A mid-year emergency 10% budget cut at The University of Iowa has necessitated the reallocation of ARRA funding away from the TILE project. For further information, see UI President Sally Mason’s budget cut proposal to the Board of Regents on Oct. 29, 2009.
The TILE project will continue with alternate funding. There will be less learning spaces developed because the TILE project lost ARRA funding. But there will now be more time to better plan teaching and learning in these spaces.
Tremendous faculty interest is driving the TILE project forward. The TILE Project Team plans to continue developing materials to assist instructors. General information about teaching and learning in TILE has been added to the Teaching Strategies section. Example modules for TILE spaces will be added to that page in the upcoming weeks.
If you have questions or ideas that you would like to see added to the Teaching Strategies section of the TILE website please share your ideas.
