There were a series of RFPs related to the Texas Virtual School Network that I became aware of last week (see http://www.tea.state.tx.us/technology/txvsn/ and http://www.tea.state.tx.us/tea/ProcOpp.html). This week it appears that it is California’s turn.
University of California Releases RFP for Course Development
The Procurement Department at the University of California, Santa Cruz (UCSC) has released a Request for Proposal to procure the services essential to accomplish a project for the campus-based University of California College Prep Online (UCCP). We seek the expertise of educational software/multimedia developers to develop the finest and most effective online courses and content in the world – educational content that will by its quality and vitality engage and stimulate students and educators.
The University of California College Prep encourages multimedia content developers to propose course designs that advance the state of the art beyond UCCP’s current collection (http://www.ucopenacess.org) and/or beyond courses from other sources. UCCP seeks innovation-radical or iterative-in service to students and teachers.
Access to the RFP is available on the UCSC Purchasing website at http://purchasing.ucsc.edu/suppliers/uccp-rfp.html
*All questions are to be directed to the UCSC Procurement Buyer, Nancy F. Nieblas, at nnieblas@ucsc.edu. *
If you have a background in mathematics, this may be something worth pursuing.
