<li>If students could have a special zone on campus were an abundance and immediate access to tools for diagramming and mapping out future plans, students could greatly strengthen their powers of visual observation and display in a form that could also relay back to others who are intrigued by what they see in the ideas. This will also emphasize the importance of scaling products or ideas into the right size category and seeing design flaws first hand before the flaw becomes an implication on a potentially revolutionary new innovation. Structural analysis will also result from seeing an idea transformed into a 3D model as if it actually exists already as a prototype.</li>

=== Tactic #2: Have a Workshop that Introduces Students to New and Upcoming Platforms in Technology and Design by Having Corporate Leaders Discuss and Display Upcoming Modern Innovations, While also Connecting Them with a Relative Project Framework and Potential Sponsors. ===

<li>If students could be immersed with realities of innovation in relation to how our modern world is advancing, they could better understand the potential they have as future leaders and entrepreneurs alongside seeing firsthand what’s upcoming and how drastically these innovations can shape our future from the corporations point of view. Once students have the picture in their mind of the invention, they will think about what this will do for them in their everyday lives. Having a power figure in business or industry come and and talk ill give students the “once in a lifetime” experience feeling, they will feel as they have been given the gift of special knowledge and gain a sense of an entrepreneurial “destiny”. An ideal setting for this workshop would be an area on campus that already drives entrepreneurship and has constant student activity, such as the Idea Shop or the Stuart School of Business. If the students are left with a framework, they can better prioritize all the individual efforts involved with a project and set benchmarks to ensure they stay on top of what needs to ba accomplished in the cmoing months or years. With the tools to build bigger and better ideas in front of them, a student who has easy access to using them will realize the major opportunity right at hand. The sponsor will also be looked up to as a role model for the students, showing students that even ideas forming from the most far-out dreams are in reality not far from becoming something much greater.</li>
