Faculty in your College''' '''Project Lead:''' Alex Bybee '''BYU Potential Project Supporters:''' '''''Dean Madrian, President Worthin ''''' '''Project Description:''' Many student are unaware of the opportunities that come from networking with faculty, and if they do know they often feel uncomfortable reaching out. In order to create more opportunities for students and to help teachers empathize more with students we will create a lecture series class for campus networking. Each college will host a lecture series that features faculty who are willing to (brag) talk about their professional life and current research. At the conclusion of their lecture the teacher will explain how they might be able to help students find or create career paths in their area of expertise.  '''Key Tactics:''' *Hold focus groups with students from all the different majors to learn if this is beneficial everywhere across campus*Interview teacher to see if they agree to the efficacy of this idea*prototype an evening lecture about on campus networking and its importance. get feedback*Create curriculum and syllabus for the class. <div class="gs" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 20px; width: 950px; font-family: Roboto, RobotoDraft, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: medium;"><div class="ii gt" id=":o8" style="font-size: 0.875rem; direction: ltr; margin: 8px 0px 0px; padding: 0px; position: relative;"><div class="a3s aXjCH" id=":o7" style="overflow: hidden; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-stretch: normal; font-size: small; line-height: 1.5; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></div></div></div>=== Priority 2: Creating Opportunities for Experiential Learning === '''Class Field Trips'''<div dir="ltr"><div>'''Project Lead''': Emma Stratton '''BYU Potential Project Supporters:''' Dean Madrian, President Worthin, Matt Durden '''Project Description''': Requiring classes to participate in one field trip per semester and do a project related to the field trip.  The intention is to allow students to see real world problems related to their field and apply the skills they are learning. '''Key Tactics:''' Meet with Deans of a few schools to get the idea supported Present field trip and project ideas to 300 level professors Meet with a few 300 level professors who would be willing to test it for one semester Attend field trips and preview projects Survey students and teachers to receive feedback Slowly implement field trips into other classes</div></div> === Priority 3: Increase Collaborative Spaces on Campus  ===<div>'''Glass Box for group study and projects'''</div><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">'''Project Lead''': Kyle Macdonald  '''<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">BYU Potential Project Supporters: ''' <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Mat Duerden & Tim W McClain  <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">'''Project Description''': <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">My goal is to create an outdoor study area for the students of BYU than gives them a new, invigorating experience. This study area will be an insulated room that is made of thick, transparent glass. The room will provide students with the BYU outdoor study experience while being protected from the weather (snow, rain, etc.); and it will also provide a group study area in natural light along with the ambiance of not being crowded into a building. Ventilation will come from the floor, connected to the pipes and tunnels under the university. Electricity for night time study groups will be solar-powered. The room will be reserved via an online reservation platform. Inside you will find a large (white or blue) study table that is elevated and has differentiating colored stools. Power outlets will be available on the table through circuit wires that come from an electrical connection in the ground. Small windows may be opened by sliding, and there will also be a sliding door. Preferably, this study room will be a BYU grass area that has some landscaping surrounding it and also has a pathway that leads straightway to the door.  '''<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Key Tactics: '''<ul style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;"><li>Perform a 3D model with proper metrics that I have taken from multiple areas throughout campus </li><li>Perform financial analysis for the project </li><li>Perform interviews for possible stakeholders </li></ul> === Priority 4: Increase Collaborative Spaces on Campus  === '''Faculty Mentors in the Business School''' <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">'''Project Lead: '''Brooke Sprencer '''<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">BYU Potential Project Supporters: ''' <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Dean Madrian, President Worthen, Paula '''Project Description''': In the Mariott Business School, faculty will be paired with students as mentors throughout their Junion and Senior year.

=== Priority 1: Increasing Interdisciplinary Space ===

~~====Interdisciplinary Offices====~~

'''Interdisciplinary ~~Empathy=======~~ Offices'''<br/span> ~~====~~ '''Project Lead:''' Gabe Walker

'''~~The~~ BYU ~~VR Experience~~Potential Project Supporters:'''

'''''To Be Determined'''''

'''Project Description:'''

Every school and building on our campus would have some sort of space dedicated to a different discipline, industry, or focus. For example, putting a STEM innovation space in the College of Fine Arts, or a Humanities Innovation space in the Business Building. This would provide students with opportunities to engage with ideas that are generally different from what they normally learn, and would teach these students how to be innovative in applying interdisciplinary ideas into their learning outcomes.

'''Key Tactics:'''

*Meet with each school administration to pitch idea.

*Identify unused space in each building.

*Find individuals willing to work and run the space (as volunteers or paid staff).

*Identify which disciplines would benefit the most from the different variety of spaces.

*Regularly analyze the effectiveness of the space and the amount of student interaction that takes place.

=== Priority 2: Increasing Interdisciplinary Empathy ===

'''The BYU VR Experience''' Project Lead: Ashley Paget BYU Potential Project Supporters: Mat Duerden Project Description: Creating a space for a Virtual Reality Experience for student development. Content would be developed to provide students with different experiences in classes, labs, and other hands on expereinces to help students learn more about different classes and majors. Other simulations would have job shadowing possibilities for students to experience the day to day of different careers. For example, students could be exposed to a 360 degree view of a physicians work day. This would allow students to explore different options and find what fits them best. '''BYU Interdisciplinary Case Competitions'''

'''Project Lead:''' Rachel Merrill

*Partner with the Ballard Center to utilize their public leverage in advertising this event.

=== Priority 3: Redesigning the First-Year Experience~~======= =~~===

'''Design Your "Y" Class'''

'''Project Lead:''' Rachel Merrill

'''BYU Potential Project Supporters:'''

Phillip D. Rash ''"First-Year Mentoring and Assistant Dean of Undergraduate Education at BYU"''

=== Priority 4: Finding purpose in General Education ===

====General Education App==== '''Project Lead''': Ashley Paget '''BYU Potential Project Supporters''': Patti Freeman, Associate Dean of General Education '''Project Idea''': Create a BYU General Education App for student's smartphones. This app would have students take an initial survey of background, interests, and goals and dreams. With these results users would be matched with certain GEs that fit them best. It would also have a feature that showed what students with similar results have taken. Users could then see the overall GE course list, favorite certain choices and register for others, and see professor reviews. There would also be a platform to buy and sell textbooks from GE courses.  '''Key Tactics''': *Receive approval *Connect with IS dpartment for app development*Design screens and graphics*Test basic functions in the library with students*Work out bugs *Link app to current BYU app ====General Education Think Tank==== '''Project Lead:''' Dallas Anderson '''BYU Potential Project Supporters:''' Patti Freeman ''"Associate Dean of General Education"'' Brian Hill ''"Professor of Experience Design and Management" and "UIF Faculty Champion"'' '''Project Idea:''' A brainstorm event to define and recreate the general education program at Brigham Young University. Develop new ideas and solutions to complement the General Education department's desire to improve the general education experience at BYU. Students ideate and prototype ideas for what they would want general education to look and feel like at BYU.  '''Key Tactics:''' *Provide paper, whiteboards, and other supplies for student ideation and prototyping.*Work with Brian to identify ExDM students with exceptional leadership and creativity skills to lead the event.*Gather feedback from online surveys from students who are unable to attend the event but still want to contribute.*Meet with Patti, Brian, and other stakeholders to identify the best ideas from the think tank.*Work with Patti and the General Education department to connect student ideas to the BYU Aims of Education and implement the best ideas on campus.
