As part of the dissemination actions proposed by the partners selected during FIWARE’s third call for new partners, the project was going to be actively introduced at various Campus Party events between 2013 and 2014. Periodic reports have been published after these events. More specifically – and also depending on the own Campus Party dates: • The first report was delivered in October 2013, about the Campus Party Europe in London (held during September 2013). • The second report was delivered at the end of February 2014, including the project’s activities during the Campus Party Brazil in Sao Paulo (held between January and February 2014) • This final one, partially due to the postponement of Campus Party Europe to 2015 (after the project’s lifespan) and partially to the own interest of the FIWARE project in deploying and properly promoting the Mexican node of the FIWARE Lab, includes all the activities that took place in the Campus Party Mexico (CPMX5) in Zapopan, state of Jalisco, by the end of June 2014.
  • What Are Connecticut College Alumni Doing Five Years After Graduation? a Study of the Class of 2013

    What Are Connecticut College Alumni Doing Five Years After Graduation? a Study of the Class of 2013

    What Are Connecticut College Alumni Doing Five Years after Graduation? A Study of the Class of 2013 Wesley M. Morris ’20 and John D. Nugent Office of Institutional Research and Planning July 2018 SUMMARY We found reliable information about the employment and graduate school activities of about 87% of the Class of 2013. Five years after graduating from Connecticut College, about 96% of those for whom we found information were employed, in graduate school, or recent graduates of a degree program. Our students follow a variety of post-undergraduate pathways into jobs, fellowships, internships, degree programs, and non-degree coursework, and nearly half of the Class of 2013 has obtained some form of additional education. OVERVIEW Colleges and universities are now routinely expected to collect and report “outcomes” data on their graduates, primarily on employment, salaries, and graduate and professional school attendance.1 Collecting accurate data on a large portion of a graduated class is tricky, and there is currently no consensus on the best time or method for collecting the data. The National Association of Colleges and Employers has developed a voluntary “first destination” survey that they suggest administering six months following graduation,2 although that timeframe seems primarily aimed at answering the question of how many college graduates quickly secure employment and thus the ability to begin paying off student loans. While important, this is not the only outcome we should be interested in, particularly as an institution offering a liberal arts education, the fruits of which may take years to fully appear. Thus, a longer-term view that looks at graduates’ activities one or more years after graduation has been the approach taken by Connecticut College in our one-year-out and five-year-out studies.
  • Civic Engagement Study

    Civic Engagement Study

    Civic Engagement at Skidmore A Survey of Students, Faculty, and Community Organizations Spring 2005 In the Fall of 2004, sociology professor David Karp and the students1 of Sociology 226 “Social Research Design” conducted a study of civic engagement at Skidmore College. Here we summarize our major findings. Civic Engagement at Skidmore College The president of Skidmore College is a member of Campus Compact, “a national coalition of more than 900 college and university presidents committed to the civic purposes of higher education. To support this civic mission, Campus Compact promotes community service that develops students' citizenship skills and values, encourages partnerships between campuses and communities, and assists faculty who seek to integrate public and community engagement into their teaching and research.” The new strategic plan for Skidmore, entitled “Engaged Liberal Learning: The Plan for Skidmore College: 2005-2015,” gives particular attention to civic engagement: “We will prepare every Skidmore student to make the choices required of an informed, responsible citizen at home and in the world.” Recently, the College received a grant from the Mellon Foundation to develop civic engagement as part of a larger effort to create “a more engaging and guided learning environment.” We define civic engagement as a multidimensional construct that includes the following: Volunteering: Student participation in community service that is not course-related. Service Learning: Experiential learning that links community service and academic coursework. Community Based Research: Research that involves students, faculty and community partners with the goal of solving community problems. SENCER: Science Education for New Civic Engagements and Responsibilities. Interdisciplinary, problem-based courses that apply scientific investigation to contemporary problem solving, i.e., a course of AIDS.

    STEM ACTIVE LEARNING VIGNETTE SERIES Turning the TIDES HOW WRIGHT STATE AND THE UNIVERSITY OF DAYTON ARE TRANSFORMING TEACHING AND LEARNING FOR UNDERREPRESENTED STUDENTS By Bilal Taylor, Senior Consultant, Equal Measure 3APRIL 2018 The Investment Since beginning active grantmaking in 2008, the Leona M. and Harry B. Helmsley Charitable Trust has committed more than $1.5 billion dollars to nonprofits and other mission-aligned organizations in the United States and around the world. Although no longer a focus for the Trust, from 2008-2016 the Trust’s postsecondary education grantmaking focused on increasing the number of college graduates in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) fields — particularly female students and students of color. INTRODUCTION The Trust’s postsecondary grantmaking portfolio supported networks of higher education institutions committed to improving instructional practices, primarily for gateway STEM courses, and creating incentives to adopt model policies, practices, and systems that can help improve student retention and completion. Each network adopted one or more “active learning strategies,” evidence-based teaching and learning approaches that can improve students’ performance in STEM. While the Helmsley Charitable Trust’s investment has concluded, most of the networks continue to move forward with implementing these strategies. The Evaluation As the STEM Active Learning Networks evaluation and learning partner, Equal Measure is tracking the impact of the Helmsley Charitable Trust’s postsecondary grantmaking on faculty, departmental, and institutional change across networks. Since 2014, Equal Measure has examined the conditions that support progress at the institution, department, and classroom levels toward network goals. Using qualitative methods, we have documented the results of network efforts, including emerging outcomes at the institution, department, and educator levels.

    OBSERVER: Copernicus Relays bringing space closer to people – the case of Argentina 1 / 7 Enthusiasm, entrepreneurship & space are in Space Latam’s focus. Credit: Space Latam It is indisputable that international cooperation is an essential condition for reaching global wellbeing objectives such as the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). International cooperation is also of the utmost importance to the Copernicus programme. With the network of Copernicus free and open data users spanning the globe, the programme is an important contributor to SDGs and economies worldwide. Space Latam, an Argentinian representative of the Copernicus Relays, is an excellent example of how the global community benefits from Copernicus and its networks. As part of the Space Strategy for Europe, the European Commission established a network of Copernicus ambassadors: the Copernicus Relays. These act as local champions, coordinating and promoting activities related to the Copernicus programme, bringing benefits and opportunities for 2 / 7 people, businesses, start-ups, researchers and governments. Space Latam, the Copernicus Relay in Argentina, was one of the earliest organisations to enter the Copernicus Relay network. The organisation submitted their application to join the network in 2016, just months after the official launch of the Copernicus Relay and Copernicus Academy networks in Brussels. When applying, José Bosleman Medina, the Director of the Argentinian Copernicus Relay- to-be, modestly mentioned that Space Latam people are volunteers with almost no budget available to finance their activities, but reassured the reviewers that he had a fantastic, hard-working team with great potential, energy and network. Space Latam far exceeded expectations and now has a large team of young experts who provide support to Argentinian start-ups and SMEs in the space sector through mentoring, hackathons, workshops and other initiatives.
