'''Strategy 1 - Resource Access Kiosk''' <span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(29, 33, 38); background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">During the interview I conducted one of the major problems that came forth was that with the several resources available on campus, students did not know how to access them or what was the best suited resource for the problem they were facing.  <span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(29, 33, 38); background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(29, 33, 38); background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">To this issue the solution that we came taught was apt, was that we would have a digital kiosk for students in the various buildings on campus that would be able to let them view the events happening on that particular day as well as see the resources on campus, such as, Math Assistance Center, Speaker’s Lab, Writing Center, Bepko Learning Center that students could use for academic mentoring and success coaching. These kiosks would should the location of these resources as well as give directions on how to get to the place from your current location.  <span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(29, 33, 38); background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(29, 33, 38); background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">This would be useful as students would be able to easily see what kind of a resource they would like to access and what would be the best fit for them. This would also allow the students to see what events are happening on campus and enable an increased chance of participation.  <span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(29, 33, 38); background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(29, 33, 38); background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Initial Strategies: *<span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(29, 33, 38); background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Design the software with all necessary information *<span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(29, 33, 38); background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Talk to students, faculty and get feedback *<span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(29, 33, 38); background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Look for suitable places to place kiosks to get maximum engagement<div> </div>'''Strategy 2 - Develop New Connections with Student Groups''' <span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(29, 33, 38); background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Our workshops have mixed turnout for students. Our most successful workshops have been in collaboration with already existing student groups. Therefore, we reached out to several different communities to offer individualized workshops to increase exposure for design thinking. The first community we developed a relationship with was the Honors College.We shall continue to reach out and develop program for the following communities. *Graduate Students*Postdocs*Computer Science Club*Visual Communication and Design '''Strategy 3 - Connect students to design spaces at IUPUI. '''

<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(102, 102, 102); background-color: transparent; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">In the past year, a design space named the Idea Garden opened on campus. Even with this new addition students are still largely disconnected from the design spaces throughout campus. Many of them have no idea they exist and others have never visited one. Breaking down the barriers to these spaces can help students connect with an innovation mindset.

<li>Connect with the faculty in control of the design spaces.</li>

<li>Explore and create workshops that train students with the technologies involved in the design space.</li>

<li>Build awareness of these spaces for students and connect them to these workshops.</li>

</ul>

'''Strategy 4 - Sharing the Knowledge From Upperclassmen to Their Younger Peers'''

<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(29, 33, 38); background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Students at IUPUI that have successfully gone through a couple years in their program are the best resource to overcome these challenges for younger students going through it. This project aims to connect those two groups of people in a meaningful way to allow the passing of knowledge down to the younger students. It would be a mobile application that you would sign in with your university ID and it would provide message boards and chat areas of people in similar fields at the school.
