Montclair State University Network for Educational Renewal

The Montclair State University Network for Educational Renewal is offering the MSUNER Teacher Incentive Grant for the 2007-2008 school year. The purpose of this grant is to encourage teachers to enhance student learning. To accomplish this, a teacher can experiment with new teaching strategies, improve skills, develop a class project, etc. This grant is for a teacher who would like to work on a specific short-term project.

Projects will be funded in the range of $100 – $200, depending on the project. Funding will only be used for resources. The grant will give you a chance to try out a new initiative. If you think about it, you try out new ideas every year. Why not take this opportunity to receive some funding for your idea.

The Request for Proposals (RFP) outlines the requirements for Network funding. If you have any questions after reading this, please call Cheryl Hopper at 973-655-7641.

Proposals will be submitted electronically. There will be two submission dates for the 2007 – 2008 school year:
Early submission: proposals will be accepted through June 23, 2007, with notification of awards made by July 17, 2007.
Regular submission: proposals will be accepted through September 21, 2007, with notification of awards made by October 2, 2007.

We are offering two submission dates to accommodate everyone. If you already have an idea and want to work on it over the summer, the early submission date should be considered. If you think of an idea over the summer, you can apply in September.

A committee will review all proposals. Selection will be based on how strongly the project affects student learning and achievement. Grants will be distributed throughout the Network.

Proposal requirements:
Active Clinical Faculty status is required.
A brief written report will be due at the completion of the project, but no later than June 1, 2008. The report will include a log of expenditures and receipts.
