DELTA Announces 2017-2018 Grant Recipients
DELTA announces more than $236,000 in new and continuing DELTA Grants to 25 recipients across eight academic colleges. DELTA will provide continuing support for four Critical Path Course Redesign Grants from prior years (this includes staff support for each project, providing expertise in instructional design and media creation). In addition to two Faculty Fellows who will continue, one new Faculty Fellow was named to work closely with DELTA to deliver teaching and learning strategies to other faculty.
We look forward to collaborating with our faculty partners to create solutions to instructional challenges that promote the use of instructional technology and course design. With our goals of enhancing the technology-rich learning environment and increasing student success at NC State, DELTA staff members seek innovative ways to apply pedagogy and innovation through our DELTA Grants program.
