FY24 Program Development and Strategic Coordination RFP

CUNY Central is requesting program development and strategic coordination proposals from CUNY schools and departments of education that seek to formalize integration of computing and digital literacies in their programs such that:

At senior colleges:

80% of teacher candidates enrolled in a school of education will experience meaningful, equitable and coherent CITE integrations in disciplinary, foundations, methods, and clinical components of their degrees by 2026.

At community colleges:

80% of education students enrolled in an education department program will experience meaningful, equitable and coherent CITE integrations in education courses (including disciplinary, foundations, methods, and fieldwork) and optionally, relevant general education courses, by 2026.

FY24 Strategic Planning Grants

In Summer / Fall 2023, colleges involved in the CITE program were asked to consolidate their CITE programmatic change and strategic coordination efforts for FY24 into one grant proposal that articulated the programs where computing is being integrated, the stage of integration, and details like the percentage of education students reached and number of faculty involved.

The Request for Proposals can be found here.

Below, Grantees can find information related to the proposal itself, as well as processes for submitting grant deliverables.

Strategic Planning Checkpoint: Submit and Get Feedback on CITE Program Learning Goals Visioning Deliverables

In 2024, colleges who were awarded funds through the FY24 CITE Strategic Planning RFP are required to submit for review and feedback deliverables for their work to date in the “Visioning” RFP track that relate to the development of CITE program-level learning goals. Begin the submission process here.

RFP Information Sessions

In Summer 2023, a series of information sessions were held to introduce the RFP and grants.

CITE Summer 2023 Strategic Planning Welcome, Overview and Fall Funding Updates

Monday, June 5th, 2023, 12-1pm ETRecording here

In this session, we bring CUNY Colleges up to speed on where support for CITE strategic planning has been, what we’ll be focusing on this summer in June and July, and how it leads up to supporting college teams to apply to new funding streams in Fall 2023 to support their strategic planning work for FY2024.

Building a CITE Strategy Map + Selecting a Strategy Funding Track

Tuesday, June 6th, 2023, 12-1pm ETRecording here

In this session, we’ll share a tool—the CITE Strategy Map—that can be used to help your team look across its programs to help track and plan around where CITE work is (and isn’t) happening, how different programs are progressing on integration, and use that information to select the CITE strategy funding track that’s right for your college.

CITE Program Visioning and Scope & Sequence Ratification

Wednesday, June 7th, 2023, 12-1pm ETRecording here

How do programs effectively articulate CITE learning outcomes and an associated scope and sequence across courses? In this session, we’ll share about what it means to plan an effective program level (not just college level!) vision for learning, and how to translate that into a scope and sequence that spans a program’s coursework.

CITE Program Implementation and Strategic Coordination Planning

Thursday, June 8th, 2023, 12-1pm ETRecording here

In this session, we’ll share common best practices, and pitfalls, around program level CITE implementation and college-level CITE coordination. For programs, how do you go from having a clear scope and sequence to… actually making it happen on the ground? For colleges, how do you make a plan to coordinate across all your CITE-integrated programs in ways that ensure programs can improve, have impact, and be sustainable?
