The document provides guidance on using networking to find summer internship opportunities. It advises students to have a clear target for their networking in terms of the type of role or organization sought. Students should map their existing network, identify ways to expand it, and draft a specific networking plan with targets and timeline. When reaching out, students should introduce themselves briefly, have clear ask, and offer value to the contact. Networking may help lead to internships at consulting boutiques, internal consulting roles, or nonprofit organizations if not larger strategic consulting firms. Planning, preparation, and being able to clearly articulate one's value are keys to effective networking.

VELOCITY PREP | Making the STEM Industry ConnectionLonny Stern
Velocity Prep engages high school students to form consulting companies and complete 160 hours of work in a STEM field with the support of college mentors. During the program, delivered as a 4-week PAID summer internship or as a semester-long capstone for academic credit, students address real-world problems for a client, launch and manage a company, meet with STEM employers, work in teams, and present deliverables in a conference room setting. Velocity Prep was created in 2001 in direct response to industry and education leaders’ desire to see high school students gain relevant work experience and exposure to high-demand STEM careers available in Central Texas. Now, we are seeking to scale in the region and across Texas.
To get high school students ready for the business world, they need access to internships. Most companies target their internships at college students, but to truly get more students invested in a tech career, the industry needs to work with students long before they’ve embarked on a college education.
Internships are a powerful way to provide full immersion in the world of work with responsibility for real, necessary tasks that matter to an employer. They provide the experience that can prepare students to successfully begin a career in their chosen field.
To give that opportunity to more high school students, schools and employers can build upon the 4Ps of internship, as developed by the Creating IT Futures Foundation: project for the student to work on that's both challenging and valued, place for the student to work on the project, personnel who will care about and supervise the intern, and payment, preferably in monetary value, to the students for the work they do.
Employers and schools can collaborate to innovate the internship model so that it works for both the student and the employer. The Creating IT Futures Foundation has developed models for 4 types of internships that employers can implement to create student internships.
First Crowdfunding Platform to Create Jobs for College Students
Internet Webpages Newspaper (IWN) Fund uses the power of crowdfunding to finance 100% Paid Internships for America's college students. IWN Internship Fund is the first of its kind platform dedicated solely to raising funds to hire qualified college students to work at IWN, located in downtown Chicago, IL USA.
Interns Work on Real Projects in Collaborative Workspace
Interns work in a collaborative workspace on real projects being executed (not fake, "mock up" assignments for their portfolio). Projects include publishing, online communities and special events. IWN is located with a 15,000 square foot complex in downtown Chicago's Loop central business district, steps away from State Street, Theatre District, Millennium Park, Block37 shopping center and the legendary Chicago Theatre.
Cloud-Based, Self-Hosted WordPress Crowdfunding Platform
Kickstarter and IndieGoGo are great crowd funding platforms. However, they are not the only online solution for crowd funding. IWN Events manages the Chicago WordPress Meetup Group with over 780 members. IWN Internship Fund chose to utilize a WordPress plugin to create its own crowd funding platform hosted on Rackspace Cloud Sites, one of the USA's top tier cloud hosting providers.
100% Paid Internships 2012 Goal: $100k and 25-50 Paid Internships
IWN Internship Fund is seeking to raise $100k in 2012 to fund between 25-50 paid internship jobs. Each intern will receive a minimum of 120-160 hours fully paid in advance at an average rate of $8.25 per hour over a semester period. Interns are required to have a 3.0 Grade Point Average (GPA) and be currently enrolled or a recent college graduate. All monies raised from crowd funding, minus PayPal fees and employment expenses (payroll, taxes, insurance, etc) are given to the intern. No fees are retained by IWN. Interns receive 100% of the money.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
