Tavares Group Consulting is excited to announce the unveiling of the Sustainability Toolkit’s online dashboard prototype at the 2015 Fanshawe College Research & Innovation Day on Wednesday March 18! As identified in an earlier blog on the Sustainability Toolkit website, the Sustainability Toolkit has been working with Fanshawe College’s School of Contemporary Media with funding from NSERC’s College and Community Innovation Program to develop this leading edge tool. The Research and Innovation Day (RID) provides students, staff and faculty members an opportunity to showcase research, innovation and scholarship. Research teams will be presenting their projects to a judging panel in hopes of winning one of four prizes.
“This is a win-win situation. The students get to work on a real project, have exposure to a number of clients and disciplines and an innovative, cutting edge product is developed for industry – we couldn’t be happier.” – Sandra Tavares, Sustainability Toolkit co-developer
“Collaborative projects like the Sustainability Toolkit give Interactive Media students at Fanshawe College an experience in ‘real-world’ project development that is simply not available with regular assignments and classes. This experience helps them gain critical skills in team-based workflows, client interactions, project and time management, and in the end gives them an actual client-based portfolio piece that is invaluable when seeking careers in the digital media industry.” – Rob Haaf, Professor/Program Coordinator/Project Integration Coordinator School of Contemporary Media, Fanshawe College
