- Grant Description
- Grants for Faculty Humanities Workshops support local and regional professional development programs for K-12 teachers and faculty at post-secondary institutions by providing such faculty with the opportunity to engage in vigorous intellectual inquiry with visiting scholars on significant topics in the humanities. For school teachers, these intellectual enrichment projects typically respond to or align with humanities topics and subjects identified in state or other appropriate frameworks for learning. Such projects involve a series of meetings over periods of up to 18 months to pursue a well-defined, cohesive course of study. Participants will have opportunities to work with visiting humanities scholars as they carry out a collaborative program of readings, discussions, and other activities. Projects can involve teachers from a single school, a cluster of schools, or a school district, and draw upon humanities resources in the wider community, such as libraries, museums, historical organizations, and other educational institutions. Projects for college and university faculty members should reflect and respond to institutional priorities and initiatives. These workshops enable a core group of faculty to pursue collaborative humanistic inquiry at a level that could not be accomplished with existing institutional resources. As the core group pursues its common course of study, it will draw upon expertise from within the institution(s) as well as from appropriate visiting scholars. Projects typically involve a cohesive series of meetings on a well-defined topic over a period of up to 18 months.
