CLT AWARDS FACULTY INNOVATOR GRANT TO ENGINEERING'S JOVANOVIC

Old Dominion's Center for Learning and Teaching (CLT) recently announced the Faculty Innovator Grant (FIG) awards for 2013. Seven proposals were selected. The FIG program encourages university faculty to explore the use of technology in teaching and learning issues that are targets for improvement and innovation. Proposals involving collaboration of two or more faculty members from the same department, or different departments in the same or different colleges, are encouraged. The lessons learned by FIG recipients will be shared as an important step in promoting or fostering a campus-wide dialogue on innovation in teaching and learning. The final report for each grant will be published on the CLT portal as a resource for the campus community. Recipients will also present their completed projects as part of CLT's series of workshops, panels and/or special events. Selection for award is based on FIG selection criteria and proposals are judged by a team that includes past grant recipients as faculty representatives.

Among the winning proposals for 2013:

• "Online Modules for Computer Aided Drafting"

Vukica Jovanovic, Mechanical Engineering Technology

Collaborating Faculty: Jennifer Michaeli, Mechanical Engineering Technology; Nathan Luetke, Mechanical Engineering Technology; and Petros Katsioloudis, STEM Education and Professional Studies
