<span style="font-size:medium;"></span><span style="color: rgb(66, 69, 69); font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 1.4; font-size: medium;">Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) is a global research university with more than 13,200 students, 100,000 alumni and 5,000 faculty and staff. </span>
<span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.4; font-size: medium;">CMU has been a birthplace of innovation since its founding in 1900.</span>
== <span style="font-size:medium;">IDeATe Program</span> ==
<span style="font-size:medium;">The '''I'''ntegrative '''De'''sign, '''A'''rts and '''Te'''chnology Network (</span><span style="font-size:medium;">IDeATe</span><span style="font-size:medium;">) at Carnegie Mellon University connects diverse strengths across CMU to advance education, research and creative practice in domains that merge technology and </span><span style="font-size:medium;">arts</span><span style="font-size:medium;">expertise.</span>
<span style="font-size:medium;">IDeATe</span><span style="font-size:medium;">supports eight interrelated undergraduate concentration areas, all of which can also be taken as minors. The themes of these areas integrate knowledge in technology and arts: game design, animation and special effects, media design, sound design, learning media design, entrepreneurship for creative industries, intelligent environments, and physical computing.</span>
<span style="font-size:medium;">The </span><span style="font-size:medium;'''I'''ntegrative '''De'''sign, '''A'''rts and '''Te'''chnology Network (">IDeATe) at Carnegie Mellon University connects diverse strengths across CMU to advance education, research and creative practice in domains that merge technology and arts expertise. IDeATe supports eight interrelated undergraduate concentration areas, all of which can also be taken as minors. The themes of these areas integrate knowledge in technology and arts</span><span style="font-size: game design, animation and special effects, media design, sound design, learning media design, entrepreneurship for creative industries, intelligent environments, and physical computing. The IDeATe medium;">concentrations aim to train a student to be excellent in one area of technology or arts and be able to collaborate within diverse cohorts of technology and </span><span style="font-size:medium;">arts </span><span style="font-size:medium;">experts. To achieve this goal, </span><span style="font-size:medium;">IDeATe </span><span style="font-size:medium;">has sponsored the development of 30 new interdisciplinary technology-arts studio based courses. These studio classes are focused on </span><span style="font-size:medium;">hands on </span><span style="font-size:medium;">collaborative learning and are structured to combine students from many different disciplines. The curriculum is being developed and delivered by 65 faculty across 15 different academic units of CMU and being delivered at the new IDEATE collaborative making facility housed at the central Hunt Library.</span>
= Strategy 1: IDeATe Layout =
<font size="3">The axis of any community is its members and IDeATe is no different. In order to strengthen the sense of community in IDeATe, students must feel comfortable enough to work in the space whether or not a project is due the next morning. With more students working in IDeATe, there is a higher chance students from different concentrations will interact and communicate, thus building a core community.</font>
<font size="3"></font><span style="font-size: medium;">By changing the physical layout of the IDeATe classrooms, spaces can be tailored to act as both group work spaces and places for individuals to work on their own unrelated projects. Small alterations such as table placement, wall color, and material organization can go a long way when creating an inviting work space.</span>
= Strategy 2: Interaction of IDeATe Minors =
== <span style="font-size:medium;">IDeATe Capstone Project</span> ==
== <span style="font-size:medium;">IDeATe Tutoring</span> ==
== <span style="font-size:medium;">Student Recognition</span> ==
= Strategy 3: IDeATe/Community Involvement =
== <span style="font-size:medium;">Campus Calendar</span> ==
== <span style="font-size:medium;">IDeATe Hackathons</span> ==
<span style="font-size:medium;">Hackathons are a great way to encourage collaboration and group work in a fun, experimental setting. By hosting an IDeATe hackathon, students from different concentrations will be encouraged to pull their individual talents and collaborate on quick interdisciplinary projects that can then be expanded upon later in the semester.</span>
<span style="font-size: medium;">Also, by hosting such events in IDeATe, it will encourage all non-affiliated participants to explore the opportunities hosted by the IDeATe.</span><span style="font-size:medium;"></span>
== <span style="font-size:medium;">Monthly Pop-up Events</span> ==
We think these are important and we will soon post a plan.
