It’s been a full year since we launched the Challenge Fund for Innovation in Journalism Education, a $1 million competition encouraging universities to create teams to experiment with new ways of providing news and information to their communities.
The 2014 Challenge Fund winners are in their first six months of experimentation and we look forward to sharing what they’re learning, but it’s already time to look for the next batch of innovation happening in schools across the country.
As we welcome the next round of applications, we’ve pulled together tips to help you submit an excellent application, increasing your chances of getting one of the $35,000 grants available. Learn what 100 Challenge Fund experiments taught us about what makes an experiment we’re likely to fund.
