<\/strong>Planning and Design Grants: up to $100,000<\/p>\n CFP: http:\/\/www.imls.gov\/about\/macarthur.shtm<\/p>\n These grants will support the planning and designing of up to 30 Learning Labs in libraries and museums throughout the country. The Labs are intended to engage middle- and high-school youth in mentor-led, interest-based, youth-centered, collaborative learning using digital and traditional media. Grantees will be required to participate, in-person and online, in a community of practice that will provide technical assistance, networking, and cross-project learning. Projects are expected to provide prototypes for the field and be based on current research about digital media and youth learning. There will be two project deadlines for this grant program, with the second deadline planned for spring 2012.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Deadline: August 15, 2011 Planning and Design Grants: up to $100,000 CFP: http:\/\/www.imls.gov\/about\/macarthur.shtm These grants will support the planning and designing of up to 30 Learning Labs in libraries and museums throughout the country.
