Catalyst Innovation Program Recipients - Spring 2023

The Catalyst Innovation Program funds creative and innovative uses of tools, technology, and pedagogical approaches for the purposes of allowing experimentation with the potential to enhance student learning experiences with just-in-time awards. This has helped to nurture a spirit of collaboration and creativity that is laying the groundwork for adoption of new technologies. So in true Catalyst fashion, we expect 2023 will be no different.
