Hello Daniel,
It is nice e-meeting you through tutor/mentor connection and thanks for showing interest on my blog & introduction. I was told by Dan about you and your plan, I would love to help you out! At the moment, I am not sure which way I could assist you with, but feel free to send me an email and we can talk about it!
Thanks,
Minsub
Good Day,
How is everything with you, I picked interest on you after going through your short profile and deemed it necessary to write you immediately. I have something very vital to disclose to you, but I found it difficult to express myself here, since it's a public site.Could you please get back to me on ( pollardjames96@gmail.com ) for the full details.
Have a nice day
Thanks God bless.
Hi Daniel. Saw story today outlining 8 root causes of poverty & violence in Rio. See http://www.rioonwatch.org/?p=37723
View article I posted this week after reading report about state of racial justice in Chicago. http://tutormentor.blogspot.com/2017/08/state-of-racial-justice-in-...
I think people in Rio and other cities could use visualizations the way I do and apply the 4-step strategy I've piloted since 1993 in their own cities. Just needs a leader with the vision to do this....and better resources than I've ever had.
Here's a concept map that I created to show people who are using their own blogs to make sense of the ideas I share. http://tinyurl.com/TM-BlogNet-Map I hope I'll be able to add a link to you and/or your students in the future, and that you'll connect with the ideas of the other people I point to.
This is what's supposed to happen as a result of the outreach I do on different platforms. As you browse this site look at the sub group showing work interns have been doing with me since 2007. https://tutormentorconnection.ning.com/group/cktmc You can find another page pointing to a broader collection of intern work at http://www.tutormentorexchange.net/defining-a-terms/215-interns-at-tmc
My hope is that you and others from different universities will engage individual students, or teams of students, in web quests and research work that parallels what my own interns have been doing. Let the students dig through my sites, and create papers and presentations where they describe a Tutor/Mentor Connection type strategy applied to their own city, with teams from universities, hospitals and/or business serving as leaders. As students do such work it can be shared on forums like this, and in MOOCs and other places that connect people and ideas to each other.
Thanks for joining the Tutor/Mentor Connection on Ning. I started this forum in 2007 before Facebook, LinkedIn and other platforms became dominant. I've kept it going in past few years as a place I could coach interns who work with me in Chicago and as a place others could see a template for their own efforts. Please introduce yourself and follow the links to other sites with more of the information and ideas I've been collecting and sharing online since 1998.
