PEC Teacher Reward/Grant Program
Promoting Novel Ideas to Introduce Engineering to
Precollege Students: How Teachers Can Get a IEEE-USA
Reward/Grant
IEEE-USA’s Precollege Education
Committee’s Precollege Teacher Reward/Grant Program helps teachers
to sponsor innovation and creativity in or outside of the
classroom. These rewards/grants provide small amounts of
funding for novel ideas that introduce engineering to students.
Reward/Grant
Requirements:
- The program/project must be a new
and/or unique idea*
- The program/project must take place in
2008†
- The teacher must work with an IEEE
member (the IEEE member can be a partner, mentor, or a resource
member)
* NOTE: The purpose of the PEC Teacher
Rewards/Grants is to fund unique and new ideas/projects/programs.
Rewards/Grants will not be provided for pre-existing or “canned”
projects such as FIRST Robotics Competitions, BEST Competitions, and
Project Lead the Way implementation unless it is an IEEE program
such as implementation of an IEEE Teacher In-Service Program.
Rewards/Grants will typically not be provided for capital goods such
as laptops, printers, video recorders, etc. Rewards/Grants awarded are
typically up to $500.
† NOTE: There is no specific
deadline. Applications are currently being accepted and will
be considered on a rolling case-by-case basis.
Preference will be for:
- Innovation
- Creativity
- Widespread classroom
applicability
- Engineering collaboration
- Shared results, outcomes
- Science, Technology, Engineering,
Mathematics (STEM) content, application
