PLanT and T&L Innovation funding schemes open for applications
12 October 2021
Two funding schemes for creative and innovative Teaching & Learning related projects are now open for applications, supported by the Centre for Quality Support and Development.
Partnerships in Learning & Teaching Projects
Funding of up to £500 for small-scale collaborative projects is available for students and staff to work together to identify problems, find solutions, and enhance teaching and learning at the University.
In 2020/21 the scheme funded a number of projects, including one which explored the experience of disabled students in the School of Law with blended learning, and the student-staff team’s work resulted in short and long-term recommendations.
Apply for PLanT funding by 17:00 Monday 15 November 2021.
PLanT projects showcase webinar – 11:00-12:00, 2 November 2021
Our showcase webinar will host colleagues and students who received PLanT funding last academic year to talk about their projects, on themes including blended learning, peer-assisted learning, and the experiences of disabled students.
Sign up to the event on UoRLearn.
