4-VA at VT

The operation of 4-VA at VT is managed by IT in coordination with the provost’s office and academic units through the Technology-enhanced Learning and Online Strategies (TLOS). Funding for 4-VA grants at VT is intended to support activities that further the goals of both VT and 4-VA through four activities: course sharing, collaborative research grants for researchers working with a 4-VA grantee at a partner institution, course redesign grants, and collaborative endeavors between 4-VA institutions.

Programs

 

Virginia Tech is in the initial stage of a campus-wide adaptive learning initiative in collaboration with Carnegie Mellon University. Named for the late Nobel and Turing Award laureate and CMU Professor Herbert A. Simon, the Simon Initiative harnesses a cross-disciplinary learning engineering ecosystem that has developed over several decades at Carnegie Mellon. The initiative’s goal is to measurably improve student learning outcomes.
