Catalyst Innovation Program
MSU is dedicated to enhancing digital learning experiences for students. The Center for Teaching and Learning Innovation (CTLI) is committed to supporting new ideas to improve the student experience through seed grant opportunities that align with the program's goals of enhancing digital learning experiences and inclusivity. By integrating digital strategies into pedagogy, we can enrich student learning and streamline assessment and analysis. Many impactful digital learning innovations at the institutional level often begin with small, experimental projects. These innovations may arise from unique pedagogical approaches in individual courses, cross-disciplinary collaborations, or responses to student feedback and needs analysis. This funding program is intended for one-time, just-in-time funding, to test ideas or achieve incremental improvement. Proposals that require recurring funding to sustain the innovation should be specific for how they are seeking on-going funding outside of the Catalyst Innovation Program.
How to Apply
Catalyst Innovation Program (CIP) proposals must be submitted through our application portal. Participants should include the following in their proposals:
Description (aim, hypothesis, and rationale) of the innovation project and idea
Implementation approach
Evaluation and assessment plan
Budget with rationale
Link to Application
Review Process and Evaluation Criteria
The Catalyst Innovation Program offers up to $10,000 in funding for creative and innovative uses of tools, technology, and pedagogical approaches. These funds are intended for experimentation in areas with the potential to enhance student learning experiences on a digitally-immersed, global campus. Please note: Funds are restricted, and designated only for one-time expenses of software, technology, equipment, and services (either external vendors or internal through a service center with a controller’s office approved ratesheet). Catalyst funds cannot be used for salary lines or recurring expenses.
Our priorities include:
Articulates clear alignment of the project to a student learning objective(s) e.g., “Students will enhance their systems thinking skills by using the virtual reality program Noda to build concepts maps collaboratively.”
Aims to increase access, as defined as “providing the means for all qualified, motivated students to complete courses, degrees, or programs in their disciplines of choice" (Online Learning Consortium, n.d.) e.g., universally designed experiences.
Fosters more equitable and inclusive digital learning environments e.g., making course materials more accessible.
Utilizes learning analytics to enable adaptive or personalized pedagogy.
Incoporates mechanisims and/or tools for implementing real-world and innovative assessment strategies.
Incorporates mechanisms and/or tools for increasing student engagement e.g., through participation, collaboration, peer learning, etc.
Project proposals will be evaluated by the following criteria:
It aligns well with one or more of our priorities
Readiness to implement
Opportunity for scalability or reuse in a different course
Well-articulated assessment and evaluation plan
Solid plan for sustainability
We will not fund proposals that:
Request funding for salary lines, direct hourly-payroll, or personal compensation.
Lack a clear plan for implementation, evaluation, or sustainability (for the future outside of the one-time grant).
Do not align with the program's goals of enhancing digital learning experiences and inclusivity.
Intend to start a software or other educational technology pilot that is used by more than one instructor or more than one course. These should seek advice from MSU IT.

Jeff Grabill, Associate Provost for Teaching, Learning, and Technology said “As we iterate toward a more explicit story about MSU’s digital learning future, it seems necessary to provide as many opportunities as possible for faculty and students to experiment, invent, make, and learn. This program is one of our small bets to create space for faculty and to see what happens.”
MSU’s Chief Digital Academic Officer Brendan Guenther points to the rapidity with which innovation happens, and how structures must adapt – “Catalyst awards give us a rapid investment lever for individuals in the #iteachMSU community, when they sense the need for innovation and have an inspired idea, we can give them the boost needed to make something happen.”
As the year progresses, we will share out stories to keep you updated on the progress these projects are making. Our goal is to empower our recipients to experiment, learn and share that knowledge with the rest of the MSU community. If you missed this application cycle, the next opportunity will be available in the Fall of 2020. Get your ideas ready!

MSU AT&T Awards Recognize Innovative Educators
AT&T, the nationwide telecommunication giant, continues its generous support of Michigan State University faculty and staff with the 2020 AT&T Awards.Established as grants in 2005, AT&T Awards recognize faculty and staff who have utilized technology in exciting new ways to improve their classrooms. With courses ranging from computer science to business, all fields of study at MSU are eligible. Each year, educators are asked to present how they use technology to enhance the learning experiences they deliver to their students. The AT&T Awards are an excellent opportunity to recognize innovation in instructional technology, as well as the educators and staff responsible for utilizing them.
This year, the AT&T Awards will recognize winners in three different categories: Online, Hybrid and Best Technology-Enabled Innovation. The Online category is open to instructors who use technology to enhance effective teaching practices in an online course. The Hybrid category is for instructors who replace 50% seat time with online experiences in hybrid classes. The third and final category, Best Technology-Enabled Innovation, is for those who enhance in-person courses with technology or "flip" their courses. Flipped courses are those in which much of the lecture and content work is done by the students outside of the classroom, leaving more time for active instruction.
All submissions will be collected by Feb. 24 and winners will be announced in March.
In April, MSU IT will host an awards luncheon featuring special guest speakers to recognize the first-place winners and honorable mentions from each of the categories. Previous winners have utilized a variety of concepts, including digital syllabi, hands-on learning for newcomers, hardware and programming and using video conference calls that help improve classroom engagement.
MSU IT is proud to partner with AT&T to help support MSU faculty and teaching staff. We thank all of our educators for their continued dedication to academic excellence. Their commitment and innovative spirit help build a generation of global, future-ready Spartans.

Reflecting on the Center for Teaching and Learning Innovation Kick-off Summit
On January 14, 2022, the new MSU Center for Teaching and Learning Innovation (CT&LI) held its Kick-off Summit. In recognition of the diverse efforts already underway to support educators at different levels across the university, this event was the first of many where "we" (at the CT&LI) looked to build on those efforts through listening, collaboration, and relationship building. Dr. Joseph A. Salem, Jr. (Dean of Libraries and Interim Associate Provost for Teaching and Learning Innovation) with the help of the Kick-off Summit Planning Team: Makena Neal (convener | CT&LI), Stefanie Baier (The Graduate School), Dave Goodrich (CT&LI), Brendan Guenther (CT&LI), Jessica Sender (MSU Libraries), and Jeremy Van Hof (EDLI & Broad College of Business) lead this first Center initative. If you’re interested, you can learn more about our charge for these listening efforts and see a glossary of how we defining some of the core language we utilized throughout the day.
Those who were asked to participate in this initial Kick-off Summit were identified in our initial efforts to document existing educator development and support at MSU. If you’re interested in viewing who attended the Kick-off Summit, you can check out the Kick-off Summit Attendee List. The Center for Teaching & Learning Innovation Kick-off Summit wouldn't have been possible without participation from these fantastic educators. Even amidst ongoing uncertainty and stress at work and at home their willingess to share their time with us demonstrates their commitment to not only educator development at MSU, but the university's teaching and learning mission as a whole.
In an attempt to recreate the experience of hands-on activities we would traditionally use during in-person sessions like this, we utilized MURAL as a virtual whiteboard to facilitate the event. The 37 folx who joined us for the day participated in three core activites related to: establishing a shared vision (Wouldn't it be fantastic if...); engagement norming and principles of collaboration (What I need from you...); and intial Center service portfolio ideation (Minimum Viable Product Reviews). You can read more about the data discovered as a result of this event in "Center for Teaching and Learning Innovation Summit Detailed Engagements Report (01/14/22". The insights provided at the Kick-off Summit and following three asynchronous feedback opportunities have proven invaluable as we continue to listen, learn, and ultimately shape what role the CT&LI plays for Spartans. Since the CT&LI Kick-off Summit, findings from the aforementioned Detailed Engagements Report were shared with a subsequent taskforce dedicated to listening to MSU faculty. That group, convened by Ellie Louson, is working on both a survey and a series of focus groups aimed at this particular audience. Additional listening efforts will continue in the next academic year with other CT&LI stakeholders represented within our broader definition of educator such as Graduate Teaching Assistants. Additionally, a process of benchmarking with the our fellow Big Ten institutions' centers for teaching and learning (CTLs) -- resulting in an informative peek at CTLs and the key takeaway of "meeting institutional needs" (i.e. no two CTLs are the same, they are unique based on their instution and its needs). This is an empowering realization, and we're looking forward to combining the benchmarking data, along with that of the Kick-off Summit, to begin shaping what the CT&LI will be in the fall (followed by iterating as we continue to gather feedback).
As the Provost so aptly stated in her Spring Welcome Note, “Values, capabilities, and aspirations join grace and empathy on our list of ways of thinking, working, and transitioning through time and tasks.” Needless to say, witnessing the level of engagement, passion, and constructively critical questioning exhibited at the CT&LI Kick-off Summit makes me all the more excited to be a part of the Center staff moving forward.

I co-wrote this attached article with Rich Bellon to describe how to better frame the "value" of HPS courses for students taking required humanities courses for an audience of History & Philosophy of Science educators. It's called "How to engage students in required HPS courses, part 2: The "value" of HPS" It was published in the Canadian Society for HPS' Communiqué newsletter in Autumn 2023 in the "Innovative Pedagogy" section (p.30-31). If you teach an IAH class or another Gen Ed course it might be helpful advice for how to frame the benefits of your course.
