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) stakeholders committee. The committee provides input approval of proposed allocations and grants in addition to annually reviewing grant progress and outcomes report. 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.
