Teaching & Learning Grant

Members of the Iowa Council of Teachers of Mathematics may request funding up to $750 for professional learning or a project that supports access & equity for all students or is linked to the Iowa Core Mathematical Content and Practice Standards or the 8 Effective Teaching Practices.

Individuals or groups (which include any individuals previously receiving this grant) may receive at most one Teaching and Learning Grant every 2 calendar years. 

Recipients are to write a short newsletter article (300 - 500 words), with photos and captions, describing how the grant benefits students, families, teachers and or the mathematics department at your school or make 2-3 minutes of short videos (four to six 30 second videos) which show purchases being used or the activity the money was used to fund. (Please blur student faces). Please note if AI was used to help edit or polish your writing.

ICTM Teaching & Learning Grant applications are accepted on a rolling basis and will be awarded quarterly up to $6,000 per calendar year.


ICTM Conference Grant

ICTM will award two grants of up to $400 each to support an ICTM member's attendance at the ICTM Annual Conference. This grant can be used to help pay registration and travel expenses (transportation, hotel, and food up to $25/diem). This grant is designed to help teachers increase student achievement in mathematics by enhancing instructional methods through new learning at the ICTM conference.

Recipients are to write a short newsletter article (300 - 500 words), with photos and captions, describing their experience and any valuable takeaways from the conference or make 2-3 minutes of short video “commercials” (four to six 30 second videos) sharing their experiences at the conference and using key takeaways. (Please blur student faces). Please note if AI was used to help edit or polish your writing.

Recipients are also requested to share from the conference using the hashtag #IowaMathTeach.

Individuals may only receive this grant one time. Priority will be given to individuals attending the conference for the first time. 

ICTM Conference Grant applications are due August 31.


NCTM Conference Grant

ICTM offers a grant to help a member attend an NCTM annual meeting and conference. The grant is intended to offset the cost of attendance, making it more feasible for members to participate in this valuable professional development opportunity.

ICTM members who have never attended the NCTM conference are especially encouraged to apply.

The grant will be paid in two installments. Both require receipts to be submitted to ictmgrants@gmail.com.

The first installment will reimburse the recipient for the cost of early-bird conference registration as soon as the payment is made and the receipt is submitted.

The second installment will be reimbursement of up to $1200 for travel, hotel, and meals (no alcohol). Again, payment will be made once the receipts are submitted and information about the experience has been shared.

Recipients are to write a short newsletter article (300 - 500 words), with photos and captions, describing their experience and any valuable takeaways from the conference or make 2-3 minutes of short video “commercials” (four to six 30 second videos) sharing their experiences at the conference and using key takeaways. (Please blur student faces). Please note if AI was used to help edit or polish your writing.

Recipients are also requested to share from the conference using the hashtag #IowaMathTeach.

Individuals may only receive this grant one time. Priority will be given to individuals attending the conference for the first time. 

NCTM Conference Grant applications for attendance at the Annual Meeting & Exposition (fall) are due June 30.

NCTM Conference Grant applications for attendance at the Spring Conference are due December 31.
