The document discusses surveys from 2010 and 2011 on the use of social media in higher education. The surveys found that the majority of educators are aware of social media platforms like Facebook, YouTube, and LinkedIn. Many educators use these platforms to communicate with peers and students, watch educational videos, and read blogs. However, social media use varies by discipline, with those in humanities and social sciences using it most. The document also suggests models from information systems research that could help evaluate how well social media "fits" different educational tasks.

The Social Shift Fund uses design thinking tools and a multi-step program to tackle social issues in a sustainable way. The program begins by understanding the problem through natural language analysis and interviews. Personas are then created to represent subjects. Ideas are generated through online challenges and hackathons. The most promising ideas are developed in detail and adapted for local contexts with expert input. Projects then receive support and funding for experimentation and implementation with a test-and-learn approach. Progress is tracked through quarterly reports to measure the fund's social impact.

Writing a successful grant proposal and detailed budgetMikeEly930
Writing a successful grant proposal and
detailed budget
In order for the grant selection committee to fully understand the nature of your project, and its
budgetary implications, we ask that you reference the following guide. Good luck!
Writing the Proposal:
Each submitted proposal should include the following:
1. Need Statement: Use the following questions to guide the creation of your statement of need.
• What is the need for the project? Is it a serious problem or issue, or a lack of a needed service?
• What are the facts and the sources that back up the need for your project?
• Who will benefit from the project and how? Define the audience by age, gender, location,
ethnic background, country of origin, or a combination of these factors.
Considering the answers to the above questions, you can begin to craft the statement of need.
Remember that your final statement of need will:
• describe the status quo that exists before the solution to the problem
• target a population group(s) and a geographic location
• present the solution to the problem
• describe the benefits to the target audience(s) and possibly to society at large.
2. Mission Statement: A mission statement is a philosophical statement about the student,
University, or faculty development that your project addresses. It should include:
• Why is there an immediate need for action toward your goal?
• What is the anticipation of future accomplishment?
• When fulfilled, what is the meaning for Students, the University community or your
professional development?
3. Goals: The goal is the final impact or outcome that you wish to bring about using the Dean’s
grant. It should following the S.M.A.R.T. principles for goal writing:
• (S)pecific
• (M)easurable
• (A)ttainable
• (R)ealistic

Writing the Detailed Budget:
The detailed budget for your proposal should be clear, well organized and easy to understand. Consider
using a spreadsheet with outlined columns and heading that outline:
• Budget Category
• Requested Funds
• Outside Contributions
• Project Total
Direct Costs
Direct costs for your grant are perhaps the most important component in your grant’s budget. They
represent the funds you are seeking from the funding source. The costs described below are considered
direct costs:
Personnel: Show the breakdown of hours and weeks. Such as: $10.00 per hour X 40 hours per week X
52 weeks = $20,800.
Travel: Make sure to provide clear formulas and documentation for why travel is necessary. Include the
cost for a plane ticket, the cost of a hotel per night and the number of nights you will be staying, and a
food allowance. Be sure and use realistic but conservative figures and avoid using round numbers, such
as use $1,280 instead of $1,000.
Equipment: To help understand equipment costs, documentation of the program need for the
equipment. Equipment costs shoul ...

1. БЛАГОТВОРИТЕЛЬНАЯ АКЦИЯ «УЛЫБКА РЕБЕНКА – ЭТО СЧАСТЬЕ!»
Мы любим улыбаться сами, и любим, когда улыбаются наши дети. Дороже их счастливых лиц нет ничего на
свете. Глядя на улыбки детей, каждый взрослый заряжается самыми радостными эмоциями. Не это ли есть
счастье, когда ты видишь насколько искренне и трогательны эти улыбки.
Но среди нас, есть те дети, которым не суждено улыбаться так часто. В силу разных причин. Многие из таких
детей живут в домам-интернатах и приютах, и зачастую такие учреждения находятся в отдаленных районах.
Так, например в Сулюктинской (вспомогательной школе-интернат для умственно-отсталых детей (Баткенская
область) обучаются дети от 5 до 16 лет, всего 108 детей. Из них сироты-2, полусироты-16, соц.сироты-49,
малообеспеченные-28, инвалиды-8, опекуны-2. Эти детки нуждаются в нашей с вами помощи.
Представительство IREX в Кыргызской Республике, ACCELS и ОФ «Ассоциация выпускников
программ за развитие страны» организуют благотворительную акцию по сбору средств для помощи детям
из Сулюктинской школы-интернат. В рамках акции состоится благотворительный вечер в стиле
«Латиноамериканских и бальных танцев», в программе которого будут танцевальные номера (сальса,
бачата, танго, вальс, выступления профессионалов и мастер-классы для зрителей и т.д.).
Мы приглашаем всех желающих прийти на вечер и присоединиться к благотворительной акции «Улыбка
ребенка – это счастье». Все собранные средства в ходе акции будут направлены в помощь детям
Сулюктинской вспомогательной школы-интернат для умственно-отсталых детей.
Нас, взрослых, больше, и мы - сильные и умные, а значит, это в наших силах – подарить частичку тепла и
радости таким деткам. Очень важно, чтобы в детстве ребенок получал много-много любви, чтобы он это
чувствовал, что его все любят. Ведь совершенно неверно делить детей на "своих" и "чужих". Это не
правильно, потому что эти дети не виноваты в том, что им не повезло родиться в семье, где они не были
окружены заботой и любовью. Нет чужой беды и нет чужих детей в любой стране.
Итак, мы ждем вас на концерте.
