<Title>Intern of the Week: Shelby Clarke at UMBC</Title>
<Tagline>Learn more about Shelby's summer experience!</Tagline>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">
    <strong>Shelby Clarke</strong><br>Undergraduate Research Assistant in Marketing and Design at UMBC<br>Major: Visual Arts with Graphic Design Concentration<br><br><strong>Briefly describe your research position including your day-to-day tasks and responsibilities.</strong><br><br>Computing Education for the 21st Century (CE21) is an NSF funded project that strives to create a network of computer science professionals and gather data that will aid in increasing the support of CS education. I work to create web and print material that promotes CE21 and its programs. My coworkers and I analyze data from surveys to determine the needs of CS education – like diversity and greater public interest. We also work together to complete the tasks required for our events, always considering the best way to approach our target audience and to gain their support for CE21.<br><br><strong>What have you enjoyed the most about your position or organization/company and what have you found most challenging?</strong><br><br>In my group of fellow researchers – three computer science students and one chemical engineer – I find that though I am the only visual artist, my internship is an opportunity to learn from all of the experience that this group has to offer. I always feel encouraged to share my own ideas and to create my very best design work. I occasionally find it difficult to complete tasks when I first have to get help or permission from others, or when I don’t have the means to get something done as quickly as I might on my own. However, this has taught me the value of delegating tasks and how to cooperate with my coworkers in order to finish a job.<br><br><strong>What have you gained from your experience that you could not have gained from another summer activity?</strong><br><br>As a visual arts major, any opportunity to use and improve my design skills is another chance for me to grow and learn in my field. Each opportunity is different, and the CE21 project has allowed me to learn more about web design and event management. I have also been able to expand my personal network with Maryland education officials and computer science professionals.<br><br><strong>How do you see your summer work as meaningful? Has it given you a chance to work on issues or with communities that matter to you?</strong><br><br>Although I am not a computer science student, the CE21 project has helped me to reevaluate the condition of education in Maryland high schools. While we address and plan to overcome the inconsistencies in computer science education throughout the state, I can see how this type of project could be replicated in any elective. In particular, I have realized how the arts could greatly benefit from the creation of a network of art educators who are determined to improve curricula and inspire their students. Because of the importance of CS in such a technological world, I am proud to be helping to address and solve the issues that face computing education and those who desire this course of study.<br><br><strong>How has your summer experience shaped the way you think about your power to impact the world?</strong><br><br>Prior to this position, it was tough for me to see myself as a professional or as someone who has sway over the professional world, but I have seen that this is not true. My supervisor, Dr. Susan Martin, has confidence in my abilities as a graphic designer, and the tasks I am assigned help me to constantly test and expand my skill set. Even among my coworkers I can see and value the diversity of thought that comes from being in a group. I am now more confident in my skills as an individual, and I know that though I will always still be learning, I am an artist, I am a designer, and I am a professional.</div>

<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">The Goldman Sachs Interns &amp; Fellows (IFO) Multicultural Junior Fellow, offers internships and visiting student awards to increase participation of U.S. minority groups who are underrepresented in Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History.<br> <br>You should send your résumé to John Hasse (Curator, Culture &amp; Art)/ <a href="mailto:hasse@si.edu">hasse@si.edu</a>) and cc: Omar Eaton-Martinez (<a href="mailto:eatonmo@si.edu">eatonmo@si.edu</a>) if you’re interested in being considered for the following spring opportunity – <strong>Deadline to submit résumé is November 21, 2012:</strong><br> <em><br>Division of Culture and the Arts – Music Collections Inventory and Photography</em><br><br>The junior fellow will advance a project (begun earlier with interns) to research and compile an inventory of music-related collections at the National Museum of American History. These collections are held not only by the Division of Culture and the Arts, but also by the Archives Center, Political History, Armed Forces, Mechanisms, and Home and Community Life. The project is part of a Smithsonian-wide music initiative begun with a Level One Consortia grant, and advocated and encouraged by the Smithsonian Institution’s Undersecretary of Art, History &amp; Culture Richard Kurin. The junior fellow will also work with the curatorial staff to identify selected objects that have not been photographed (except for registrar purposes) and work with the NMAH photographers to get them individually photographed in the Photo Lab. The resulting pictures will be used on the NMAH website and made available to the larger Smithsonian Music initiative, one of whose goals is a website that brings together<br>music-related resources across the Institution. Stipend: $6000.<br> <br>Ideally you should be available to start some time during the month of January 2013.</div>

<Title>Intern of the Week: Uvonne Andoh at UMBC</Title>
<Tagline>Learn more about Uvonne's summer experience!</Tagline>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">
    <strong>Uvonne Andoh </strong><br>Research Assistant in Information Systems Department at University of Maryland, Baltimore County in Baltimore, MD <br>Major(s)/Minor(s): Management of Aging Services/pre-physical therapy <br><br><strong>Briefly describe your research position including your day-to-day tasks and responsibilities.</strong><br>I learn fundamentals of Assistive Technology and get hands-on experience working with older adults. I also learn how to design and build 3D prototypes for a 3D printer to explore the possibility of older adults building their own assistive technologies.<br><br><strong>What have you enjoyed the most about your position and what have you found most challenging?</strong><br>I enjoy learning 3D modeling and how to use a 3D printer, preparing materials for a focus group with older adults on rapid prototyping and helping run a focus group. I also enjoy the assistance from my supervisor and other students and working as a team. What I found most challenging at first was conducting a focus group. I was really nervous and did not know what to expect, but being able to work with Galina Madjaroff, I learned a lot from her on how to conduct a focus group with our targeted population being the older adults. <br><br><strong>What have you gained from your experience that you could not have gained from another summer activity?</strong><br>I gained the advantage of networking, being a leader and being able to see what my day-to-day of working in my field will be like. Not only do I know how to use a 3D printer, I have been able to design my own object and build it as well as teaching others who have no idea about what 3D printing is and offering a little bit of tutoring on how to use 3D printers. <br><br><strong>How do you see your summer work as meaningful? Has it given you a chance to work on issues or with communities that matter to you?</strong><br>I see my summer work as meaningful because it has made me to master my skills giving me the advantage on understanding what I would be doing in the future in my field and also being able to work with others as a team. My internship has given me the chance to visit CharlesTown resident home and conducting a focus group, presenting and explaining the research I have helped with here at UMBC. <br><br><strong>How has your summer experience shaped the way you think about your power to impact the world?</strong><br>My summer experience has shaped me in a way of really understanding the needs of older adults and providing them with assistive technology to help them with their day to day activities. So many times people tend to see older adults as only handicap and incapable of taking care of themselves, but what they don’t know is that they are capable of doing the activities younger people do and are more aware on how to use the latest technologies out there such as Iphones and Ipads. Connecting with people who are interested in incorporating technologies in older adult’s life and me being involved in research has made me have the passion for helping older adults even more.</div>
