Feed Your Brain Final Presentation

Our project aimed to enhance student exposure to diverse subjects by inviting volunteer speakers for presentations. We began scheduling speakers in January, aiming for joint presentations instead of individual ones, and focused on promoting the events through various marketing channels. With a clear timeline and teamwork, the project culminated in a series of presentations covering topics like entrepreneurship, web development, and networking in April. Our collaborative approach and long-term planning were key to executing a successful initiative that benefits students by broadening their educational horizons.

  1. Feed Your BrainFinal Presentation Team Leaders: Adam Remillard & Cheryl Glazer Team Members: Lindsey, Tucker, Samara, & Nancy

  2. Project Summary • Our goal: bring in volunteer speakers • The purpose: expose students to a wider range of subjects and educational opportunities

  3. Project Deliverables • The presentations themselves. We didn’t execute them until April (we still have one more next week) • Each presentation consisted of two speakers and one or more topics • The components of the project were preparatory fieldwork

  4. Project Timeline - January • Scheduling 5-7 speakers to each present individually • We began to schedule our speakers to present sporadically throughout the coming months • We put out a survey to gauge interest in different topics

  5. Project Timeline - February • We learned that it would be optimal to make 3 joint presentations instead of several individual presentations • We spent the entirety of this month determining which pairs of speakers could appropriately present together • Rescheduling them to bring down the number of presentations • We also made it a priority to accommodate any technology/other needs each speaker had

  6. Project Timeline - March • This month was devoted to advertising • We touched base with the Web Marketing group, the Guerilla Marketing group, and the Market Wednesday group • This involved Facebook events, twitter posts, flyers, chalking outside of parking garages and other locations • We also used this month to stay in contact with our speakers • Sending out occasional reminders

  7. Project Timeline - April • This month is devoted exclusively to presentations • Presentation 1: April 2nd at 3:00 – Brad Harris and John Adams speaking on commercialization, entrepreneurship, and makers spaces. • Presentation 2: April 9th at 3:30 – Geo Miller and Mark Jowett speaking on Web Application Development and SQL. • Presentation 3: April 16th at 3:00 – Elliott Glazer and Matthew Thompson speaking on Networking, Leadership, Developing Content, and Real Term Marketing.

  8. Leadership • We determined roles for each group member • Everyone was responsible for something, and no one was responsible for everything. • Each member who recruited a speaker was responsible for correspondence with that speaker regarding technological accommodations, scheduling matters, finalizing topics, and acquiring introductory/biographical information

  9. Teamwork • We collaborated extensively with other groups, specifically those geared towards advertising • We made sure to reach out to other groups to offer support/services to assist them, as they did for us • We also thoroughly encouraged input and cooperation from each team member • Every member who could recruit a speaker was motivated to do so

  10. Long Term Planning • From the very beginning of the semester, we had the future in mind. • We knew what our ultimate goals were, and carefully planned each milestone to make sure that we stayed on track • We reflected on where we were in our overall timeline • We were fortunate enough to notice a glaring opportunity for improvement
