A brief description of the program(s):
The Sustainability Course Development Fellowship supports faculty members' efforts to enhance teaching of topics related to sustainability and environmental literacy at the IU Bloomington campus. It will support innovative approaches to instruction of complex, interdisciplinary topics at both undergraduate and graduate levels. Service-learning courses and those that involve application of principles of sustainability to the IU Bloomington campus are of particular interest.
A brief description of the incentives that faculty members who participate in the program(s) receive:
The award for a Sustainability Course Development Fellowship is $8,000. If joint awards are made, recipients will share $8,000. Recipients are expected to devote the equivalent of eight weeks full-time to their project during the summer of 2010. It is expected that they will not
engage in teaching or administrative activities during that period. Recipients are also expected to engage with other fellows and members of the IUB sustainability community, to submit a summary report to the Office of the Vice Provost for Faculty and Academic Affairs at the end of the fall semester following the award, and to formally disseminate the results of their instructional development project to other IU faculty.
