Winners were announced last week in the inaugural Digital Media and Learning Competition. Here we reblog Cathy Davidson’s piece from the HASTAC blog on the challenges of providing comments and feedback to proposals that did not receive an award.

“We hate it that the magnitude of the Competition overwhelmed our tiny crew (and our heroic, overworked judges) and that we cannot provide individual comments and feedback on proposals that did not receive an award. But we hope to offer some general comments that might be useful to those writing a grant for the first time and we’re exploring tools for allowing people to comment on one another’s proposals, peer-to-peer. Stay tuned!” Read the full post.
