T/MC Case Study
As a graduate student at Dominican University, I had the opportunity to study Tutor/Mentor Connections in light of the impact of the network that the organization built of tutoring and mentoring organizations utilizing the internet. The course, Community Informatics, focuses on the positive impact that information technologies can have. Tutor/Mentor Connections demonstrates this through the useful information sources linked into the online library, the discussion forums, and more. Please read…See More
"After attending (part) of the conference and participating in the SNA discussion, I am really interested in using the InFlow maps for the students. I also just read the most recent article that Dan posted about the positive correlation between…"
"Dan,
I really enjoyed going and wish I would have had time to attend more of the sessions. I think the people that came to our section seemed really interested in what we were presenting.
Hopefully we are able to find more volunteers to help us,…"
"Dan,
I added two slides. Let me know if you think they are helpful.
I will be there about 8:45 tomorrow to register and hear the first speaker. I am looking forward to sharing what we've been working on.
I will not be able to stay beyond the…"
"Dan,
I looked at both the Handout and the Powerpoint Presentation. I can add the images that we have worked on, and maybe attach a data file to show as an example (let me know what you think). I don't have these with me because I am at work,…"
"Dan and Anne,
For the presentation next Friday, let's put together an outline on Ning. I realize that the total time slot is 70 minutes, but from the description I understand that we will be talking about more than simply the SNA initiative,…"
"Anne and Dan,
I went in this morning to work on the project and found out some varying things. I had trouble hiding nodes that did not attend a conference, I'm not sure why, so I reduced the node file (and saved it separately) for the one…"
"Anne,
This seems like we are on track. I think option 1 sounds like a good way to go for the conference in May. I agree that mapping organizations and not individuals will be better for our immediate purposes, but don't think that if someone…"
"That would be great. ~Katie"
"Anne,
I wont be able to make it in on Monday, but post any progress. I won't be able to get in for at least a week.. I think maybe Tues. the 20th. If there is any way to contribute from home... like working on the excel files, let me know and…"
"Dan,
That sounds like it will work really well. Mapping each conference might also demonstrate an increase in connectivity from year to year, it will be interesting to see.
This week I wont be able to make it in, but next week I should have time…"
"That's a really interesting article. We could have done the same thing with our group where we go step by step to show how the network is forming. That helps to add some way to analyze the results. Our results are limited because I know I was…"
"Ok guys, so I spent several hours at Cabrini Connections tonight, and developed three maps.
The first two maps that I made examined the relationships between people within our project group. Rather than doing before and after the training, I chose…"

- Katie,
Thank you for sending email to friends and others at Dominican University. I've been contacted by two students and one will be participating in the inFlow training tomorrow. This is the type of outreach networking that I hope everyone in this ning group does on a regular basis.

- Hi Katie,
I encourage you to browse the groups on this site and visit the OHATS, GIS, and technology groups where you can read about ways we're using information systems to connect people with each other.
Then, also visit the Links Library on the T/MC Site. There is an animated overview of the information in the library, and also an animated strategy map.
You also should browse the wikis that we've created.
My hope is that you'll build your own understanding of this maze, and how it is a resource for people throughout the Chicago region and the world. As you understand it, you'll be able to help in specific areas, but more importantly, you'll be able to communicate back to others at the University and among its alumni who might get involved based on your understanding.
