In this session, four of the past winners of the Just-in-Time Teaching and Technology Grants will showcase their awards and how they used them in their classrooms. The faculty initiatives showcased are:

• Jill DeTemple, Religious Studies Department, featuring Two-Minute Movies with Text-To-Speech Software
• Andrea Laurent-Simpson, Sociology Department, featuring Board Games
• Janice Lindstrom, Music Therapy Department, featuring AbleNet Big Mac Assistive Communication Technology
• Jer'Lisa Devezin, Art Department, featuring Screen Printing and Alternate Processes

The Just-in-Time Teaching and Technology Grants (JiTTT) is partnership between the Center for Teaching Excellence and the Academic Technology Services team. This program will provide small grants (up to $500 each) to faculty from across campus when they need it most — at the start of the semester.

The goal of this grant program is to reduce the barriers for faculty acquiring needed materials or technology for their classrooms. We want to help by providing funding at a critical planning point for the semester. It is our hope that this program will support your efforts to improve SMU's teaching quality.

Cookies and Coffee will be served.
