Only one grant can be awarded to an individual educator  per course, but an individual educator may apply for up to two courses  running concurrently.<\/p>\n<p>Teaching Grants will enable usage of AWS infrastructure services for  coursework and student projects. AWS services supported in the grants  include Amazon EC2, Amazon S3, Amazon SimpleDB, Amazon RDS, Amazon SQS,  Amazon CloudFront and Amazon Elastic MapReduce.
