Opportunity Information: Apply for ED GRANTS 042516 001
The Investing in Innovation Fund (i3) under the Office of Innovation and Improvement (OII) offers Development Grants aimed at supporting local educational agencies (LEAs) and nonprofit organizations working alongside LEAs or school consortia. This program, part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, focuses on addressing ongoing educational challenges and scaling effective solutions to benefit a larger student population.
The i3 program features a multi-tier structure where the funding level is linked to the evidence supporting the proposed project. Applicants with limited evidence can receive smaller grants for developing and evaluating promising practices, while those with robust evidence from rigorous evaluations, like randomized controlled trials, can access larger grants for broader implementation.
All funded projects must include independent evaluations to generate additional evidence of their effectiveness, helping to inform educators and policymakers about successful practices in various contexts. The grant types include Development, Validation, and Scale-up grants, differing in required evidence levels and funding amounts.
Currently, applications are invited only for Development grants, which support innovative practices backed by promising evidence or strong theoretical frameworks. These projects must address widespread challenges and evaluate their effectiveness at the proposed scale. Entities wishing to apply must first submit a pre-application to streamline the process. Highly rated pre-applications will lead to invitations for full applications, though all entities can opt to submit a full application regardless of pre-application outcomes.
For further details about eligibility, application requirements, and deadlines, consulting the official notice in the Federal Register is advised.Apply for ED GRANTS 042516 001
