SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Full Text of Announcement
I. Funding Opportunity Description
Purpose of Program: The Digital Learning Infrastructure and IT
Modernization Pilot provides grants to Historically Black Colleges and
Universities (HBCUs), Tribal Colleges or Universities (TCUs), and other
eligible minority-serving institutions (MSIs) to support IT
modernization, and to enable them to provide support and technical
assistance to expand their digital learning infrastructure.
Background: Digital infrastructure brings together and
interconnects multiple resources, including physical, virtual, human,
and social. Physical and virtual resources include technologies, such
as computer, storage, network, application, and various platforms, to
build the foundation for an institution of higher education's (IHE)
digital operation. Human and social resources include the human
knowledge and skills, professional development, and ongoing technical
assistance needed to sustain an institution's digital operation. As
such, digital learning infrastructure encompasses the key data systems,
technologies, and human capital, needed to enable actions that allow
for everywhere, all-the-time learning and ensure greater equity and
accessibility to learning opportunities for students, staff, and
faculty in person, at a distance, or a combination thereof. Over the
last two years, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, IHEs pivoted to
increase their online learning footprint, and both students and
institutions have become more dependent on virtual
[[Page 64466]]
learning and technologies that support hybrid learning environments.
These changes in how institutions incorporate technologies in
learning bring about challenges, such as the need for improved
infrastructure that allows for adoption of reliable, high-speed devices
and broadband (as defined in this notice) for multiple users and other
technologies that allow for student engagement. Congress included $4
million in the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2022 (Pub. L. 117-103)
to strengthen digital learning infrastructure at MSIs, HBCUs, and TCUs.
Given the need of many HBCUs, TCUs, and other MSIs to improve upon
their technologies and systems to continue to upgrade their
opportunities for virtual learning, the grant program seeks
applications from these institutions to enhance their digital learning
infrastructure. In this competition we require applicants to develop or
enhance and implement digital learning infrastructure plans that
address the leadership, human capital, instruction, and IT strategies
that will improve the institution's capacity to seamlessly expand
learning and promote innovation that improves student outcomes.
Additionally, we are requiring applicants to include dissemination
plans of their digital learning infrastructure plans to other
institutions.
Priority: This notice contains one absolute priority.
We are establishing this priority for the FY 2022 grant competition
and any subsequent year in which we make awards from the list of
unfunded applications from this competition, in accordance with section
437(d)(1) of the General Education Provisions Act (GEPA), 20 U.S.C.
1232(d)(1).
Absolute Priority: This priority is an absolute priority. Under 34
CFR 75.105(c)(3), we consider only applications that meet this
priority.
This priority is:
Projects to Develop or Improve the Institution's Digital Learning
Infrastructure.
Proposed projects that address all of the following areas:
(a) Leadership: Describe how the institution will equitably and
efficiently sustain progress toward digital learning and how
institutional governance, resources, and collaboration with external
partners will support and drive change to improve the learning
environment for students, faculty, and staff.
(b) Human Capacity: Describe the institution's plan to address the
professional development needs of leadership, faculty, and staff, which
will allow for active learning opportunities enabled through technology
for students as they work toward a certificate or degree.
(c) Approach to networks and infrastructure: Describe how the
institution will strategically maximize resources to provide equitable
access to and adoption of devices and broadband (as defined in this
notice) and ensure adequate infrastructure for digital learning,
including reliable, high-speed access. Applicants must describe how
their projects will ensure greater equity and accessibility to learning
opportunities for all students by providing support to ensure that the
technology supports active teaching and learning practices.
(d) Content, Instruction, and Assessment: Describe how vendors will
be vetted and evaluated to ensure that their products and services can
meet the institution's digital learning infrastructure needs and goals
for high-quality, active teaching and learning. The plan must address
how the institution will develop and implement standards for high-
quality digital learning in their courses and programs, provide
coaching and professional development for faculty and leadership, and
support students in the adoption and effective use of technology for
learning.
(e) Coordination and collaboration: Describe how the institution
will take a systemic approach by collaborating with other IHEs and/or
other public, private, and nonprofit entities toward a systemic
approach to address the purchase of broadband internet access service
and/or any eligible equipment, and the hiring and training of
information technology personnel.
Definitions: We are establishing definitions for ``adoption of
devices and broadband,'' ``digital learning infrastructure,'' ``high
speed access,'' ``Historically Black colleges and universities,''
``minority-serving institution,'' and ``Tribal College or University''
for the FY 2022 grant competition and any subsequent year in which we
make awards from the list of unfunded applications from this
competition, in accordance with section 437(d)(1) of GEPA. The
remaining definitions are from 34 CFR part 77.1.
Adoption of devices and broadband means the process by which an
individual obtains daily access to the internet at a speed, quality,
and capacity that qualifies as an advanced telecommunications
capability with the digital skills that are necessary for the
individual to participate in online learning, on a personal device, and
on a secure and convenient network.
Demonstrates a rationale means a key project component included in
the project's logic model is informed by research or evaluation
findings that suggest the project component is likely to improve
relevant outcomes.
Digital learning infrastructure means physical, virtual, human, and
social assets related to the sustainable dissemination and adoption of
digital technologies for learning. Physical and virtual assets include,
but are not limited to, mobile and internet communications, spectrum,
macro cell towers, data centers, fiber networks, and small cell
networks, used both synchronously and asynchronously. Human and social
assets include, but are not limited to, personnel recruitment,
knowledge/needs assessments, resources, professional development, and
technical assistance needed to sustain the dissemination and adoption
of digital technologies for learning.
High speed access means access that is not less than 100 megabits
per second for downloads nor 20 megabits per second for uploads and
latency that is sufficient to support real-time, interactive
applications.
Historically Black colleges and universities means colleges and
universities that meet the criteria set out in 34 CFR 608.2.
Logic model (also referred to as a theory of action) means a
framework that identifies key project components of the proposed
project (i.e., the active ``ingredients'' that are hypothesized to be
critical to achieving the relevant outcomes) and describes the
theoretical and operational relationships among the key project
components and relevant outcomes.
Note: In developing logic models, applicants may want to use
resources such as the Regional Educational Laboratory Program's (REL
Pacific) Education Logic Model Application, available at https://ies.ed.gov/ncee/edlabs/regions/pacific/elm.asp, to help design their
logic models. Other sources include: https://ies.ed.gov/ncee/edlabs/regions/pacific/pdf/REL_2014025.pdf, https://ies.ed.gov/ncee/edlabs/regions/pacific/pdf/REL_2014007.pdf, and https://ies.ed.gov/ncee/edlabs/regions/northeast/pdf/REL_2015057.pdf.
Minority-serving institution means an institution that is eligible
to receive assistance under sections 316 through 320 of part A of title
III, under part B of title III, or under title V of the Higher
Education Act of 1965, as amended (HEA).
[[Page 64467]]
Project component means an activity, strategy, intervention,
process, product, practice, or policy included in a project. Evidence
may pertain to an individual project component or to a combination of
project components (e.g., training teachers on instructional practices
for English learners and follow-on coaching for these teachers).
Relevant outcome means the student outcome(s) or other outcome(s)
the key project component is designed to improve, consistent with the
specific goals of the program.
Tribal College or University has the meaning ascribed it in section
316(b)(3) of the HEA.
Waiver of Proposed Rulemaking: Under the Administrative Procedure
Act (5 U.S.C. 553), the Department generally offers interested parties
the opportunity to comment on proposed priorities, selection criteria,
definitions, and other requirements. Section 437(d)(1) of GEPA,
however, allows the Secretary to exempt from rulemaking requirements
regulations governing the first grant competition under a new or
substantially revised program authority. This is the first grant
competition for this program under 20 U.S.C. 1138-1138d of the HEA, and
therefore qualifies for this exemption. In order to ensure timely grant
awards, the Secretary has decided to forgo public comment on the
priority, definitions, and funding requirements under section 437(d)(1)
of GEPA.
Program Authority: 20 U.S.C. 1138-1138d; the Explanatory Statement
