Classroom Analysis Projects (CAP)
Faculty CAP Archives

COC proposes to pay a stipend to faculty to develop and pilot instructional innovations that build upon skills acquired during the completion of classes offered by the Institute for Teaching and Learning. Faculty will propose Classroom Analysis Projects (CAP) to improve the curriculum or delivery of instruction; based upon the Proposal Ranking Criteria, the CAP Committee will select participants. (Important Update: As of Fall 08, CAPs no longer need to be linked to an IT&L course topics. See the CAP main page for examples of the types of topics appropriate for CAPs.)
