Changes

'''1. Look at the entire campusinstitution, regardless of departmental boundaries'''<br><br>An important part of being a University Innovation Fellow is having a vision for the entire campusinstitution, inclusive of all resources and independent of departmental lines and territories. Sometimes these resources are already connected and supportive of one another, but in many instances, Fellows find that they are not. High-functioning ecosystems are highly connected, supportive and inclusive of all resources and stakeholders. Once trained, Fellows tend to be effective at spanning boundaries, bringing everyone together and helping forge a shared vision based on an understanding of the ecosystem. Your command of the ecosystem will help you be an effective champion of change.<br><br>

Traditional relationships in academia between administration, faculty and students are hierarchical. As Feld says, if the hierarchy tries to drive the startup culture, it essentially stifles it. Fellows around the world are creating a network, at the grassroots, which is essential to leading a campus culture shift that is inclusive and encourages creativity, risk-taking and fearlessness. Be mindful of the current culture. These changes don't happen overnight, but rather through your entrepreneurial actions, outreach, events, and student activity that is lifted up, encouraged, promoted and celebrated, regardless of the outcome. Consider the ways a culture shift can begin to happen at your school.<br><br>

Different constituents on campus at your institution might be motivated by different triggers. Take the Maker Movement, for example, which was in the spotlight a few years ago with the first-ever White House Maker Faire, when one hundred and fifty university leaders signed letters to then-President Obama, committing to expand opportunities for making. The maker movement and its collection of DIY individuals represent a population who might develop innovative and new creations and seek marketplaces for their products.<br><br>In a different segment of campusyour school, there may be pockets of activity amongst architects inspired by green building innovations or the Tiny House Movement. Amongst biologists, you may find those studying the field of biomimicry to create novel innovations inspired by nature. Still, in another part of campus, you may have students designing solutions for those living in poverty. Maybe such courses or programs are offering hands-on, project-based experience. Maybe they're offering real-world experience with an external organization.<br><br>

This assignment has 2 deliverables (see below). For this assignment, you'll work with your team on your Landscape Canvas spreadsheet and share the results with your uiguide. Use the visual landscape canvas in the Training Mural, at the top of Session 3, to create an at-a-glance view of your ecosystem for one another and for the stakeholder meeting presentation. But, do not skip the completion of the spreadsheet as you are required to collect detailed information about how many people does this resource serve, is access limited to a specific majoor, and who are the contact people for this asset. You'll also create/update your Campus Overview page on the wiki. These items are required to complete training. Both should be posted in the Training Updates page of the UIF Portal. Instructions are on the [[2020:Training/Submitting Assignments|Submitting Assignments]] page. Deliverable 2 requires that you update your school’s campus page on the UIF wiki (more below).{{note2}} Both deliverables should be submitted as a team (if you are part of a Leadership Circle).

Watch the video to learn how to complete the Landscape Canvas:<br><br> {{#widget:Youtube|id=jgu7ueU_sNk|width=75%}}<br><br>This week you are required to present the Landscape Canvas to your uiguide. Share new insights you gained about the ecosystem, gaps you perceive and strengths you can build upon. Your uiguides will ask you for your initial hypothesis about how you believe those gaps can be addressed. These could be in the form of new learning opportunities - curricular or extracurricular. They can also be in the form of a campaign. You can search through [[:Category:Guides|"How to" guides]] for inspiration from other Fellows. In some instances, you are going to have to think really creativity about *new* solutions custom designed for your campus institution's context. Your mentors will be thinking partners to help uncover resources in your local community, regional strengths and potential partnerships.<br><br>{{Fmbox|image=none| style = border:5px solid dimgrey; background-color:lightgrey;|text={{Fmbox|image=none|text=''{{note2}} You can use this [https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1yokYaqDFzlGKMDB9WdiaAbO7moahyHcy9EseJM9HJJY/copy Landscape Canvas Google Slide presentation deck] as an optional resource when it comes time to present your research to faculty and administration during your Stakeholder Meeting.''}}----*'''Where is my landscape canvas?'''<br>Each campus school has their very own Landscape Canvas template within their campus folder in the Google Drive (find your's [[https2020:Training//drive.google.com/drive/folders/1BrL69LY4a-Pe1Cu4bQ6uaKcDbEH1n2JZ this Google DriveStart Here|here]]).

The Campus Overview page is a page about your school on the Wiki comprised composed of five paragraphs that describe your campus institution's ecosystem. You are required to create or update the page in a specific format, using [[The Innovative and Entrepreneurial University|five parameters we benchmarked]] from a [https://www.eda.gov/pdf/The_Innovative_and_Entrepreneurial_University_Report.pdf U.S. Department of Commerce Report] in 2013. The launch of the wiki coincided with the release of this report, [http://universityinnovationfellows.org/white-house-features-university-innovation-fellows/ with support and recognition from the Obama White House].<br><br>

:*'''Engaging with regional and local economic development efforts:''' The "Spin Out" section of your Landscape Canvas also reveals the extent to which the University is engaging with regional and local economic development efforts. Many campuses institutions also have an economic development office and staff whose responsibility it is to leverage the University's research and development for positive local economic benefit.<br><br>{{Fmbox|image=none| style = border:5px solid dimgrey; background-color:lightgrey;|text=<br>*Submit a link to your completed / updated campus overview Wiki-page by September 2620.
