Magann Dykema, originally from Norton Shores, Michigan, is a University Innovation Fellow from the Spring 2015 cohort. She is a graduate of [[Michigan Tech|Michigan Technological University]] with a B.S in Civil Engineering with a focus on Water Resourcing and a Certificate of Global Technological Leadership through the Pavlis Honors College. She is currently pursuing a M.S.Ed. in Student Affairs Administration from the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse. 

Magann is a strong believer in paying it forward. Because of this, she spent her first two summers of her college career working for Michigan Tech’s Summer Youth Programs because the programs she attended in high school played a large role in her decision in school and major. Additionally, she spent time as an Orientation Team Leader paying it forward because the guidance from her OTL helped make the transition to college easier.

At Michigan Tech, she worked on spreading the culture of innovation by planning and facilitating creativity, design thinking, and innovation events on campus. These include, but are not limited to, [[Uifresh|#uifresh]] during orientation, an elementary aged after-school class, and smaller workshops and events. She also was a part of The Alley Makerspace on campus where she was the Operations Coordinator and the Student Director.

When not hard at work, Magann can be found trying to relax by striking it up on the nearest lanes, drinking coffee, watching Gilmore Girls, exploring the outdoors, cheering on the Detroit Tigers, or creating memories with friends and family.

Fellow:Nathaniel jordan

2018-11-03T14:31:48Z

Medykema:

Nate says he became a university innovation fellow because he seeks to attain a Ph.D in Biotechnology and a masters in entrepreneurship to later start his own biotechnology firm. He is inspired by the story of the honorable Ronald E. McNair and the ideals of hard work and persistence exemplified within the McNair Scholars Program, a program he joined last spring. 

 

He is the founder and CEO of SPREKK Technology Services, LLC. Nate uses his interest in technology and entrepreneurial spirit to offer affordable phone repair to students and members of the community.

 

 

One interesting fact about him is that he is extremely curious in knowing how the natural world works. This interest has led him to learn more about plants and pursue a degree in Plant Biology. Nate is currently a junior at Southern Illinois University Carbondale!

Fellow:Nathaniel jordan

2018-11-03T14:31:25Z

Medykema:

Nate says he became a university innovation fellow because he seeks to attain a Ph.D in Biotechnology and a masters in entrepreneurship to later start his own biotechnology firm. He is inspired by the story of the honorable Ronald E. McNair and the ideals of hard work and persistence exemplified within the McNair Scholars Program, a program he joined last spring. 

 

He is the founder and CEO of SPREKK Technology Services, LLC. Nate uses his interest in technology and entrepreneurial spirit to offer affordable phone repair to students and members of the community.

 

 

One interesting fact about him is that he is extremely curious in knowing how the natural world works. This interest has led him to learn more about plants and pursue a degree in Plant Biology. Nate is currently a junior at Southern Illinois University Carbondale!

= Faculty Innovation & Entrepreneurship =

The Office of Economic and Regional Development at Research Park has made strides in helping professors and researchers on campus to commercialize their research through a 12 week program called "Operation Mousetrap". Operation Mousetrap held its inaugural sessions in 2010 and features keynote speakers that are experts in their own business and law related fields. The participants of Operation Mousetrap also learn to create a mock business plan and sales pitch for their business, and must do so to graduate from the course. This program has helped many professors to form successful businesses, including Dr. Ken Anderson, the CSO and founder of Thermaquatica.

With the availability of the Southern Illinois Research Park the faculty of SIU have not hesitated to pursue their own passion and research while bringing a few or even many of their students along for the journey of innovation and entrepreneurship. Thermaquatica founder Dr. Ken Anderson has developed the OGD concept, and has served as PI on four grants funded by the Illinois Clean Coal INstitute to explore the concept and develop the fundamental technology. He is a full professor in the Department of Geoplogy, at SIUC.

Jack Crelling, PhD how is a Board Member & Technical Advisor for Thermaquatica joined the SIUC faculty in 1977 as a professor and the Leader of Coal Characterization Laboratory and the Maceral Separation Laboratory. He retired from active teaching in 2006 and now continues on the faculty as a Research Professor DxR Development Group, INC. DxR Development Group's roots are in education... specifically, medical education. In 1990,Southern Illinois University School of Medicine Professors Hurley Myers, PhD and Kevin Dorsey, MD, PhD, collaborated with software engineer Eldon Benz to produce a computer simulation program that allowed medical students to conduct a clinical investigation using a virtual patient. The program recorded the students' decisions, allowing faculty to review how the student reasoned through the patient problem. From this effort, Diagnostic Reasoning, the precursor to what is now known as DxR Clinician, was born. Clinician has since been translated into Japanese, Chinese, and Spanish and is used in at least a dozen countries.

= Technology Transfer =

= Faculty Innovation & Entrepreneurship =

The Office of Economic and Regional Development at Research Park has made strides in helping professors and researchers on campus to commercialize their research through a 12 week program called "Operation Mousetrap". Operation Mousetrap held its inaugural sessions in 2010 and features keynote speakers that are experts in their own business and law related fields. The participants of Operation Mousetrap also learn to create a mock business plan and sales pitch for their business, and must do so to graduate from the course. This program has helped many professors to form successful businesses, including Dr. Ken Anderson, the CSO and founder of Thermaquatica.

With the availability of the Southern Illinois Research Park the faculty of SIU have not hesitated to pursue their own passion and research while bringing a few or even many of their students along for the journey of innovation and entrepreneurship. Thermaquatica founder Dr. Ken Anderson has developed the OGD concept, and has served as PI on four grants funded by the Illinois Clean Coal INstitute to explore the concept and develop the fundamental technology. He is a full professor in the Department of Geoplogy, at SIUC.

Jack Crelling, PhD how is a Board Member & Technical Advisor for Thermaquatica joined the SIUC faculty in 1977 as a professor and the Leader of Coal Characterization Laboratory and the Maceral Separation Laboratory. He retired from active teaching in 2006 and now continues on the faculty as a Research Professor DxR Development Group, INC. DxR Development Group's roots are in education... specifically, medical education. In 1990,Southern Illinois University School of Medicine Professors Hurley Myers, PhD and Kevin Dorsey, MD, PhD, collaborated with software engineer Eldon Benz to produce a computer simulation program that allowed medical students to conduct a clinical investigation using a virtual patient. The program recorded the students' decisions, allowing faculty to review how the student reasoned through the patient problem. From this effort, Diagnostic Reasoning, the precursor to what is now known as DxR Clinician, was born. Clinician has since been translated into Japanese, Chinese, and Spanish and is used in at least a dozen countries.

= Faculty Innovation & Entrepreneurship =

The Office of Economic and Regional Development at Research Park has made strides in helping professors and researchers on campus to commercialize their research through a 12 week program called "Operation Mousetrap". Operation Mousetrap held its inaugural sessions in 2010 and features keynote speakers that are experts in their own business and law related fields. The participants of Operation Mousetrap also learn to create a mock business plan and sales pitch for their business, and must do so to graduate from the course. This program has helped many professors to form successful businesses, including Dr. Ken Anderson, the CSO and founder of Thermaquatica.

With the availability of the Southern Illinois Research Park the faculty of SIU have not hesitated to pursue their own passion and research while bringing a few or even many of their students along for the journey of innovation and entrepreneurship. Thermaquatica founder Dr. Ken Anderson has developed the OGD concept, and has served as PI on four grants funded by the Illinois Clean Coal INstitute to explore the concept and develop the fundamental technology. He is a full professor in the Department of Geoplogy, at SIUC.

Jack Crelling, PhD how is a Board Member & Technical Advisor for Thermaquatica joined the SIUC faculty in 1977 as a professor and the Leader of Coal Characterization Laboratory and the Maceral Separation Laboratory. He retired from active teaching in 2006 and now continues on the faculty as a Research Professor DxR Development Group, INC. DxR Development Group's roots are in education... specifically, medical education. In 1990,Southern Illinois University School of Medicine Professors Hurley Myers, PhD and Kevin Dorsey, MD, PhD, collaborated with software engineer Eldon Benz to produce a computer simulation program that allowed medical students to conduct a clinical investigation using a virtual patient. The program recorded the students' decisions, allowing faculty to review how the student reasoned through the patient problem. From this effort, Diagnostic Reasoning, the precursor to what is now known as DxR Clinician, was born. Clinician has since been translated into Japanese, Chinese, and Spanish and is used in at least a dozen countries.

'''Serving as UIF Since:''' Spring 2015 '''School: '''Michigan Technological University '''What she does now:''' Fifth Year Civil Engineering Student and Design Thinking Enthusiast '''What that means:''' Focusing on Water Resources in school while also following her passion of teaching design thinking and using it on a daily basis

'''Contact her about:'''  Teaching design thinking to all ages, improv, organizing things '''Email: '''medykema@mtu.edu '''Phone: '''(231)-670-6782

 

Magann Dykema, originally from Norton Shores, Michigan, is a University Innovation Fellow from the Spring 2015 cohort. She is a fifth year undergraduate student at [[Michigan Tech|Michigan Technological University]] studying Civil Engineering with a focus on Water Resourcing. She is pursuing a Certificate in Global Technological Leadership through the Pavlis Honors College where she spent this last summer in Brazil. In Brazil, all of her design thinking training was tested out in the world where she heavily focused on the empathy and define steps in order to look for projects for future teams in her program. This summer, she is living and working in Massachusetts as an intern for UIF. 

Magann is a strong believer in paying it forward. Because of this, she spent her first two summers of her college career working for Michigan Tech’s Summer Youth Programs because the programs she attended in high school played a large role in her decision in school and major. Additionally, she has spent time as an Orientation Team Leader paying it forward because the guidance from her OTL helped make the transition to college easier.

At Michigan Tech, she has been working on spreading the culture of innovation by planning and facilitating creativity, design thinking, and innovation events on campus. These include, but are not limited to, [[Uifresh|#uifresh]] during orientation, an elementary aged after-school class, and smaller workshops and events. She has also been a part of The Alley Makerspace on campus where last year she was the Operations Coordinator and this year she is the Student Director.

When not hard at work between school, extracurriculars, and a job on campus, Magann can be found trying to relax by striking it up on the nearest lanes, drinking coffee, watching Gilmore Girls, exploring the outdoors, cheering on the Detroit Tigers, or creating memories with friends and family.

Hi friends! My name is Jill and I am a 2017 Fellow from Western Michigan University in Kalamazoo, Michigan. I graduated from WMU in April 2018 and have been working as a Market Development Specialist (doing market research) at Kalsec in Kalamazoo since then. When I'm not at work, I love to chill with my cats and friends, be outside (kayaking, hiking, camping, etc) and work on side projects. 

While I was in school, I worked on several projects with the help of UIF and my training, including growing our makerspace, establishing design thinking workshops in First Year Experience courses, and establishing a Student Projects Fund. One of my favorite aspects of my UIF experience was getting to work with so many passionate individuals from all walks of life and different educational backgrounds. I am a firm believer that diverse teams are the best teams!

Please feel free to get in touch any time via email (listed above). I would love to hear from you!

Valerie (Sherry) Caruolo has been a University Innovation Fellow at the University of Maryland since November 2013, where she is pursuing a Masters degree in[[File:Sherry.jpg|thumb|Sherry.jpg]] Architecture. Her thesis research involves designing informal networks for learning spaces and explores how spatial agency might promote discovery, learning, and play in the public realm. Might there be strategies in which space may enhance or support educational inquiry and interaction? How might we expand our concept of learning spaces within community constructs so that urban learning spaces might be thought of as a network of entry points to education and economic mobility for marginalized populations? As a fellow, Valerie works with university administrations, fellow students, as well as local, regional, and global partners using a system’s thinking approach to design learning experiences and spaces that empower stakeholders to engage in lateral thinking and implementation of their ideas.

As a fellow, Valerie is passionate about connecting people with diverse expertise in order to enhance communication and promote cross-fertilization between fields. At the University of Maryland, Valerie helped launch Social Design Lab, a student design community where student teams pursue their passions through social design projects with the support of interdisciplinary peers, and connected campus resources. Valerie also works as a Design Thinking Facilitator with UMD’s Academy for Innovation and Entrepreneurship helping to facilitate design thinking and lean Launchpad modules in current undergraduate courses. Valerie plays an active role in her school community connecting students, faculty, administration, and regional partners. In Spring 2013 she launched an initiative, Design Tent where participants with diverse expertise engage in opportunities to play under the same tent providing forums to exchange mutual knowledge. Since then she has continued to design curriculum that allows participants to actively venture outside their comfort zone. As a member of her school’s curriculum committee she seeks to ensure that seeking student voice and input is a common ingredient when decisions regarding changes to their educational environment are made.

As an undergraduate at Brown University, Valerie pursued personalized learning through a liberal arts driven inquiry. During her undergraduate academic career she constructed her architectural studies major around complimentary courses in art, engineering, urban economics, psychology, environmental science, social entrepreneurship and management science. Valerie was a four year Division I collegiate athlete on the Brown University Women’s Lacrosse Team where she learned the importance of a team centered attitude, drive and leadership. As a member of the Women’s Leadership Council and Women’s Launch Pad mentorship program she participated in engaging student and mentor interests. Throughout her academic career, Valerie has also studied at Universitat Pompeu Fabra, Universitat de Barcelona and Yestermorrow Design/Build School. In years leading to graduate school Valerie gained professional experience as a designer, architectural intern, construction manager, and building scientist. She is a CPHC (Certified Passive House Consultant), LEED AP and International Living Futures Institute member.

She loves learning new things, coffee and in her spare time enjoys outdoor sports, and traveling.

Emma is entering her junior year studying computer science at eh Colorado School of Mines, and became a fellow during her freshman year.

Emma began her work as a fellow focusing on curriculum redesign. She worked with the design department on campus to integrate stronger design thinking principles and engage better team development practices. She taught in a classroom for a semester, where she found her love of teaching and leading others to find their passions.

She helped establish Mine's Center for Entrepreneurship and Innovation, where she got into web design and learned a ton about making changes from the administrative side. This is also where she first got into web design!

Emma is currently focusing on creating a culture of creativity, passion, and kindness on her campus. She hopes to reshape how students view the purpose of their education- that the final goal not be to recieve a degree but rather discover a driving passion.

'''Fellow Since''': Fall 2014 '''School''': Grand Valley State University '''Interests''': Student experience design, curriculum development and design, business service design, innovation, product design, medical device design, entrepreneurship, engineering, and materials science.

'''Get a hold of me! ''' kchristopher00@gmail.com 616-477-2083

Kathryn Christopher usually goes by KC to most of her friends. KC graduated in 2015 with a Bachelors of Science in Engineering, studying Product Design and Manufacturing Enginering at Grand Valley State University in Grand Rapids, MI. Currently, she holds a full-time Visiting Faculty position at GVSU and will complete her Master's in Engineering this summer. She has done research in materials science and medical device development and has experience in entrepreneurship. 

KC has worked on a variety of things at GVSU since becoming a fellow there in 2014. In her first year, she started an innovation club that eventually morphed into the design thinking club at GVSU. During her junior year, KC started a medical device company, obtaining a patent, completeing the I-Corps Program, and presenting in Open Minds. eventually however, that company failed, and since then she has helped contract at several other startups. Some of her experience includes freelancing as an experience designer at Thoughtfull Studios ([https://www.thoughtfulldesign.com/ https://www.thoughtfulldesign.com/]) and helping to lauch a successful kickstarter campaign for MOBI ([https://trainoutpainperformance.com/products/mobi).&nbsp https://trainoutpainperformance.com/products/mobi]/) 

As a fellow, KC worked on a variety of things, but her largest success story was changing the freshman engineering curriculum to include innovation, entrepreneruial thinking, and design thinking. Now every student at Grand Valley will be exposed to project-based learning using the design thinking process in their first year. She is studying the effect of this change on student outcomes and is hoping to write about using design thinking in enginering pedagogy eventually. KC is now an advisor for the current fellows at her school and is in charge of recruiting and managing the applications with the faculty chamption, Dr. Paul Lane. While it might seem like a small task for some schools, another one of KC's largest accomplishments as a fellow was simply finding a sustainable funding source and home for the fellows program within Grand Valley. 

In the past two years, KC has begun to expand some of her work interationally, and frequently travels to Nicaragua to promote innovation, practice empathy, and run workshops at the largest national univeristy, UNAN-Managua. In Fall of 2017, KC helped to expand the fellows program to UNAN as the first central american university in the program. Additionally, this experience has allowed KC the opportunity to be a part of a group of faculty at Grand Valley focused on providing mentoring, advice, and design thinking workshops to students and faculty accross campus.

Kathryn Christopher usually goes by KC to most of her friends. KC graduated in 2015 with a Bachelors of Science in Engineering, studying Product Design and Manufacturing Enginering at Grand Valley State University in Grand Rapids, MI. Currently, she holds a full-time Visiting Faculty position at GVSU and will complete her Master's in Engineering this summer. She has done research in materials science and medical device development and has experience in entrepreneurship. 

KC has worked on a variety of things at GVSU since becoming a fellow there in 2014. In her first year, she started an innovation club that eventually morphed into the design thinking club at GVSU. During her junior year, KC started a medical device company, obtaining a patent, completeing the I-Corps Program, and presenting in Open Minds. eventaully however, that company failed, and since she has helped contract at several other startups. Some of her experience includes freelancing as an experience designer at Thoughtfull Studios (https://www.thoughtfulldesign.com/) and helping to lauch a successful kickstarter campaign for MOBI (https://trainoutpainperformance.com/products/mobi). 

As a fellow, KC worked on a variety of things, but her largest success story was changing the freshman engineering curriculum to include innovation, entrepreneruial thinking, and design thinking. Now every student at Grand Valley will be exposed to project-based learning using the design thinking process in their first year. She is studying the effect of this change on student outcomes and is hoping to write about using design thinking in enginering pedagogy eventually. KC now is an advisor for the current fellows at her school and is in charge of recruiting and managing the applications with the faculty chamption, Dr. Paul Lane. While it might seem like a small task for some schools, another one KC's largest accomplishments as a fellow was simply finding a sustainable funding source and home for the fellows program within Grand Valley. 

In the past two years, KC has begun to expand some of her work interatinoally, and frequently travels ti Nicaragua to promote inovation, practice empathy, and run workshops at the largest national univeristy, UNAN-Managua. In Fall of 2017, KC help to expand the fellows program to UNAN as the first central american university in the program. Additinoally, this experience has allowed KC the opportunity to be a part of a group of faculty a Grand Valley focused on providing mentoring, advice, and design thinking workshops to students and faculty accross campus.

Magann Dykema, originally from Norton Shores, Michigan, is a University Innovation Fellow from the Spring 2015 cohort. She is a fifth year undergraduate student at [[Michigan Tech|Michigan Technological University]] studying Civil Engineering with a focus on Water Resourcing. She is pursuing a Certificate in Global Technological Leadership through the Pavlis Honors College where she spent this last summer in Brazil. In Brazil, all of her design thinking training was tested out in the world where she heavily focused on the empathy and define steps in order to look for projects for future teams in her program. This summer, she is living and working in Massachusetts as an intern for UIF. 

Magann is a strong believer in paying it forward. Because of this, she spent her first two summers of her college career working for Michigan Tech’s Summer Youth Programs because the programs she attended in high school played a large role in her decision in school and major. Additionally, she has spent time as an Orientation Team Leader paying it forward because the guidance from her OTL helped make the transition to college easier.

At Michigan Tech, she has been working on spreading the culture of innovation by planning and facilitating creativity, design thinking, and innovation events on campus. These include, but are not limited to, [[Uifresh|#uifresh]] during orientation, an elementary aged after-school class, and smaller workshops and events. She has also been a part of The Alley Makerspace on campus where last year she was the Operations Coordinator and this year she is the Student Director.

When not hard at work between school, extracurriculars, and a job on campus, Magann can be found trying to relax by striking it up on the nearest lanes, drinking coffee, watching Gilmore Girls, exploring the outdoors, cheering on the Detroit Tigers, or creating memories with friends and family.
