Summary

The Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) Research Grant, offered by the Society for the Teaching of Psychology, supports research projects that enhance teaching practices in psychology education.

Funds may cover materials, participant incentives, travel for collaboration, and researcher stipends, promoting diverse contributions to the field.

Overview

STP is pleased to announce a program of small grants to provide support for research projects on the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL). Consistent with our Mission Statement and the Statement on Addressing Systemic Racism and Inequity in STP, we encourage applications from colleagues who are from underrepresented groups and have diverse backgrounds and experiences. The grant program is open to STP members teaching Psychology at 4-year colleges and universities, 2-year colleges, or high schools. Research projects in any phase of development are eligible for funding (e.g., materials design, data collection, manuscript writing). However, the proposed project must have a high probability of producing a product that will be presented and/or published in a peer-reviewed outlet, in a timely manner. Grant funds would ideally be used for materials/supplies for research, participant incentives, or travel to promote collaboration on the project. Fund can also be utilized for researcher/research assistant stipends and travel to present outcomes of research. We have a total of $10,000 to award. These funds will likely be divided among several outstanding proposals and awardees may only receive partial funding for their projects.
