The grant opportunity, under Assistance Listing Number 84.327F, aims to enhance educational outcomes for children with disabilities by promoting technology development, supporting classroom educational activities, and providing accessible educational materials. Key objectives include developing a comprehensive framework for technology integration, delivering technical assistance at universal, targeted, and intensive levels, and engaging doctoral students or post-doctoral fellows in the initiative. Evaluation criteria will likely focus on the applicant's ability to create innovative strategies for technology adoption in special education training programs. The application deadline is July 25, 2025, at 11:59:59 PM Eastern Time, with a recommended narrative submission of up to 70 pages.
The estimated funding for this cooperative agreement is $700,000 for a single award, with a project period of up to 60 months (5 years). Eligible applicants include state educational agencies, local educational agencies, institutions of higher education, nonprofit organizations, public agencies, and potentially for-profit organizations. The project will be performance-based, with a focus on developing faculty competencies in educational technologies, including assistive technology and artificial intelligence applications.
