Project-based learning is an effective way to capture student interest and foster critical thinking skills. Unfortunately, school budgets and administrators imaginations are sometimes limited.

An effectual way around funding limitations is securing outside funding resources. This presentation will communicate and demonstrate useful strategies for searching and writing successful grant applications.

Participants will end the class by writing a $750 grant to the Idaho CAPED Foundation or the LCCU Teaching Grant Program.

Targeted to K-12.
