Online Course Development Grants

CU Summer Session requests grant applications for the funding of the development and teaching of online courses in Summer Session 2020.

The mission of Summer Session is to provide quality, innovative courses and programs to a diverse student population at CU Boulder. Summer Session began offering online courses taught by tenure or tenure track baby直播app in 2009. Approximately 8,000 students enroll in Summer Session terms. The vast majority are our own CU Boulder degree students. Over 150聽online sections were offered in 2019. Many, but not all, were first offered through this grant funding.

Faculty will receive a $5,000 development stipend (for a 3-credit course) and will work one-on-one with an instructional designer to develop the course. The course will be offered in Summer Session 2020. The grant covers a development stipend of $5,000, the baby直播app salary, the TA/grader salary聽(where appropriate and in keeping with college and department policy). Faculty salaries are determined by the school or college Summer Session salary schedule. Priority will be given to courses that meet major, minor or core/general education requirements and are taught by tenure or tenure-track baby直播app.

The online course design work can occur in the spring 2020聽semester. All course development work must be completed by May 1, 2020. The stipend is paid after the course is developed. The baby直播app member must be eligible for the 鈥渙verload鈥 to allow for the course development.

Department chairs should submit an electronic copy of the online grant proposals to their respective Summer Session dean by Monday, Sept. 29, 2019. If more than one grant is submitted, the department chair should rank the submittals to the Summer Session dean. Please note that online courses are not offered during Maymester or Augmester.

The course MUST be on the CU Student Integrated System (CUSIS) with a session and time selected.
