Coming back to the UCSC campus as a living lab to make a few specific points about sustainability implementation. An elaborate network of offices, labs and centers with a central Sustainbility office is set up. Components and nodes include Natural and lagoon reserves, gardens, agroecology, greenhouse arboretum, incubators and coordinators with spaces for people of Color, and such. Courses and minors in sustainability are linked to the lab to ensure experiential learning with administration’s commitments and engagement. Incubators train students and teams on multi- and trans-disciplinary supports via courses, mentorship’s, facilities, equipment and so on. Coordinators ensure communications within and without the campus. The Living Lab, Incubators and Coordinators are considered the key components of the Campus Living Lab or CLL network. Each one plays multiple roles to ensure success of learning and implementation in the phase space of theory to practice and reductionism to holism as discussed in the previous podcast. Internships and entrepreneurial learnings are key steps towards practical and holistic education and training. Skills needed before entering the program are mapped for the participants and the facilitators - safety, project feasibility evaluation, technical and organisational skills, self-learning abilities, problem-solving aptitudes, leaderships, interpersonal skills and so on. Learner preparation and exposure to experiential learning are found to be critical. Curricular gaps in complex skills must be addressed since experiential learning literature doesn’t address the gaps fully. Not surprisingly, institutional support is quintessential for CLL to succeed in its purpose, function, and for with reliability, validity and workability. Funding is an integral part of this institutional support. Professionalism has to be taught by leading with example from the institution. #sustainability #campus #netzero #climatechange #sustainabilityeducation #renewableenergy #resilience #highereducation #decarbonization #climate https://lnkd.in/d7HRTaWE

During the convening, the following initiatives and accomplishments will be shared to highlight how federal investments from the administration have been leveraged to positively impact youth, adult career seekers, businesses, and the state’s overall tech ecosystem: → $13.4M Good Jobs Challenge grant application process which led to the creation of the First State Tech Partnership. → Design of three new workforce programs including the launch of the Yes, We Tech! paid summer internship program for high school students. → Creation of five tech ecosystem committees and an annual tech ecosystem conference. → Launch of the American Dream Academy in Delaware as a statewide upskilling initiative. → Participation on the PROPEL–The National Center for Precision Medicine steering committee to co-lead the development of the Workforce Center for Precision Medicine application for EDA tech hubs funding. The Council also intends to apply for Digital Equity funding originating from the federal Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act via the Delaware Broadband Office.
