A big component to prototype was the "establishment success of a mentoring program that exposes students my project will be Ian Sikora, as his idea is to off-campus, industry careers in hold a variety of capacities"--for design thinking challenge day.

First, we will develop a list of key terms that would create help describe the organizations on campus. Creating a class where list for clubs will identify core values in a organization that students would be paired with outside businesses. This pairing would serve a dual role interested in helping not only the university students, but also the local businessesdeveloping upon. The students would have students’ interest can lead them into wanting to enter be involved in a club that further implements that passion for a local area business and see what things/ processes/ etckey term, such as “service-based”. Next, we will develop an online form that will list key terms for the company wanted clubs to improve onfill out. With the help of the Center of Student Involvement, we will send these forms out and get feedback from each club. The students general process for each club would then in ask them to select five key terms that describes their groups come back organization to avoid excessively selecting of key-terms, such as 30. After the engineering building results are in, we will go through and design/ figure out what needed to develop a survey that will help link students with clubs they can be doneinterested in. The For example, we will send a survey to students would learn and could put real world experience on their resumeshave them pick 5 key terms they value or have a passion for. After they complete it, and the businesses would benefit because they could make/ save more money from these improvementssurvey will indicate the clubs that correlate to those key terms. One thing that I wanted On Fall 2019, we hope to address was keeping have separated the students OVERLY engaged to stimulate their enthusiasm within key terms by specific days of the universityweek. This co-learning process would There will also be beneficial a developed map online that will have all of the organization on the main campus for the following week. The map will allow students who want to learn if they really want have an easier time finding and connect with organizations. In addition, it will allow club members to be engineersrecruit individuals who have a passionate for their organization. Once the first revamp is finished, I will witness and ask fellow students their intact of the new ‘Up the Orgs’. If there are any complaints multiple times, I will do my duty of making the revamp of ‘Up the Orgs’ better.</span></span></span></span>

Many students feel like it does not have a convenient place to study or do group work. The only public place for student use is a first floor lounge with furniture that is not suited for academic work. Proposal The basement of KL is virtually unused and contains many rooms that are large enough to be a group study space. I created a prototype floor plan using a central room and pictures of furniture found online, including team tables with presenting monitors, group standing desks, and modular couches. Feedback The feedback I received for students was very positive. Most had no suggestions for changes besides minor tweaks to the furniture and requests for many outlets to be installed. Moving forward, I will be presenting to faculty and facilities managment to hear their feedback and to find out what the next steps would be to move this proposal forward. == '''Proposal #2: Crossing CAP Courses''' == === '''Problem Statement'''<br/> === '''At the University of Dayton , all students are required to take 10 CAP courses, which stands for the Common Academic Program. This requires students to take courses in humanties such as philosophy, english, history, etc. One issue that is brought up is that students opt for the easiest classes and ones that best fit their schedule instead of ones they are interested in. ''' === Proposal === '''Instead of having the 10 CAP courses, have the CAP courses be more focused on engineering themes, so they engineers will be more interested and represented in humanties. This would also allow for a better understanding of engineering in both theory and in the workplace, thus further preparing them upon graduation.''' '''After surveying engineering students, many students still wanted the CAP courses to not focus on engineering topics, but they still wanted more from their courses. Many of them suggested ideas such as allowing for those classes to be replaced by getting minors in other fields such as Computer Science, Business, etc. ''' == '''Proposal #3: Developing a Resouce for Locating Vacant Rooms'''''' ''' == '''Problem Statements and RoadBlocks''' #Students want study spaces avaible in KL for collaborative working in the evening/weekends#Size and Layout of KL is rather static. Administration is already working hard to optimize space. #There is little space to rearrage the layout of the building# TAs tend to reserve larger rooms for office hours, which is not always necessary# Student Prioritieshave no way to reserve study space unless it is for club events#Students cannot see which rooms are unoccupied #Adding/Renovating collaborative spaces in KL may not be possible because there is already overcrowding. Labs and Offices are at capasity '''Potential Solution''' #Create a universal systems for students to check which rooms are available to use outside of the class hours.# Optimize use of reserved space by using smaller rooms for office hours or combining multiple TAs into one room for various office hours '''Plan of Action''' #Adapt the layout of the Library's System to KL to view which rooms are available.#Create an applciation to show a map and highlight the free rooms in KL, posting when they are help for classes/meetings.#Speak with the Dean to optimize spaces for TA's. Propose alternative spaces that are smaller or larger spaces that are condensed '''Other Information''' #Roesh Library has a room reservation tool on their website with a listing of available study rooms and team rooms and the abiliry to reserve them for up to a 3 hour window == '''Proposal #4: Establishing a Living Learning Community'''<br/> == '''The University of Dayton offers a variety of Integrated Learning Living Communities(ILLC) where first year students are able to live together based upon shared interests and passions. The proposal is to establish an ILLC for Engineering and Innovation that would allow first year Engineering students the abiltiy to live together and begin practicing essential networking and problem solving skills that will help them develop into future successful engingeers and problem solvers''' = <span style="font-size: smaller;">Related Links</span> = [http://universityinnovation.org/wiki/University_of_Dayton '<i><b>University of Dayton'</b></i>]
