<p>The Prezi is really good. Just one correction and three additions.</p>
<p>I have added two pages to the Prezi ppt. In the presentation I'd like you to create a "call out" on sections 1, 2 and 6 in which you open one of the links and talk about what's included. I've provided a graphic and text in the ppt.</p>

<p>After the first intern project is completed, the second project will be to visit <a href="http://www.tutormentorexchange.net/definition-of-issues/ideasanimation" target="_blank">this set of page</a>s showing work posted on Prezi and YouTube by past interns and to create a list showing Project Title, ULR, Date Created, and Number of views.

<p><a href="https://prezi.com/lt6msdiwtxf-/tmc-intro/" target="_blank">T/MC Intro</a>. Created June 2012. 1306 views.</p>
<p></p>
<p>The flash animation projects and the ones posted on Ning, don't seem to have counters on them, so we cannot tell how often they have been viewed. </p>
<p></p>
<p>By creating this list we'll a) have a full list of projects which other people can look at, and b) a total number of views created since the project was posted to the Internet. Interns will be able to see impact they are having, even several years after creating their project. If we update this list, and add new projects each year, we'll be able to create a archive that is constantly giving us new information, and providing reasons for past interns to visit, and to retweet projects to friends, family and co workers.</p>

Every few days I want them to create a visualization that describes what they are learning, and how a political leader in a city, or part of a city, might use this information to support the growth of needed social services, like non-school tutor/mentor programs, in high poverty areas, or highly segregated areas, of a city or zone of a city.</p>
<p>Among the considerations will be a) how to motivate leaders in business, philanthropy, media, religion, education, etc. to spend time daily, or weekly, following the same learning path; b) how to motivate these same leaders to invite people into their own networks into the learning path; c) how to sustain this over many years; and d) how this can result in greater flows of needed resources into the neighborhoods where programs are needed, so programs grow and reach more people.</p>
<p></p>
<p>As our intern does this work, I invite others to do the same, thinking of ways leaders in cities all over the world might use this information to bring more people together to understand and build long-term solutions to complex problems.</p>
