As of October 1, 2021, the Teaching Innovation Fund (TIF) will be replaced by the new SoTL funding opportunities, Seed (an investigation-oriented funding program) and Cultivate (a design-oriented funding program). These programs are for emerging faculty researchers who are willing to embark on the research journey. Emerging researchers and their projects are Seeds that are planted and are waiting patiently to grow. When ready, they Cultivate into expert researchers who keep the field healthy for new seeds to come. As part of the learning process, the students are the ‘gardeners’, who work together to embrace discovery and propagate the knowledge acquired into new unexplored fields in the professional world.
