Yechan Kim, UCD, 6 badges Sidi Diawo, UofM, 6 badges Anthony Dagher, UCD, 5 badges Marilyn Ho, IUPUI, 5 badges and Anna Osborne, UCD, 5 badges. The Urban STEM Collaboratory is delighted to recognize those students from each campus that earned the most badges during the 2019-2020 academic year:
“With the pandemic, suffice it to say that face-to-face engagement has some new constraints therefore, student engagement and community building through innovative online tools, such as those offered by the CN, have never been more relevant.” “We see these engagement indicators increasing with students and faculty utilizing CN tools as we enter a ‘new normal’ for learning and student engagement in the era of COVID-19,” stated David Russomanno, Dean of the School of Engineering and Technology at IUPUI. Participants in the program, Urban STEM Scholars, participate in a variety of activities, including summer bridge programs and an academic social networking. Of particular note, 32 students earned the Learning Continuity badge through sharing helpful online learning and teaching tips in the face of the coronavirus pandemic. With a 23-year track record of success behind us, as well as national recognition, we look forward to. In addition to the campus competition, during the first academic year of the program, 104 STEM Collaboratory Participant badges were awarded. UYRS was born out of the highly successful Urban Youth Racing School, established in Philadelphia in 1998 by Anthony Martin. However, if the competition criteria was modified to be based on the average number of reflections, post ratings, or Anar Seeds per student, the UofM would have been the undisputable winner. In short, each campus distinguished itself in student engagement via the CN. UCD placed second with 7.7 posts/student. Based on the average number of posts created by each student scholar, IUPUI won the campus competition with an average of 8.2 posts/student. In the 2019-2020 academic year, a total of 508 posts were created by students in the Urban STEM Collaboratory Network on CN. The CN’s Anar Seeds engine automatically tracks users’ participation, allowing the program to assess members’ engagement, as well as organize cross-campus activities, including competitions. Scholars also document their STEM experiences on their lifelong CN ePortfolio to earn program badges certifying various activities and accomplishments, such as Research Scholar, Diversity Scholar, Industry Intern, STEM Tutor, Peer Led Team Leader, and several other badges.
Student scholars share aspects of their academic life, challenges, interests, and learning resources with each other through a posting feature via CN. This project investigates and implements mechanisms for supporting a diverse cohort of students in an urban context in their development of a STEM identity.ĬourseNetworking (CN), an academic social networking platform developed by members of the IUPUI CyberLab, has been adopted by the Urban STEM Collaboratory to connect student scholars within and across the three campuses. RESULTS: The campaign was so succesfull that Urban Stems reached their maximum delivery capacity during the run of the Out of Home campaign.The Urban STEM Collaboratory is a NSF-supported collaborative project led by the University of Memphis (UofM), the University of Colorado at Denver (UCD), and Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) that provides scholarships and a variety of academic support to financially disadvantaged student scholars pursuing baccalaureate degrees in engineering or mathematics. TACTICS: Strategic placement of transit media designed to reach commuters at multiple toucpoints, along with multiple vibrant and colorful creatives that helped reinforce impressions. By utilizing transit shelters, rail stations and buses in the Philadelphia and Washington, DC markets, the transit media reached that niche urban, pedestrian-commuter market UrbanStems was trying to capture. STRATEGY: The strategy involved reaching their urban audience within delivery zones and promoting their brand’s services. Their target audience was commuting business professionals who are strapped for time. When they wanted to raise brand awareness in key new markets they turned to EMC for an Out of Home media plan that would integrate with their other media. Urban Stems provides consumers with a service to deliver sustainably sourced flowers in urban areas in very quick time frames.
