The Bellevue College Foundation and The Lockwood Foundation are pleased to announce the 2012-13 offering of The Lockwood Foundation Fund for BC Faculty Excellence and Innovation. This grant is open to faculty members and will be given in support of new or ongoing projects that promote innovation in teaching and/or advance entrepreneurial models at the college. Typically, individual grants will range from $2,500 to $10,000.
Specific examples of potentially successful applications include: baccalaureate curriculum development; innovative implementation of general education requirements; creative work defining the next generation of interdisciplinary models; vanguard work on our workforce programs; practical methods for infusing the latest in pedagogical theories into the curriculum; and development of new courses that can be marketed to other schools and institutions and that will appeal to new audiences.
In November 2012, the BC Foundation awarded $14,300 in mini-grants to a number of BC’s faculty, staff and administrators for a wide range of projects. Mini-grants are designed to support projects and programs that may not be eligible for support through other college funding sources. The program is funded by donors to the BC Foundation, including many BC faculty and staff.
