Survey research support services
by Mario Torres
Dear Colleagues,
You should have received an email from Dr. Michael Villarreal asking you to complete a brief survey<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Futsa.az...> on the topic of research support services. This survey is intended to help improve the services that you and other COEHD community members receive.
Would you please complete this survey for our college? It will take at most 15 to 20 minutes of your time to complete. The results of the survey will help us better understand the challenges and opportunities for supporting research at COEHD.
Sincerely,
Mario Torres, Ph.D.

Fw: <New Instructions for Notifying RSC About a Proposal> - UTSA Routing Form Updates
by Iwan Notowidigdo
Good Morning Colleagues,
There is a change to the system for submitting grant proposals that you need to be aware of. There is no longer a separate intake form that needs to be completed and submitted. A "Notice of Intent" is part of the routing system and will appear as the first page of the routing form documents for any proposal. Please see details from Mr. Michael Wood's email from the RSC.
Thank you,
Iwan

Subject: <New Instructions for Notifying RSC About a Proposal> - UTSA Routing Form Updates
Good evening,
Please share the update below with your faculty/staff at your earliest convenience.
Respectfully,
Michael
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Good evening to our UTSA PI/PDs,
If you have logged into the UTSA Routing Form system today, you may have noticed that it looks a little different. Some updates took place over the weekend that primarily impact the “back end” of the system used by our internal REDKE units, but there is one major change for you as a PI –
Instead of submitting an Intake Form, you now just complete and submit the first section of a new Routing Form (“Notice of Intent” section). Then, later, when you are ready to route, you can complete the remainder of that same Routing Form and submit it for RSC use/review.
A reminder that, per our 10/5/2 Rule<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fresearc...>, any notices of a new proposal should be submitted to the RSC at least 10 business days prior to a submission deadline to ensure there is adequate time for review/preparation.
Steps for Notification to the RSC -
1. Log in to the Routing Form system<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcomal.i...>
2. Click on “My Proposals” at the top and select “New”
3. Complete the first page of the form (titled “Notice of Intent” at top)
4. Submit to the RSC (using button at bottom of page)
Steps for Completing a Routing Form -
1. Log in to the Routing Form system<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcomal.i...>
2. Click on “My Proposals” at the top
3. Select “Drafts”
4. To the right of the Routing Form for the project you are routing, click on the blue box with a pencil, under “Actions”
5. Edit/complete and submit the Routing Form
6. Submit (using button at bottom of page)
If you have any technical difficulties, please do not hesitate to reach out and we are happy to walk you through! Send an email to RSC-ABE(a)utsa.edu<mailto:RSC-ABE@utsa.edu> or reach out to me or the staff through MS Teams chat.
Thank you,
Michael

DL CLS Pillars and Campus Needs 21-22.pdf<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Futsaclo...>
Good Afternoon COEHD Faculty and Staff,
UTSA has partnered with San Antonio ISD to establish Dual Language Community Lab Schools under a Senate Bill 1882 Partnership agreement. I was recently named the new executive director overseeing this exciting endeavor! As you can imagine, the first months of establishing this new Partnership has been wonderfully intense as we have been involved in designing innovative systems and processes while testing them in real time. The three participating SAISD campuses include: Bonham Academy, Washington Irving Dual Language Academy, and Mark Twain Dual Language Academy. I would like to provide you with some 1882 Partnership updates.
Dual Language Community Lab School Research: Faculty members interested in conducting research at the lab schools can submit their proposal by completing the Google Form found at https://forms.office.com/r/i994939Jrk<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fforms.o...>
A summary of the campus pillars, needs, and dual language areas of focus are attached. If you have submitted your research information prior to my hire. I will review that information and contact you directly.
[https://cdn.forms.office.net/forms/images/urlpreview/preview_logo_new.png]<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fforms.o...>
Fill | UTSA DUAL LANGUAGE COMMUNITY LAB SCHOOLS RESEARCH APPROVAL FORM 21-22<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fforms.o...>
INTERESTED RESEARCHERS MUST COMPLETE THIS RESEARCH PROPOSAL APPROVAL FORM TO BE REVIEWED BY THE UTSA DUAL LANGUAGE RESEARCH COMMITTEE. ALL RESEARCH SUBMISSIONS SHOULD ALIGN TO THE PILLARS OF THE CAMPUS AND DEMONSTRATE HOW THE STUDY WILL MEET THE NEEDS OF THE CAMPUS. ALL FALL RESEARCH PROPOSAL SUBMISSIONS MUST BE SUBMITTED BY THE OCTOBER 15, 2021 DEADLINE. A DEADLINE WILL ENSURE THAT THE COMMITTEE RECEIVES ALL RESEARCH TOPICS TO BETTER DETERMINE WHETHER STUDIES OVERLAP, ARE REPLICATED, OR NEED TO REFINE THE FOCUS TO BETTER ALIGN TO THE PILLARS OF THE CAMPUS AND MEET THE NEEDS OF THE CAMPUS. THE PRIMARY INVESTIGATOR WILL RECEIVE A FORMAL LETTER OF NOTIFICATION BY NOVEMBER 1, 2021. ALL FACULTY MUST COMPLETE THE SAISD PROCESS FOR SUBMITTING RESEARCH PROPOSALS AND WILL NEED THEIR APPROVAL. A MEETING WITH THE CAMPUS PRINCIPAL WILL BE SCHEDULED AFTER SAISD APPROVAL TO SHARE YOUR RESEARCH AND GAIN THEIR INTEREST.
forms.office.com
Research Matrix: To support the needs of the campuses, avoid overlapping of research, and prevent participant fatigue, the UTSA Dual Language Research Committee will develop a matrix of research to maintain a current list of research topics and what site is currently occupied. I will notify you when this matrix is complete.
*
Bonham Academy Principal Search: UTSA and SAISD Human Capital Management has launched a rigorous process in the selection of a new principal for one of our Partner campuses! We established a three-level interview protocol. Please see the Principal Selection Process timeline below:
August- Post position, develop timeline, meet with Bonham community and student
committee to review and revise surveys
September-Get surveys approved and administered electronically (Parents/Teachers)
Hardcopy (Students), gather data, communicate
findings to stakeholders, develop a Bonham Principal Profile
October- UTSA and SAISD selects candidates to interview, applicants complete hiring
exercises, Level l interviews begin, Two finalists selected and interview with Campus Representative Committee in a Level ll interview at the campus, a finalist participates in a Level lll interview with the UTSA COEHD Dean and SAISD
Superintendent meet with finalist, finalist hired
November- Transition meeting scheduled and support begins the first week
Town Hall Meeting: A town hall meeting took place during the hiring process for an executive director (my position) and all COEHD were invited. After my hire, Dr. Belinda Flores spoke briefly at the College-wide meeting about my role and gave additional information regarding the community lab schools. A town hall that outlines the progress of the Partnership has not been scheduled yet as we are still in the preliminary stages of the Partnership. Please see the 1882 Dual Language Community Lab Schools website being developed (link below). We do plan to schedule a town hall once we finalize the logistics. The final draft of the website will not be complete until October 22, 2021, according to UTSA Communications schedule.
Dual Language Community Lab Schools Website:
Dual Language 1882 Partnership webpage here: https://education.utsa.edu/community-engagement/strategic-ed-partnerships...<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Feducati...>
Communications also added a link to the page on the Strategic Educational Partnerships page here: https://education.utsa.edu/community-engagement/strategic-ed-partnerships/<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Feducati...>
The website will include press releases, Partnership campus links, upcoming events, leadership, Board Meeting information, and updates on the progress of the Partnership.
Dual Language Community Lab Schools Board Meeting: The inaugural DL CLS Board Meeting took place on September 27, 2021. Dr. Richard Middleton was appointed Chaiman of the Board and Mrs. Erica Lira Castro, Co-Chair. At this meeting, I shared an overview of the Partnership, gave campus information, and outlined UTSA's responsibility for maintaining the three domains of the Partnership; Academic Excellence, Organizational Stregnth, and Financial Health.
I look forward to sharing more as the Partnership progresses. If you have any questions, please feel free to email me.

Funding Opportunity Spencer Foundation October 3, 2021
by Iwan Notowidigdo
Greetings Colleagues,
Two funding opportunities are available from the Spencer Foundation. The application window is open for the Spencer Foundation Small Research Grants until December 1, 2021, and for the Spencer Foundation Research-Practice Partnerships: Collaborative Research for Educational Change Grants with a mandatory Intent to Apply by November 10, 2021, and a Full Proposal Deadline on December 8, 2021. Please contact me for any assistance.
--Iwan
Spencer Foundation Small Research Grants Due: December 1, 2021, 12:00 PM (Noon) Central Time
https://www.spencer.org/grant_types/small-research-grant
The Small Research Grants Program supports education research projects that will contribute to the improvement of education, broadly conceived, with budgets up to $50,000 for projects ranging from one to five years. This program is “field-initiated” in that proposal submissions are not in response to a specific request for a particular research topic, discipline, design, method, or location. The goal for this program is to support rigorous, intellectually ambitious and technically sound research that is relevant to the most pressing questions and compelling opportunities in education.
Spencer Foundation Research-Practice Partnerships Grants Intent to Apply: November 10, 2021, 12:00 PM (Noon) Central Time/Full Proposal Deadline: December 8, 2021, 12:00PM (Noon) Central Time
https://www.spencer.org/grant_types/research-practice-partnerships
The Research-Practice Partnership (RPP) Grants Program is intended to support education research projects that engage in collaborative and participatory partnerships with project budgets up to $400,000 and durations of up to three years. Intent to Apply forms are accepted only once a year in this program. Spencer views partnerships as an important approach to knowledge generation and the improvement of education, broadly construed. Over the long term, Spencer anticipates that research conducted by RPPs will result in new insights into the processes, practices, and policies that improve education for learners, educators, families, communities, and institutions where learning and teaching happen (e.g., schools, universities, museums, other workplaces).
YouTube videos of Spencer Foundation webinars:
Although parts of the following three videos may be repetitive, I suggest viewing the shorter ones first and taking notes on how to adjust your proposed design and writing to meet Spencer’s expectations. Please contact me if you wish to have a discussion group on the Spencer opportunity or if you would prefer me to contact a Spencer program officer for questions on your behalf.
