Peer to Peer Pedagogical Partnership Grants

• Identify a theme or content area for pedagogical products. 
• Specification of proposed participants. Propose a group of three or more local institutions from whom you would recruit members. This group should reflect the full institutional diversity in your region and will ideally include at least one community college, one research-intensive institution, and one liberal arts college or regional public institution. If there are no liberal arts or regional public institutions in your area please note that in your application (note that “region” is somewhat flexible and may be larger for applicants in less populous areas). If possible, applications should also identify at least one political science faculty member from each of the local institutions from which you will recruit who has committed to participating in P4 events (not necessarily a PI).
• Schedule of Events and Work Flow. P4 grants support political science faculty working across institutions to develop cutting-edge teaching materials and share best practices for teaching historically under-represented students. We expect that this work will be conducted through events that bring all participants together to collaborate and share resources, as well as through less formal meetings among P4 team members between events. Proposals should specify the number, timing, and purpose of funded activities. These events can include dissemination or follow-up events held after teaching resources have been produced.
• The Centennial Center’s Teaching Symposia offer an example of what a collaborative teaching and learning workshop might look like: Sample workshop schedules available here.
• Inclusivity Statement (1-page maximum). Include a statement describing how its selection of topics and personnel demonstrates a commitment to ensuring an inclusive conversation that reflects the diversity of the Association and our profession

• Travel and meeting costs for 2-3 face-to-face meetings involving all P4 participants. One of these events can include the presentation of P4 materials to broader audiences (beyond P4 participants).
• Honoraria to participants to compensate them for their work (no more than 25% of total budget).
• Honoraria to organizers for their work (no more than 5% of the budget).
• P4 grants may not be used for overhead costs.

The P4 pilot program was held in Houston, Texas, in 2019. You can read more about their launch event here. Currently, teams of faculty from across higher education institutions are holding regular group meetings to develop their teaching resources, which will be completed in Fall 2019.
