Grants and Awards Available from TESOL and ETS (they are in need of applicants!)

Did you know that many grants and awards were not given out at the TESOL conference?

Why? There were not enough applicants!
  • All applicants who applied for TESOL 2008 awards received them. Awards range from cash, free conference registration, and free travel expenses. Info can be found on the TESOL site under: Awards Committee.
  • TESOL resource center (book and materials writers) are in great need of writers. Cash grants are available. Info is on the TESOL site under: Book Publications Committee.
  • ETS (Educational Testing Service) has grants available for TOEFL material writers. Grants range from $2,000-$15,000. Grants are available for MA students, new teachers, young scholars (under 40 years of age), doctoral students, and TESOL members. To find out more info go to: www.ets.org 1) click research, click TOEFL research, click for English Language Teachers, and then click Grants and Awards.

Has anyone ever received one of these grants? I knew there were some, but I have always heard more about volunteering for those who can't afford conferences and so on.
