences in specific courses and programs
• the development of new courses to support new programs or new areas of study
• the development of new techniques in such areas as advising, counseling, and library usage
• innovative use of our urban environment to provide a resource for certain courses or programs

The awards may be used for salary during the summer, release time during the academic year, student assistance, or necessary supplies and equipment. The funds may not be used, however, to replace any portion of the regular supplies and equipment budget of the department or college. Proposals may be for any amount, but may not exceed $5,000. The amount awarded may be less than that requested due to the limited funds available. Applicants must be represented by the WSU/AAUP-AFT agreement.

Please submit your proposal application (pdf) in PDF format using the EDG application form. Feel free to send questions about the grant to otl@wayne.edu.
