The Division of Innovative & Learning-Centric Initiatives supports a number of pilots each year. These pilots are intended to enhance learning, generate excitement, and explore promising new tools that can help us reach a wide variety of goals. We intend the pilots we support to be broadly available to those interested in participating. At the conclusion of a pilot term, evaluations will be sent to faculty and students participating.

If pilots are deemed successful and there is strong support for long-term use on campus, the Division of Innovative & Learning-Centric Initiatives will map out implementation plans, funding models, and support structures to ensure the long-term success of these efforts. If you see a pilot on this page you would like to learn more about or sign up to participate in, please reach out to Rick Murch-Shafer (rmurch-shafer@nebraska.edu) who can assist!
