Howery Teaching Enhancement Grants can support an individual, a program, a department, or a committee of a state/regional association. ASA will generally award 2-3 grants, each up to $2,000. Funds can be used for a variety of purposes including, but not limited to, summer salary, equipment, software, travel, meetings, transcription of interviews, and survey implementation. Principal criteria for the award are: the project advances the teaching and learning of sociology, serves as a seed project that will continue to have an impact over time, and will be systemic in its impact. The criteria are intentionally flexible in order to accommodate innovative proposals. ASA membership is not a criterion for application or selection for this grant; however, recipient(s) must be an ASA member by the time ASA grants the award. Applications from all sub-areas of the discipline are welcome
