Amber 1xbet sports betting , assistant professor of marriage and family therapy in the College of Human Ecology, submitted a project to Experiment.com, a crowdfunding site that urges people to “support science you care about” and “help fund the next wave of scientific 1xbet sports betting ,” in December 2015. The site gives researchers 30 days to raise funds.

1xbet sports betting just found out her effort was successful. “Working on What Works: Testing the Power of Highlighting the Positive” explores the impact of a classroom intervention technique that uses a solution-focused approach and positive reinforcement. 1xbet sports betting looks forward to connecting with her funders throughout the duration of her project.

“For the applied projects I do — and this one in particular is local — crowdfunding is giving the community the chance to be involved in the 1xbet sports betting . On the site I used, anyone who donates or supports the project gets updates on how it’s going and an inside look at the 1xbet sports betting process and outcomes. With the school districts I work with, making that connection is important,” Vennum said.

Adassa Roe, grants and contracts administrator with PreAward Services, worked with 1xbet sports betting on her proposal.

“She was interested in crowdfunding, and we discussed how to go about it. She did the homework to see which site was advantageous. Some sites aren’t really geared toward institutional or community-based projects,” Roe said.

Although the award documents and budget process differed from more conventional 1xbet sports betting funding sources, Roe says the minor adjustments weren’t difficult. She expects other researchers to explore crowdfunding in the near future.

“We know from our 1xbet sports betting administrator listserv that this topic is coming up,” she said.

“Crowdfunding is such a part of our culture right now — I think it’s going to really take off. K-State’s going to be equipped to handle it,” Roe said.

Roe anticipates that other faculty member on campus will be interested in seeking crowdfunding opportunities. Funding graduate 1xbet sports betting assistants to help sort through data and complete projects is one example of a need crowdfunding could help fill, but wider applications are also possible.

“The reality is that traditional funding sources for applied education and social science 1xbet sports betting are a bit strapped at the moment, so I thought ‘what else can we do?’” Vennum said.

1xbet sports betting is exploring crowdfunding options for another project and may use another site to better fit the audience. She knows the staff in PreAward Services will be up for the challenge.

“I was impressed. Crowdfunding isn’t necessarily easy, but working with PreAward Services is easy. They have a sense of adventure,” she said.

Michelle Toews, associate dean for 1xbet sports betting and scholarship in the College of Human Ecology, said she is impressed with Vennum’s ability to find an innovative funding source.

“Funding for such projects is scarce, but 1xbet sports betting thought outside the box and was successful in securing funding. I’m happy to see the College of Human Ecology paving the way for others interested in securing crowdfunding to support their scholarly endeavors,” she said.
