Announcing: Request for Proposals (RFP)
Date of announcement: March 25, 2011
Deadline: May 2, 2011
Decision date for award: May 23, 2011
The
Stanford University School of Education (SUSE) has established an
endowment fund, supported by the generosity of the family and friends of
Amir Lopatin, a former Learning Sciences and Technology Design (LSTD)
doctoral student. Seven years ago on March 25th, Amir sadly lost his
life in an unfortunate automobile accident during Spring Break. His
family and over 300 families and friends worked intensively to create a
memorial fund in his name to support research in learning sciences and
technologies design, which Amir strongly felt held much promise for
education. Proceeds from this endowment fund will provide support to a
research project of exceptional merit, selected each year from among
proposals submitted by SUSE doctoral students in the Learning Sciences
and Technology Design (LSTD) program, in line with the criteria
described below. In 2011, the third year of this Fellowship, 1 selected
proposal will be awarded up to $3,000, to cover research-related
expenses (with future amounts dependent on the endowment payout in a
given year). The Fellowship will be advertised on a similar calendar
each year.
