ATC awards grants to full-time, ongoing faculty members to facilitate the use and evaluation of new software, hardware, apps, and/or one-time subscriptions or licenses for instruction or other teaching activities. ATC grants are designed for the purpose of evaluating the integration of the technology into the recipient’s teaching. The goal of ATC grants is to allow the recipient the opportunity to evaluate an item of technology for its ability to enhance a course or courses.
