The number of teaching and learning grants offered by the Centre for Teaching and Learning continues to expand with the introduction of the Educational Leadership Initiative @Queen’s (ELI) Grant. 

The newly-introduced ELI is aimed at supporting research and enhancing teaching and learning on campus. Specifically, the ELI will provide Queen’s faculty, librarians, staff and students the financial and educational support to help champion an initiative that addresses teaching and learning issues that focus on the improvement of student and educator learning and teaching experiences. 

ELIs may stem from new, incremental, innovative, and high-risk/high-return approaches to enhancing teaching and learning across traditional disciplinary boundaries. A maximum of two grants will be funded by the CTL with successful applicants being awarded up to $10,000 annually to a maximum of two years, for a total of $20,000. 

“Once again we are very excited by the prospects that these opportunities provide for teaching and learning here at ����ֱ��,” says Peter Wolf, Associate Vice-Provost (Teaching and Learning) and Director of the Centre for Teaching and Learning.

A key component of the ELI is that participants and collaborators will also meet to share best practices on furthering leadership, advocacy, and educational capacities, and to ensure sustainability of the initiatives.

Other current calls from the CTL include the Educational Research Grants and the Teaching and Learning Enhancement Grants.

Teaching and Learning Enhancement Grants help fund systematic, evidence-based studies into teaching and learning methodologies. Four Educational Research Grants are available: two for graduate students, for up to $1,000, and two to all other Queen’s educators, for up to $5,000. 

Teaching and Learning Enhancement Grants support projects that focus on various aspects of teaching, including course or program design, assessment techniques, or effective use of technology. Winning proposals for the Teaching and Learning Enhancement Grants could receive up to a maximum of $7,000. A total of $30,000 is available. 

The deadline for all these grants is June 27. Visit the for full details about the grants and how to apply.
