eSTEeM launches 2nd call for project plans

13th May 2011

Over the last three months eSTEeM has approved 21 scholarship projects. We have made a great start and are now well established in the faculties and university. Externally too we are beginning to develop a presence.

We would like to build on these successes by inviting scholarship proposals that focus on a selection of strategically important areas. This focus will enable us to have richer scholarship conversations, generate critical mass, and make a greater impact.

The areas in which we are inviting proposals are;

Innovative assessment
Teaching laboratory practice online
Mobile devices and applications
Synchronous support
STEM distance learning for overseas markets
Use of games and gaming techniques.

Projects may be put forward by faculty management or by individual academics using the Project Plan form. The deadline for submission of a proposal is 15.00 on 27th May 2011.

Further details on the proposal submission process can be found in the document Invitation to submit project plans May 2011. All applications should be made using the Project Proposal Form.

If you have any further queries please contact us at: esteem@open.ac.uk.

We look forward to receiving your submissions.
