=== <span style="font-size:medium;">'''PlanTactic #1: Community of Inspiration'''</span><br/> ===
1-Looking out for these inspiring students? Approach students asking them about an inspiring personnel in their surrounding on campus who they might look up to for advice, suggestions and so on. The inspiration doesn’t necessarily need to be related to good academic performance only.
=== <span style="font-size:medium;">'''Sparking interest: The short workshop series'''</span> ===
We would like to change the attitude students have towards their daily activities and help them shape and extend the way they utilize their talents and skill-based qualities to realize opportunities in their environment. In order to accomplish this, we need to create an interest in I&E, Innovation and Entrepreneurship and make students realize that Innovation is not bound to any major.<br/>We will be sparking interest through a series of student-led, short pop-up Inspire and Connect teaser activities, which will be held throughout the university. These activities will be between 20- 40 minutes long and rotate between different times, days and locations, to maximize exposure. These activities are designed to provoke students’ interest while having fun. Inspire and Connect will be sparking interest, in support of larger, more in-depth events held by the Innovation Centerand increase student attendance at these events. Activities include Makespace challenges, design thinking race, interesting facts on start-ups, problem-solving workshops, think tank to shark tank etc.

=== <span style="font-size:medium;">Plan</span><br/> ===
Creating a network of students who took this course and are encouraged to teach it to their friends who haven't. As we believe that our students may not be interested enough to enrol enroll into innovation courses, peer mentoring can be a great opportunity to generate interest and knowledge about innovation among students and would help us enlarge the community of innovators.
=== <span style="font-size:medium;">key steps</span> <br/> ===
Get more information from students about what they would like to be on that wall and how interactive they would like it. Start by a normal board where students can provide feedback and drop their ideas and rate events Secure funding and resources needed to provide the right wall (at a place where everyone can see it and stop by it) and the LCD with the videos/announcements on it. Get students feedback about the usefulness of the information wall and analyze the change it caused on our communication system (i.e. whether students will then be aware of the events happening and if enough of them are attending)

== Strategy priority #6: Expanding the I&E Spirit on campus ==
Peers play a significant role on campus. They have the ability to influence the behavior and attitude of other students. Empowering and encouraging students can have a positive impact in bringing up the true spirit of innovation. Students taking the lead can help expand the I&E spirit on campus. Providing them with the knowledge and sufficient resources can make a huge change. Students are usually observed to be more open with their peers, expressing simple ideas and thoughts of value.

== Strategy priority #7: Promoting Startups ==
After viewing our landscape canvas, we found out that there are very few or no startups by the students. Usually, after students graduate, they are then engaged with startups. The university can encourage students to have their own startups, by providing them with the right platform and resources. Student startups are not only essential but also necessary, this inspires and encourages other students to do the same.
