TI Navigator/Sid W. Richardson Grant
It is now time to submit proposals for the recently awarded TI Navigator/Sid W. Richardson grant for UTRGV UTeach graduates. The grant is over a period of two years and focuses on incorporating TI technology into the UTeach alumni Texas classrooms. The purpose of the grant is to enhance UTRGV UTeach teacher induction by providing TI Navigators and TI-Nspire CX II handhelds, and training, to UTeach alumni serving as science and mathematics teachers who will report on the use of TI technology in the classroom. Both mathematics and science teachers in the state of Texas who are graduates of the UTRGV UTeach program or graduates from the legacy institutions are welcome to apply.
Interested UTRGV UTeach graduates will submit an application including a two-page proposal on how they would incorporate the TI-Nspire Navigators and TI-Nspire CX II handhelds into their classrooms in the upcoming 2026-2027 academic year. These proposals will be reviewed by UTRGV UTeach committee using the rubric found in the application, and the top seven proposals will be selected for participation in the project.
Proposals should address how you plan to use the TI-Nspire Navigator System and TI NSpire CX II handhelds to deliver content, perform real-time assessment, share files, monitor student understanding of concepts and more, while also adhering to the inquiry-based model of education that is the bedrock of UTeach programs.
Call for UTRGV UTeach graduates’ proposals for the TI Navigator/Sid Richardson grant. Date of submission: on or before Sunday, July 19 th by email to Mrs. Liliana Trevino at liliana.trevino@utrgv.edu
