= Strategy Eight: Promoting Campus in an Online Forum =
<span style="font-size:larger;">When analyzing the online experience at Michigan Tech, it became evident that some students felt disconnected from their classes and student resources on campus. A barrier seemed to had been placed between professors and connecting to other students to get involved on campus. To defeat this barrier, we want to be able to develop a new way students approach online learning. Changing a class and the way the university outreach's to students can take a lot of steps to implement. During this class and outreaching changing process, our team wants to get evidence of how students intereact thought the current online systems and also how students get involved on our campus. Updated 2020</span>
<span style="font-size: larger;">To do this, our team plans on taking four steps: hosting a meeting with interested professors to create a university template for canvas, create a new grading policy so students are actively engaged in their learning and not forgetting stuff after an exam, create one central website for students resources and student organizations, and looking into ways to help support our IT department.</span>
<span style="font-size: larger;">'''Canvas Template: '''During this step we plan to have ten different professors who are willing to change their canvas sit down and draft a template. we believe that this will help students when going from class to class online to have a consistent spot of where information is located at. </span>
'''<span style="font-size:larger;">'''Central Website:</span> '''<span style="font-size:larger;">Next, we plan on taking a poll through the campus, to determine what method students would like to see resources and student organizations spotlighted. This will give us a better understanding of what we need to develop or fix. </span>
<span style="font-size:larger;">'''Grading Restructure: '''In this step we will meet with current professors using the grading system we have identified and get specific research to use in a meeting with willing professors who would like to change their current grading systems. After we have this meeting we hope to have more professors adopt the grading system and get more research. After this we hope to create a university wide grading system. </span>
'''<span style="font-size:larger;">Helping IT:</span> '''<span style="font-size:larger;">Once we are able to deliver the above steps we plan to help IT with everything. We plan to help them achieve some of their goals that they have been currently working on in order to promote us as more of a tech school.</span>
