The AMATYC Project SLOPE Research Fellows Program is an NSF-funded initiative within the American Mathematical Association of Two-Year Colleges (AMATYC) to encourage mathematics faculty members at associate degree granting institutions to engage in the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL). SoTL is scholarly inquiry by faculty into questions about their teaching and their students’ learning that is subjected to review and made public for others to build upon.

AMATYC Project SLOPE Fellows will engage in a faculty learning community as they progress through all aspects of a SoTL project. Fellows will attend a summer workshop on SoTL at Portland State University in Portland, OR (June 13 - 15,2019), and two consecutive AMATYC national conferences (November 14 – 17, 2019 in Milwaukee, WI and November 12 – 15, 2020 in Spokane, WA).

AMATYC Project SLOPE will provide Fellows travel funds for the 2019 summer workshop and 2019 AMATYC Conference and a $1000 stipend paid across three installments across the program. It is estimated that the total institutional commitment will be $1800 in 2020 for conference registration and travel funds for the 2020 AMATYC Conference.

Six Research Fellows and two Research Mentors will participate in the AMATYC Project SLOPE Research Associate Program. The application period for the AMATYC Project SLOPE Research Fellows Program is October 1 – November 30, 2018. Applicants will be notified of acceptance in February 2019.
