The Vice-Provost (Education) has invited applications for the annual Teaching Equipment Fund and Teaching Innovations Grant schemes.

The Teaching Innovations Grant offers individuals or departments up to £5,000 towards projects aimed at improving teaching, learning or assessment. These could, for example, make use of UCL’s technology or object-based learning opportunities.
Teaching Innovations Grants are available either as start-up grants, which help departments create new schemes, or extension grants, which enable staff to develop existing projects.
