Consultations on Educational Components of Grants

In support of the efforts of the Office of the Vice President for Research (OVPR), the Office of Sponsored Projects (OSP) and the Office of Corporate and Foundation Relations, and in collaboration with the Broader Impacts group, the Sheridan Center provides pedagogical expertise and feedback for the educational components of grant proposals.

The Sheridan Center staff is available to (1) review grant proposals for postsecondary educational grants and/or (2) develop evaluation plans to assess the effectiveness of proposed innovations. However, due to limited capacity, we are unable to conduct the evaluation. Please contact [email protected] if you would like us to put you in touch with other evaluation resources.

The Center has expertise in:

  • creating postdoc mentoring plans
  • developing evaluation plans for postsecondary educational grants
  • developing broader impact sections pertaining to teaching and learning at Brown
  • planning teaching and curricular innovations

After consultation, the Center may be cited in the grant as part of ongoing pedagogical support offered by Brown.

For further information or to request a grant consultation, please contact the Sheridan Center.
