Online Curriculum Development Fund
eLearning incorporates communications media, such as audio and video conferencing software, e-mail and other technologies that enable interactive, online discussions between students and between students and their instructors.
$600,000 in new funding available for online curriculum development
Assisting members with developing high quality online curriculum has always been a top priority for eCampusAlberta. Now, eCampusAlberta is pleased to offer members a sixth installment of the Online Curriculum Development Fund.
To date, more than $3.3 million has been awarded to members through five rounds of OCDF offerings. The upcoming offering will bring that total to $3.9 million.
Member institutions are invited to submit proposals to access these funds by May 31, 2010.
These funds have been made available by the Ministry of Advanced Education and Technology ($350K) and eCampusAlberta ($250K) for the purpose of increasing student access to online course offerings delivered through eCampusAlberta.
