The Teaching, Learning, and Technology Roundtable (TLTR) is a campus-wide roundtable with representatives from administration, faculty, professional, and technology support staff. TLTR seeks to motivate and enable campus constituents and individuals to improve teaching and learning with technology, while helping them to cope with continual change. The goals of TLTR are to:<\/p>\n
Who can attend a TLTR meeting?<\/strong><\/p>\n Anyone can attend a TLTR meeting if scheduled ahead of time with the committee chair(s).<\/p>\n Who can be a committee member?<\/strong><\/p>\n The TLTR committee is made up of faculty and staff. Each unit should have one representative on the committee. Administration and professional staff can also join.<\/p>\n When does the committee meet?<\/strong><\/p>\n TLTR meets once a semester.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n Spring 2026 application deadline: March 6, 2026 EXTENDED TO APRIL 1, 2026<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n TLTR awards “Technology in Teaching and Learning” encourage faculty, librarians, and professional staff who teach to integrate technologies, throughout the disciplines, into teaching and learning at Âé¶¹´«Ã½.<\/p>\n TLTR awards support the efforts of faculty, librarians, and professional staff who teach to develop applications that incorporate the technologies in teaching and learning and related research and assessment.<\/p>\n Award recipients are required to present the results of the award in a method that can be linked to the TLTR website (e.g., a report, power point, or video demonstration). This must be done within a year of receiving funding. Completed proposal must be submitted to provost@ramapo.edu<\/a>. The Office of the Provost will distribute all applications to the TLTR Grants Committee.<\/p>\n What are the TLTR Grants?<\/strong><\/p>\n Funding for exploring leading edge technology with a broad or deep impact upon a discipline and Âé¶¹´«Ã½. Larger technology awards (over $500) support innovative projects that are connected to classroom application or support. TLTR awards may also support smaller, less expensive projects ($20-$500) which may go to the purchase of technologies not currently supplied by the college and may be course-specific. For the purpose of these awards, the term “technology” includes but is not limited to computers and library-related electronic resources.<\/p>\n NOTE:<\/strong>\u00a0Items purchased remain the property of Âé¶¹´«Ã½.<\/p>\n Who is eligible?<\/strong><\/p>\n Faculty, librarians, and professional staff who teach at Âé¶¹´«Ã½.<\/p>\n NOTE:<\/strong>\u00a0If you are an adjunct professor or temporary staff member you may jointly apply with a tenured-track faculty, librarian or professional staff member.<\/p>\n When can I apply?<\/strong><\/p>\n Applications are accepted twice each academic year. Fall applications are due the third Friday in November. Spring applications are due the first Friday in March. Deadlines are enforced to ensure awards and distribution of funds are done in a timely manner and can be used the following semester.<\/p>\n The AY2025-26 grant application deadlines are November 21, 2025 and March 6, 2026 (EXTENDED TO APRIL 1, 2026<\/span>). Funds must be utilized prior to the close of the College’s fiscal year, June 30. Funds that are not utilized cannot roll over or be used past June 30, 2026.<\/strong><\/p>\n How can I apply?<\/strong><\/p>\n Please use the TLTR Technology Grant Application<\/a><\/strong>. Complete proposals should be no longer than 3 pages, double spaced. Please include:<\/p>\n Submit your application via email to provost@ramapo.edu<\/a>. Awardees will be notified of the Grants Committee\u2019s decision by the end of the semester.<\/p>\n Is there a limit to how much I can request?<\/strong><\/p>\n The TLTR budget is approved by the Provost. While there is no limit to the amount that can be requested<\/em>, competition for limited funds may mean the committee chooses to fund only a portion of a larger request (depending on the scope and items requested).<\/p>\n What happens if I can’t use the funding in the time specified in my grant application?<\/strong><\/p>\n If you are unable to complete your project in the time specified within your application, you will be asked to resubmit your application during a future grants cycle. Awarded funds must be utilized within the current fiscal year; awarded funds that are not utilized cannot roll over or be used past June 30, the close of the College’s fiscal year.<\/strong><\/p>\n How can I tell if my idea is appropriate for a TLTR award?<\/strong><\/p>\n If you are unsure if your idea is appropriate for a TLTR award, feel free to contact the current Committee chair(s). The committee is always happy to help you develop your project or let you know of additional resources available on campus.<\/p>\n Does TLTR support the creation of websites?<\/p>\n TLTR is happy to support web-related<\/strong> or web-based<\/strong> projects. This is not the same as websites that may serve as a repository for student and\/or faculty resources. Please see following example of appropriate web-based TLTR funded projects:<\/p>\n Gerryminder<\/a><\/p>\n Marketing and Communications supports the creation of Âé¶¹´«Ã½ websites. In addition to setting-up a website, staff are happy to either train you to maintain your site yourself or offer alternatives to the maintenance of your site (depending on the scope and size). Other tools, such as Google sites, are provided by ITS. As always, members of TLTR are happy to offer help and guidance in this area as well.<\/p>\n How are the applications considered?<\/strong><\/p>\n The TLTR Grants Committee reviews applications with the TLTR Grant Rubric<\/a>. Successful applications clearly tie back their projects to curriculum. Successful projects are also innovative and clearly demonstrate a need on campus that is not already being met by another product or service.<\/p>\n How does TLTR handle grant requests for subscription services?<\/strong><\/p>\n Subscription services have successfully received funding in the past, but the applicants should consider alternate funding sources for subscription renewals, as it is unsustainable for TLTR to continually fund product renewals.<\/p>\n Can I apply every semester?<\/strong><\/p>\n Yes. However, if a semester is highly competitive and the Grants Committee receives applications which exceed the amount allotted for that semester, applicants who have not recently been awarded grants within the last three semesters will receive priority.<\/p>\n What if I have more questions?<\/strong><\/p>\n If you have any questions regarding the awards, please contact TLTR Co-Chairs Zach Layton (zlayton@ramapo.edu<\/span><\/a>) and Sharon Leathers (sleather@ramapo.edu<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a>).<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n Title<\/strong>: MSW Student See (and Hear) Live Play Therapy Skills Sessions<\/p>\n Proposal Author<\/strong>: Colleen Martinez (SSHS)<\/p>\n Title<\/strong>: AI-Assisted Portable LAN Sandbox for Experiential Learning<\/p>\n Proposal Author<\/strong>: Mohammad Mukhtaruzzaman (TAS)<\/p>\n Title<\/strong>: Evaluating AI-Assisted Learning in Computer Science Education – Development & Testing of a Pedagogical AI Tutor Title<\/strong>: Media Framing of Gender-Affirming Care Bans – A Content Analysis Title<\/strong>: Visualizing American County Seals (Hardware Request) Title<\/strong>: Enhancing Digital Scholarship at Âé¶¹´«Ã½ through Omeka S Training Title<\/strong>: The American History Textbook Project (AHTP) – Digital Database Title<\/strong>: Enhancing Spectroscopy with Czerny-Turner Configuration Title<\/strong>: Sim VS Pump Simulator Title<\/strong>: Document Scanner for Jane Addams Papers Project Title<\/strong>: Modular Skills Trainer 2 Title<\/strong>: Digital Mud:\u00a0 Ceramic 3D Printing Title<\/strong>: Using AI Applications to Create Review Questions for Nursing Students Title<\/strong>: CRISPR Genome Editing Title<\/strong>: Emotive EEG Brainwave Sensor Headset Title<\/strong>: Digital Humanities Critical Gaming Lab Title<\/strong>: Exploring Gamification in Education Title<\/strong>: Use of Apps in the Classroom to Increase Student Engagement Title<\/strong>: Expanding Capacity at the Jane Addams Papers Project Title:<\/strong> Forensic Genetic Genealogy Innocence Lab Title:<\/strong> Modular Skills Trainer Title:<\/strong> Capturing the Fun and the Work: Recording Play Therapy Sessions for Teaching and Training Title:<\/strong> Request for Polar H10 Heart Rate Sensors Title:<\/strong> Tablets for Organizing of Programming Languages <\/em>Course Title:<\/strong> The Utilization of the Virtuali Tee Shirt to Enhance Learning in Health Assessment Title:<\/strong> Impact of Virtual Reality Learning Experiences versus Traditional and Non-Traditional Learning Experiences on Student Learning Title: <\/strong>Using WeVideo for Digital Storytelling Have an innovative idea involving technology?
