Cross-faculty communication around curriculum and pedagogy has increased substantially and has led to some refreshing insights into the strengths and challenges of our curricula. They are buoyed by this support. She's eager to work with faculty in designing projects that help units meet new challenges and that the program can fund. There are no funding deadlines for Tools projects. Units can approach Friedman with a proposal at any time as long as funding remains available.
Funding is tailored to the specific needs of each unit.
Knowledge changes, students' educational needs change, and units need the resources to renew themselves. Once a proposal is in final form, it is submitted to Provost Huntsman for review and approval. The Provost's Office thinks of the Tools for Transformation program as both a resource tool and a management tool.
