Proposal Form
The ITTL proposal must address the following aspects of
the project's effort:
-
Project Overview
-
Rationale/Benefits to students and college
-
People involved
-
Anticipated cost of software, hardware and technical support
needed
-
Anticipated travel expense and justification for travel and
conference
-
Detailed Timeline (dates of project implementation, dates of
travel, dates of equipment purchases)
-
Detailed budget (including anticipated shipping costs, stipends
or release time)
-
Explanation of how the effectiveness of your project will be
measured; how will data be collected and how will your experiences
be shared? (New Horizons, TLTC committee presentation)
-
Explanation of how project might continue if support is needed
after funded period.
Further, attachments for core proposal must consist of
the following:
-
Names, email addresses, and work numbers of all project collaborators
as well as brief description of their roles and duties in the
project. There must be a lead applicant or coordinator who will
serve as liaison between the ITTL chairs and approved project.
-
A spreadsheet and detailed breakdown of all anticipated costs.
Include specific hardware, software, or equipment costs, names
of vendors and item numbers. Please keep in mind potential shipping
costs, travel expenses, stipends, or any other costs.
-
A detailed timeline or implementation schedule of planned project.
Methods such as a Gantt chart are acceptable ways to delineate
timeline of project.
Additional attachments are required if:
-
A faculty member seeks release time from the standard teaching
course load. The faculty member’s Division Dean must submit
a “Statement of Approval” on behalf of the faculty
member.
-
The anticipated project and collected data might continue beyond
one year. A detailed explanation is needed to ensure that its
longevity will not discourage the approved grant from being
successful.
-
The proposal includes funds that are to be allocated through
any competitive process within the grant. Related procedures
should be clearly described and explained and must include protocols
for excluding self-interest or conflict of interest from the
process. TCC employees must not be involved in any decision-making
process that results in allocating funds to themselves.
