these studies.

includes a SMART Board interactive whiteboard. The project culminates with a
final research paper that details the study's outcomes. Projects most likely to
be chosen are those that have a clear research goal and that focus on learning
processes. The Foundation will loan successful applicants a SMART Board 560

Proposals are evaluated as they are received.
