Hello everyone,
On behalf of the Team-Based Learning Collaborative (TBLC), we would like to
make you aware of the TBLC call for research grant proposals. Below, please
find information on the proposals and how to apply.
*PURPOSE*
The TBLC supports and encourages research and scholarship in team-based
learning. To help its members participate in opportunities that provide
educational scholarship, the TBLC will provide funding to initiate new
educational research or evaluation proposals in 2016-2017. Project budgets
of $2,000-$5,000 may be requested, with single institution projects to be
awarded at low end, and collaborative multi-institution projects at the
high end. Two to four awards are anticipated, depending on the quantity and
quality of proposed projects. The TBLC seeks to promote collaborative
projects across institutions, and seeks to stimulate the development of a
community of educational scholars. Project proposals must be consistent
with published criteria for educational scholarship and provide additional
opportunities for others to build upon this work.

must acknowledge the TBLC as a sponsor of the work.
