The Arts ISIT team has launched a pilot project to create a support framework for emerging technologies. This initiative aims to foster innovation and enhance teaching excellence within the Faculty of Arts. The project’s outcomes will complement existing programs on campus, offering supplementary assistance to faculty members who:
haven’t yet secured grants for their innovative projects
have developed new technologies and require guidance in identifying sustainable, long-term support avenues
Currently, the project is in the phase of conducting a needs assessment. The insights gathered during this assessment will pave the way for designing the support model. If you’re interested in contributing your insights, we invite you to participate in the needs assessment workshop we will host during the first week of October. To join, please sign up before September 15, 2023.
Should you require more background information about this initiative, please get in touch with the project administrator, Zoe Zhou, at zoe.zhou@ubc.ca.
