Holiday Season Harvests: e.engagement, dmsc govchal and tsu 2.0: p.20 pathways

TSU 2.0: P.20 Pathways proposal is almost complete, ready for submission to TBR Access and Diversity Division. This proposal details build-out of digital university press model to facilitate individual, institutional and community portfolios of validated media (text, audio, video, image) and service-based "sweat" equity. Teaching to learn is the MO here and the only sure-fire way to guarantee knowledge transfer and sustainability.

The Olde Thought Coach (OTC) will be journeying west to assist DSMC's Steve Holt judge marketing plans for GovChal created by University of Tennessee at Martin's marketing service learning classes. Two classes will present student-created marketing plans for GovChal 4.0 Spring 2010. This is the real deal: inter-institutional, intra-state collaboration in social enterprise. After all, education is the business plan.

TSU's Engaged Technology Institute (ETI) is nearing the completion of its second semester and all signs point to a fantastic set of outcomes. This data set will create the Institute's baseline and support build-out of the afore-mentioned Tennessee Board of Regents Access and Diversity grant, "TSU 2.0: P.20 Pathways."

TSUVa ETI collaboration is also closing in on its undergraduate research project. More on that later.

Sandbox Network's e.engagement, a professional development collaboration between Tennessee State University and Nashville State Community College is ready for Phase 3.0 after a strong developmental semester. Again, more on that and you can follow at http://www.eengagement.org/wordpress/
