It鈥檚 no secret CU will look much different this year, and we want your help to recreate campus life!
The College of Arts and Sciences Support of Education Through Technology (ASSETT)听has teamed up with 精品SM在线影片鈥檚 Innovation and Entrepreneurship Initiative to bring together three student interns to create a campus connection design challenge for the CU community.
Submit your ideas for a more connected campus, make your voice heard, be part of the solution, and have the chance to win up to $200 in gift cards and funding to implement your idea in the fall.
What is the Sko Together Challenge?
The Sko Together Challenge is a student-led challenge that invites 精品SM在线影片 undergraduate students to imagine ways that we can have a connected campus community experience no matter how we are living, learning, and working through a pandemic. The driving question of this initiative is: How might we creatively use our resources to support meaningful connections within our campus community while physically distancing? In other words: What does a socially distanced, yet socially connected, solution look like? This challenge is designed for students, by students.听
How will the Challenge Work?
The Sko Together Challenge will follow the general structure of a design challenge 鈥撎齰irtually, over Zoom. It will take place over the course of one week: July 26th-August 2nd. The challenge will begin with the Inspiration Phase where participants will discuss the problem. In the Ideation Phase, groups will brainstorm ideas. Groups鈥� final submissions will present their ideas in the format of their choice. The Sko Together Challenge Team will be available throughout each phase of the challenge to act as facilitators. As this challenge is designed and executed by students, it will also be judged by fellow undergraduate students.
What will a winning idea look like?
A winning idea is one that answers the challenge鈥檚 question. We know that鈥檚 vague, and that鈥檚 on purpose! We want to leave the submission guidelines as open as possible so that your creativity can really show. There are no regulations on your final submission format. It can be a video, a PowerPoint, an infographic, a live presentation 鈥� anything you can think of! No restrictions, no rules. One thing we do ask is to make sure your idea S.O.A.R.s: that it is Sustainable, Original, Achievable, and Realistic. Overall, creativity and originality is encouraged at all stages of the Sko Together Challenge! We have a diverse set of minds at CU and it鈥檚 time to show it.
What can I win?
The 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place teams will be awarded gift cards, along with funding to make their idea a reality. Teams will receive support from a campus implementation mentor and a personal meeting with Career Services to make sure this awesome experience looks great on their resume!
