*Subject: **[Deepearth] Workshop opportunity - writing an NSF TUES
proposal*

Hi all –This is an announcement from Jeff Ryan regarding an
opportunity to attend a grant writing workshop for the TUES program.
It would be great if our On the Cutting Edge alumni could translate
all those great ideas from our workshops (remember those "action
plans" we asked you to develop?) into new TUES proposals. The reality
is that funding by discipline tracks with proposal pressure—so we
really do need to have more good proposals submitted from the Earth
Sciences. You cannot win if you do not play…See if you can attend this
workshop!!! Dave Mogk (apologies for multiple postings)

Please consider participating in this most- to all-expense-paid
workshop event aimed at helping you write and submit a proposal to
NSF's Transforming Undergraduate Education in STEM (TUES) program to
support one of those great classroom ideas that arose from discussions
at recent On the Cutting Edge workshops. More information below, and
don't hesitate to contact me with questions. Jeff
------------

Have you considered writing a grant proposal to improve undergraduate
teaching and learning in your courses, but not done it for lack of
necessary information about writing education proposals, or lack of time?

Please consider applying to attend the 3-day proposal writing workshop
supported by the Resources to Transform Undergraduate Geoscience
Education (RTUGeoEd) project (http://www.buffalostate.edu/rtugeoed/).

The objective of this workshop is to help you complete a grant
proposal to NSF’s Tranforming Undergraduate Education in STEM
(Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics)(TUES) Program, the
core funding program in the Division of Undergraduate Education (DUE)
for supporting undergraduate educational innovation.The submission
deadline for entry-level “Type 1” proposal submissions to the TUES
Program is mid-May, and our goal is for you to have a submission-ready
proposal by that time.

Workshop Dates:March 14-17, 2013

Location: Campus of the University of South Florida - Tampa. All
lodging and on-site expenses for workshop participants are covered
through funding from the National Science Foundation.

The workshop conveners are Dr. Jill Singer (Buffalo State College),
and Dr. Jeff Ryan (University of South Florida) two former NSF-DUE
geoscience Program Directors.

A limited amount of funding for travel support is available. Please
contact Jill Singer (singerjk<at>buffalostate.edu
<singerjk<at>buffalostate.edu>) or Jeff Ryan (ryan<at>mail.usf.edu
<ryan<at>mail.usf.edu>) about travel support, and for more
information.

We will begin to review applications and select participants starting
January 28, 2013.
