Some Free Software and Platforms

Request to Purchase Software or Web Apps for Teaching and Learning

Technology tools/software applications can be used in teaching and learning to promote and engage students in achieving the course objectives. Faculty can request purchasing a software application based on sound pedagogy by submitting a request for proposal. All granted purchasing requests will be processed via purchase order.

Proposals will be reviewed and approved by the Tech Fee Committee.

If it is approved, a report needs to be submitted, after using the tool for a semester, to the Tech Fee Committee that summaries the experience and effectiveness of the tool in the class(es) with some examples created with the tool.

Please note all teaching environments are subject to CUNY policies and procedures such as privacy/FERPA, content copyright, licensing, data retention, reliability (SLA, e.g. service level agreement) etc. and these should be considered in full.

Download both forms. Send the RFP to Dr. Greet Van Belle. If approved, send the report after using it for a semester.
