Participant Expectations: NEH

All participants are required to submit a project evaluation at the end of the program.

Project applicants who accept an offer to participate are expected to remain during the entire period of the program and to participate in its work on a full-time basis. If a participant is obliged through special circumstances to depart before the end of the program, it shall be the recipient institution’s responsibility to see that only a pro rata share of the stipend is received or that the appropriate pro rata share of the stipend is returned if the participant has already received the full stipend.

Once an applicant has accepted an offer to attend any NEH Summer Program (Seminar, Institute, or Landmark), they may not accept an additional offer or withdraw in order to accept a different offer.


Participant Expectations: ASDP

All of the faculty selected to participate in the Institute will be expected to draft a detailed course module, syllabus or research project reflecting Institute content and themes. Modules and syllabi should include draft bibliographies or assigned readings, as well as information about film or internet resources that will be used in teaching the module/course. The final two sessions in the Institute program will be devoted to sharing these projects.

Throughout the program, the Institute Director and key presenting faculty will be available to meet with participants individually and in small groups to assist in formulating and developing these projects. The Institute Director will also schedule meetings with small groups of participants early in the second week of the program to discuss their project ideas.

Participant Aspirations

Participants will also be invited to participate in the two online workshops that will be organized for Fall 2023 and Spring 2024. These opportunities to showcase participant takeaways are an important part of the project outreach.

NEH summer institutes are remarkable occasions for collaborative, communal learning and often have impacts that extend beyond the required curriculum projects. It is hoped that Institute participants will self-organize to edit a multidisciplinary volume for publication in the State University of New York Press Asian Studies Development Series. Books in the series are devoted to meeting needs of educators enhancing teaching and learning about Asian cultures and societies in the undergraduate classroom.
