A3 cont: Through these relationships, students can build social capital & learn to activate their networks. Examples of this are adjusting school schedules & graduation requirements to allow businesses & the community to become an extension of classroom learning

We're trying to ensure experiences are as high quality as possible. Not all connections are created equal. Can be tough to tell how meaningful the social capital you've fostered until years down the line unless it's really obvious in the moment. Strive for that!

The first thing we can do is be asset based. Assumptions that students won't be able to complete complex work lead to low impact opportunity. The second thing is to be relationally oriented. Initiatives that match 30 kids with one professional mentor miss the mark.

Q3: Enter internships + industry projects. Education institutions can provide the support that lowers the bar for industry involvement. But first, we have to expand what getting a credit looks like for students beyond traditional carnegie units. Industry can help.

There's so much latent to be unleashed in schools today. Alumni and peer networks might be the most under-capitalized networks that schools could unlock. H/T COOP Careers whoyouknow.org/alumni-networkā€¦
