As of August 6, we have awarded all of our grants for this year’s program! Please see the announcement above for a list of the successful projects.
DEADLINE EXTENDED! We have received feedback from colleagues expressing interest in our grant program and asking for more time.
We are now accepting inquiries and applications on a rolling basis until all 5 grants are awarded, so we encourage you to contact us soon. The application window for this round will close on August 15, unless all available grants are awarded sooner.
We are pleased to announce a collaboration between World Languages 360 (https://worldlanguages360.org) and Extempore (https://extemporeapp.com/) through which up to 5 grants will be made available for the 2024-2025 academic year. Successful applications will seek to make significant use of Extempore’s capabilities for world language teaching and learning. Support will include free licenses of Extempore for the grantees and their learners, as well as honoraria for the applicants. Additional resources are available for materials and travel to conferences or professional association meetings as a presenter about the awarded project.
What Do Grantees Receive?
- Extempore will provide free licenses to the grantees and their learners for the duration of the project.
- The maximum total grant award amount per project is $3,000 (exclusive of the value of Extempore licenses).
- Honoraria are awarded up to $500 for the year 2024 and another $500 for the year 2025 (with a maximum of 2 people per grant, so a total of $2,000 per award).
- Travel is reimbursable with receipts and includes hotel, transportation, registration, and meals when presenting at a conference or professional meetings about the project (presentation must take place within a year of the end of the grant period). These expenses are capped at 50% of the total award (up to $1,500).
- Materials for acquiring or creating resources for learners to use while participating in the project are supported.
