Re: Spring Call for UIIP and ETRA Proposals

Vice Provosts Patricia Turner and John Bruno are pleased to announce a 
cooperative effort jointly funding grants and resources to faculty for 
instructional support and instructional technology support through the 
Undergraduate Instructional Improvement Program (UIIP) and the Educational 
Technology Resource Award (ETRA).  A large portion of ETRA will now have 
bi-annual application dates tied to the UIIP application dates. 

This will enable faculty to combine requests for salaries, supplies and 
equipment traditionally associated with UIIP grants with requests for 
Mediaworks Resources/labor. The new educational technology component of 
these awards will be called "ET Resource Awards.”  This cooperative effort 
will facilitate faculty being able to apply for both UIIP and ETRA at 
the same time.

The application deadline for UIIP and ETRA is April 26, 2004.  Future 
deadlines will be mid-November and mid-April every year.

The applications for these joint awards will be combined into one 3-part 
application. Part 1 will be general information about yourself such as 
your name, department, the course to be improved, students numbers and a 
description of the project. This spring, this part of the application will 
be online for ETRA applicants, and can be accessed at 
http://mediaworks.ucdavis.edu/ETRA/index.cfm (kerberos login required).  

Parts 2 and 3 of the applications will be submitted as hard copies; 
instructions for Parts 2 and 3 can be downloaded.  When Part 1 is completed, 
Part 2 specifically addresses non-technology support requirements, and 
Part 3 addresses the technology support requirements.  UIIP applicants may 
apply using hard copies as described in the TRC website 
(http://trc.ucdavis.edu/trc/grants/faculty/UIIPcall.html).

If you have any questions or difficulties regarding this process, please 
do not hesitate to contact Ellen Sutter (egsutter@ucdavis.edu) or Tor Cross 
(vlcross@ucdavis.edu) at TRC: Ph: 752:6050; or Penny Farnham (pcfarnham@ucdavis.edu) 
at Mediaworks:  Ph: 752-2133.
