'''<span style="font-size:larger;">Strategy #1 :“To have a makerspace on campus and encourage students to enhance their critical thinking and problem solving skills.” -Reeth Mohta</span>'''
<div><span style="font-size: larger;">A makerspace is an open do-it-yourself space for people to gather and create. These spaces encourage students to design, build, invent and experiment as they deeply engage in science, engineering and thinking. It empowers students to create, ideate and fabricate their own designs. Makerspace’s will expose students to new opportunities, enhance our critical thinking and problem solving skills, and will provide an opportunity to innovate. It will help students create solutions to real-world problems.</span></div><div><br/><span style="font-size: larger;">Tactic 1: Utilise a place on campus and convert it into a Makerspace.</span></div><div><br/><span style="font-size: larger;">Tactic 2: Form a YoungMakers club on campus which will regularly conduct STEM projects.</span></div><div><br/><span style="font-size: larger;">Tactic 3: Identify and accommodate the Makerspace with all the required resources.</span></div><div><br/><span style="font-size: larger;">Tactic 4: Conduct hands on sessions for required lectures to enhance practical knowledge.</span></div><div><span style="font-size: larger;"></span><br/></div><div><span style="font-size: larger;">Tactic 5: Conduct project exhibitions.

We need to revive these clubs so that they can start organising competitions and workshops for students. Apart from this, we need to identify students from every branch who have good knowledge about their field and can teach other students. They will form the core team of the community. Then we can organise meetups for interested students on selected topics every weekend (say, Saturdays) where students can meet and discuss concepts and ideas. This will lead to greater interaction between students, and creating a conducive environment for innovation. Under this community, we can also have a group of students who work on larger, long-term projects that will help the college. Currently, we rely on third-parties for several software solutions. These groups focused on projects can elect a faculty member who can guide them. To ensure greater participation of students, we will require bus facilities on the weekends. Also, having a space where such sessions can be conducted is essential. Teams involved in cultural activities like art, drama and music can also be involved in this community and have events for students who may want to learn from them. Tactic #1: Talk to heads of existing clubs, see what kind of activities they can organise and find out how they can help - October end Tactic #2: Find out the exceptional students from each branch who can lead the student community - October end Tactic #3: Organise an informal meetup - a mock session of what is to come. Gauge response from students - November Tactic #4: Existing clubs will organise a competition/event - January Tactic #5: Integrate cultural clubs - February Tactic #6: Ask for a space of our own - March <br/>'''Strategy #10:Simplifying the process of bringing ideas to reality - G Sanjana''' Tactic #1 : Step by step procedure for any application process. : Students do not have to run around searching for people and permissions. A flow for application of various patents, approvals and permissions should be present Methods : a) Single form specifying all the requirements b) Non ambiguity in providing information c) Less face to face interactions and more of online interactions Tatic #2: Opportunities available to pitch ideas should be known. Providing information of various presentations , exhibitions happening through social media platforms/ college magazines. Tactic #3: Proper Guidance and mentors information. Supportive and knowledgeable mentors and staff for students <br/>'''Strategy #11: Increasing the number of hands-on sessions - Sagar Shinde''' “Tell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I learn.”– Benjamin Franklin. Nothing beats practical, hands-on learning when it comes to understanding a subject and preparing you for your chosen career. In order to foster innovation there must be an increase in the amount of practical work with specific learning objectives in mind. The hands on sessions can be conducted during regular classes/labs, or else we can have a specific amount of time reserved for them after the regular schedule. Students will be able to solve real world problems and build products based on what they have been taught.Below, the tactics to increase the number of hands-on sessions have been mentioned. Tactic #1:Conducting hackathons on campus in order to solve real life problems and enhance coding skills Tactic #2: Conducting start-up weekends where we will have inspirational talks by entrepreneurs and where students can pitch their ideas and build products for real customers Tactic #3: Implement project based teaching in which students apply all the concepts learnt in the form of projects and work on a project for one full day in a week Tactic #4: Creating Makerspace in the campus where the students can design, prototype and manufacture products.
