Connection to Goal One and/or Two of the University Strategic Plan Provide a transformative educational experience and environment for all students. Titan students are immeasurably enriched by immersive experiences and a robust array of services that support their well-being, provide a sense of belonging, and promote academic success. The many benefits from this institutional commitment — enhanced learning, retention, confidence, and affinity for the university — ensure Titan graduates are well prepared to excel in the workforce or in further education.

Connection to Goal One and/or Two of the University Strategic Plan Goal Two: Strengthen opportunities for student completion and graduation. Perhaps nothing is more central to our educational mission than providing equitable access to the opportunities and resources necessary for student success. Degree completion is one metric, albeit a fundamental one, by which student success is measured, and our commitment to supporting students achieve that goal is interlinked with myriad endeavors that promote student success in all its forms.

Outcomes and Assessment Goals/Outcomes are defined Measure(s) Aligned to goals/outcomes Feasible Evaluative

Benefits Proposed project clearly describes the benefits the implementation will have on students, the department, and/or instructional processes

Sustainability Plan for the future Funding (if needed) Sustained implementation Expansion To other sections To other courses

Examples of Past Projects Redesign of Theatre Management Class to Address 21st Century Realities International Cohort Cultural Experience: Japan Developing counseling skills through co-curricular, experiential education, and service learning Including Undergraduate Research in a CAS Senior Seminar Course A Humanity at Work: Alumni Career Webinars for History Majors Design and implementation of a cross-disciplinary Bio-Geo intersession field course

Budget and Timeline Reassigned Time/ Summer Stipend Need for reassignment Any other supports for project (e.g., department, college, grants and stipends) Deliverable dates Operating Expenses & Equipment Need for resources Any other supports for project (e.g., department, college, grants and stipends) Deliverable dates

Money will be transferred to your Department This means: If you are asking for reassigned time- the FDC will budget transfer this money to your dept If you are asking for summer stipend there are new rules on faculty additional pay. OE & E- there are rules on how state funds can be used- money will be transferred to your dept- make sure your dept is in agreement on how you are spending funds- i.e., gift cards can’t be bought with state funds.

TIPS Remember that the faculty reviewers reading your narrative might not be from your discipline. Your narrative should be clearly understandable by a faculty member outside your own field. Take the time to review the weblinks throughout the powerpoint. Explore the FDC's teaching pages and scholarship pages for helpful online resources when developing your project concept. Compare your draft proposal to the rubric and revise your draft as necessary to clearly address the criteria.
