Creative IT (NSF)

The National Science Foundation (NSF) seeks proposals for projects whose objectives are new models of creativity, new models for research and education, or creativity enhancing tools developed in the context of a specific discipline. A project may respond to new theoretical models, new models of research, innovative educational approaches, or creativity enhancing tools.

Amount: Up to $800,000 across 3 years

Due: October 13, 2009

Two types of proposals will be accepted: pilot projects and major projects. Pilot projects typically have a single PI and a single undergraduate or graduate student for a duration of one to three years. A pilot project identifies a synergy from understanding creativity in a specific context in which a computing environment has the potential to lead to innovative and creative advances in one or more disciplines. Major Projects have one or more PIs and multiple undergraduate and graduate students for a duration of three years with a maximum budget of $800,000. A Major project brings together a group of people to develop a synergistic effect that can transform our understanding of models, computing environments or education relevant to CreativeIT.
