AEA Assessment Grant Series

The Office of Academic Excellence and Assessment proudly sponsored a Summer Research Grant Program to provide “seed money” for a work in its early stages that is relevant to the assessment of student learning or develops a Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) project. This presentation series will feature faculty recipients who were successful in securing summer research grants and are anxious to share what they learned with you. Join us in recognizing their good work in the areas of assessing student learning and the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning!
