Award Recipients: David W. Raymond Grant for the Use of Technology in Teaching

David W. Raymond, while a member of the first Board of Trustees of Northern Illinois University, created an endowment to fund an annual grant to faculty who are working on ways to use new technologies in their teaching. Tenured and tenure-track faculty are eligible to apply for the grant. Grant funds may be used for software purchases, equipment upgrades, graduate assistantship time, or other costs associated with developing courseware or supportive materials that make effective and innovative use of instructional technology.
