GRANTS AND AWARDS

In 1999 I received a grant of $3,800 from the Support for the Advancement of Scholarship Fund in the Faculty of Education, University of Alberta, for the project Internet Telephony in a Video Intensive Networked Instructional Simulation, to investigate the use of telephone communications via the internet as an integral component in a simulation of the junior high school principalship.

In 1999 I received a Learning Enhancement Envelope (4) grant from the University of Alberta for $14,400 to develop an alternative delivery mode for a course which provides an internship experience for students in the MEd. in Instructional Technology.

In 1998 I split a Learning Enhancement Envelope (3) award from Alberta Advanced Education and Manpower for improving the online delivery of the MEd. in Instructional Technology with two colleagues, Dr. Mike Szabo and Dr. Mike Carbonaro. My proposal was for enhancements to two alternative delivery university courses on Instructional Design. The grant was for $50,000, I received $16,666.

In 1998 I received a Learning Enhancement Envelope (2) award from Alberta Advanced Education and Manpower for the development of two alternative delivery university courses on Instructional Design. The grant was for $26,656.

In 1997 my research partners, Bill Maynes and Gordon McIntosh. and I received a Curriculum Redevelopment Fund grant from Alberta Advanced Education and Career Development for the development of a computer-based, video intensive simulation of the junior high school principalship. The grant was for $403,383.

In 1996 I received a three year grant from SSHRC under the Aid to Research and Transfer Journals Program in support of the publication of the Canadian Journal of Educational Communication. The grant was for $9,026 per year.

In 1995 I received a grant of $15,000 from Heritage Canada, and a further grant of $7,500 from the Software Alberta Society to further develop the Jean Talon Project social studies materials.

In 1995 I received the Leadership Award for that year from the Association for Media and Technology in Education in Canada. The criteria for the award state, in part, that it is presented to "an individual who has offered at least 10 years of outstanding service in the field of educational media."

In 1995 my research partners, Bill Maynes and Gordon McIntosh, and I received a University of Alberta University Teaching Research Fund grant of $6,000, and a Scholarly Activities and Research Assistance Committee grant of $2,500 to further our work in developing a simulation of the junior high school principalship and researching the use of simulations for learning.

In 1994 I received the International Contribution award for that year from the International Division of the Association for Educational Communications and Technology (AECT) during the association's annual conference in Nashville, Tn. The division's criteria for the award state in part that it "recognizes outstanding leadership and contributions in the field of educational communications and technology with clear international implications and impact."

In 1992 my research partner, Sharon Jamieson, and I received grants of money and equipment totalling approximately $375,000 to produce the first prototype multimedia for the federal government's Jean Talon Project and try these materials with teachers. Contributors to this project included the Secretary of State of Canada, Multiculturalism and Citizenship Canada, IBM Canada Ltd., and Alberta Education.

In 1991 I was leader of a team which received an Award of Excellence from the Association for Educational Media and Technology in Education in Canada (AMTEC) for the development and production of the interactive videodisc simulation Project Decide: A Simulation of the Elementary School Principalship.

In 1989 my research partner, Gordon McIntosh, and I received a grant of $50,000 from Alberta Education to assist in the production of an interactive video simulation for Elementary School Principals.

In 1988 I received the Educational Broadcasting Bursdary for Canada for that year from the Commonwealth Relations Trust in London, England. The bursary allowed me to visit Britain for four months. During that time I investigated methods of developing, producing, using and evaluating interactive video, television, and distance education materials within Britain.

In 1982 my research partner, Douglas Parker, and I received a grant of $50,000 from Alberta Advanced Education to assist in the research and development of interactive videodisc materials for teacher education.
