<span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="background-color:#40e0d0;"></span>This strategy consists in creating monthly challenges in common areas of all the students at university so people of different majors compete together to complete I&E challenges. </span></span>
<span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"></span></span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium;">Students will have the chance to participate in an innovation and entrepreneurship challenge once a month to gain a prize. Each challenge will be about different subjects that involve this concepts, and students from different majors will have to conform teams in order to complete them.</span>
<span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium;"></span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium;">Challenges can last 10 minutes or a week and prices will vary depending on that. </span>
<span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium;">The monthly challenges will help students in different aspects:</span>
#<span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium;"></span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium;">They will work in interdisciplinary groups. This will let students meet new people and work in future ideas that are not related in what they are used to do.</span>
#<span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium;"> Students will have to test their abbility to listen and be patience on what others are proposing. This will let them gain more tools to use in their everyday. </span>
#<span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"></span>Challenges will make the I&E ecosystem grow because it'll gain more popularity in the student community.</span>
<span style="font-size: medium;"></span>
<span style="font-size: medium;">Tactic #1: Validate the idea.</span>
<font size="3">Before doing anything, it'll be better to start presenting the idea to faculty members and people from iCubo to get validation and feedback.</font>
<font size="3"></font><span style="font-size: medium;">Tactic #2: Test the idea.</span>
<span style="font-size: medium;">The second step will be testing the idea in a common area to see if students get interested in participate on the challenge and to get feedback from them. </span>
<span style="font-size: medium;"></span><span style="font-size: medium;">Tactic #3: Paperwork</span>
<span style="font-size: medium;"></span><span style="font-size: medium;">Get the permission and support from the people who will help developing the project. Also, getting the funds or sponsorship to pay for the prices when need it. </span>
<span style="font-size: medium;">Tactic #4: Ready to go!</span>
<font size="3">Make the first activity for students in an innovative and creative way!</font>
= '''Strategy #3: Step by Step Innovation Program'''
The strategy consists in creating a “step by step” program in which students can acquire tools for detecting problems that affect our society and have new ideas for solving them.
This program will be divided on monthly sessions. Each month we will develop different contingent issues. We will have two meetings per month. Students will be divided in groups.
The first activity is talking about our educational problems. This activity had 2 parts:
*First: write about problems that you can see.
*Second: share what you wrote.
First part: We gave the chance to students from all the campus to meet us at Espacio I. We bought some candies for motivating them. The idea was to create a new instance in which students can talk each other and present what problems they see in our campus that can have a direct or indirect impact in our society.
We gave them a paper and asked them to write problems at our campus that might have impact in our city, so they can express calmly their vision about our problems.
Second part: After they wrote in the paper, we gave them the chance to speak and talk about the problem they think we have at the campus. Here is when students started talking each other and exchanging point of views of why this problems exist. Few students proposed well presented problems, the others were not able to do it.
Finished this activity we realized that most of students were not able to analyse deeply our educational system. They did not have enough tools to present problems in an appropriate way. Then, we knew that we needed a mentor who can give us that critical vision and empathy tools for being able to be at different positions and know how it feels. So, we decided to improve our program by having experimented mentors in our sessions so they can work with the groups.

Before the big initiation, we need to talk with our managers so we can present them the program and get some feedback so that we can improve it.

We must test our idea and see how students react to this new program.
=
== '''Tactic #3: “Yes, you can”.''' ==
=
<div></div>
We must ask for the adecuated permissions to the people in charge of Espacio I, so we can use that place.

== '''Tactic #4: “We are in!”.''' ==

After all the tactics we can begin to develop our program.
