Jennifer Tilbury is this year’s recipient of the Brenda Pfaehler Professional Development research grant from the National College Learning Center Association. Tilbury is an associate professor of developmental writing and the director of student success and instructional support at the Community and Technical College.

The research grant will support a student success project in the CTC Math Lab and Writing Center over the coming academic year. The project will be to create and implement personalized student study plans leveraging a customizable open-education resource curriculum system with data-tracking capabilities. Plans can be used to supplement course materials during sessions with a tutor or to bridge content knowledge gaps. The project will culminate in a presentation at NCLCA’s annual conference in 2022 and submission of a journal article.
