TAC Impact

TAC has received national and international recognition for its contributions to higher education. TAC won the 2001 Educause Award for Systemic Progress in Teaching and Learning as well as the 2001 Educause Quarterly Contribution of the Year for an article co-authored by Anne Scrivener Agee and Dee Ann Holisky. TAC was also a finalist for The Stockholm Challenge Award 2000 in the category of Education. The program continues to be cited as a model for programs seeking to enhance education and information literacy.

Begun in 1998 with funds from the Commonwealth of Virginia, TAC has supported 157 projects affecting over 136 courses from 17 different departments affecting more than 15,000 students.
