To foster full engagement and quality classroom interactions, the IWL offers up to $500.00 for faculty to purchase instructional materials, engage guest speakers, organize course-related activities, hire student assistants to develop materials, facilitate discussion, analyze data, coordinate events or other relevant tasks.
