Scholars Tank

Scholars Tank is an entrepreneurial-themed addition to Scholars Showcase, where students and faculty can present an idea to improve some aspect of campus, that has the potential to be turned into an entrepreneurial venture. Our campus entrepreneurs will pitch their idea to a panel of “sharks” who will decide which idea gets funded.

The winner will be awarded $5,000 to seed that idea from concept to concrete–watching your idea grow into something that has a positive impact on the university. These can be individual projects or group projects (up to 5 people per group).

Presentation Guidelines

Your Presentation Must Address:

The Problem: Innovations break constraints. Your innovation that solves a problem can be something you’ve personally faced, something that you have seen on campus, or something much bigger. Or, is there an opportunity that the university is not taking advantage of that you are uniquely suited to execute?
The Addressable Market: So, you have identified a problem, but is it really a problem? Or an opportunity? Provide evidence to support your argument. Who does this problem affect? How much money is in the market, and where is the market headed?
The Current Solutions: Often, someone else will also be trying to solve the problem you are addressing or has already tried. Tell us what those solutions leave out and why that is a problem.
Your Solution: You’ve made the case, now tell us how you solve it? Is it a product or service? Something that you have already prototyped? What’s next? What do you see for the future, based on available information today? A cool name for your solution never hurts.
180 Seconds!! The time restriction forces you to think through the entire problem & solution. It’s easy to ramble, but to fit everything in that time frame, you must know your stuff! That said, don’t let the time limit be the thing keeping you from pitching. The best way to beat the clock is by practicing. The Scholar Tank Team will also give you feedback as to what went well and what needs to be improved so you can fine tune your idea.

Application Process

Proposals are due Monday, April 7 at 8:00 AM. All individuals on the proposal must be EKU students currently enrolled in courses.

In your proposal, please include the following information:

Names of participants
One paragraph explaining how your business will solve a problem in the marketplace (maximum of 100 words).

Email your proposal to Dr. Blair at james.blair@eku.edu or Dr. Huq at tahsin.huq@eku.edu. They will confirm with you receipt of your submission if you are selected for the Final Round.

Submissions selected to the Final Round will have a 3-minute presentation with a panel of judges followed by approximately 10-minutes of Q&A with the judges. The event will occur on Monday, April 14th from 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM in the Faculty Center for Teaching & Learning, Crabbe Library 318. The presentation will be open to the public, and we encourage you to view the presentations and cheer on the presenters.

Faculty Writer’s Retreat

The Office of the Provost, the College of Business, EKU Libraries, and the Noel Studio for Academic Creativity have partnered to offer an EKU Faculty Writer’s Retreat, May 21, 22, and 23 in Perkins.

Think of this retreat as an “academic incarceration”! We provide you with a private space in Perkins – away from the distractions of your office – to focus only on your writing.

For three days, this “academic incarceration” will provide private space in Perkins to focus on your writing project, grant application, or the finishing touches of your latest draft. In return, you agree to write – and leave the grading, email, meetings, and social media at home, or in your office.

Arriving at the retreat with very specific writing tasks, whether conceptualizing and drafting a new manuscript or completing final revisions to a long-standing work, will allow you to maximize this opportunity.

All instructional faculty are welcome to apply – preference will be given to faculty preparing for a major review and to new faculty establishing a writing program.

Access the application

Applications are due by April 18, 2025. Please contact fctl@eku.edu with questions.

Student Engagement During Scholars Showcase

Faculty support of student engagement during Scholars Showcase will foster awareness of cross-disciplinary collaborations as well as scholarship and creative innovations.

Following Scholars Showcase attendance and/or participation, students will:

Establish a sense of community among other students and faculty;
Learn about, with, and from other students in different disciplines;
Develop new perceptions or interest of cross-disciplinary education;
Increase knowledge and confidence of current discipline;
Identify opportunities for research or creative innovations;
Explore new opportunities available to them for scholarly research and creative endeavors at EKU; and
Learn about a new method of research or increase knowledge of the research process.

Incorporating Scholars Showcase into Learning Experiences

Course-Level
These strategies will assist with integrating Scholars Showcase experiences into a spring undergraduate or graduate-level course. Scholars Showcase can be an ideal opportunity to showcase research and scholarly activity to first-year students, student researchers or research teams, and rising seniors, among many others. It also serves as an opportunity to increase cross-disciplinary awareness and knowledge.

Class
Schedule class time for all students to attend the Keynote Speaker’s presentation, UP Showcase or any other events. Prior to the event, students engage in preliminary discussions to make predictions about the content and its relationship to current classroom content, learning, or discovery at EKU. Following the presentation or event, students participate in debriefing as a group or through a class discussion board for deeper reflection about content learned, relation to current knowledge, and the role of collaboration.

Individual Student
Attend: Students attend a specified number of events during Scholar’s Showcase and provide a brief rationale for selection of events attended.

Engage presenters and speakers: Students interview presenters to identify the relationship to current coursework, potential research or scholarly pursuits at EKU, scholarly inquiry, employability skills, or career preparation.
Reflect: Students reflect on how they relate to the content or could contribute knowledge as well as questions or applications in areas related to the content.
Participate: Students submit their work to a Scholars Showcase event.

Assignment-Level
These strategies will assist with integrating Scholars Showcase experiences into spring undergraduate or graduate-level assignments or designing assignments designed around these events. Scholars Showcase is the ideal opportunity to showcase campus research, scholarly, and creative activity to students, leading to moments of reflection and self-assessment. Consider the following:

Extra credit for attending a specified number of presentations, showcases, or events during Scholars Week. Project options include:

Proof of attendance from event
Reflection
Summary
Response
Multimodal, creative, or technology-oriented project (digital collage using Jamboard,Canva,Adobe Spark, or similar visual tools

Extra credit or assignment credit for writing a one-page reflective essay:

Students reflect on how they relate to the content or could contribute knowledge as well as the strengths and areas for growth of the presentation’s content.
Students offer a response to the content.
Students compose a reflection based on information learned and the experience.

Interview Presenters:

Students interview presenters to determine the relationship between the presentation and current coursework, potential research idea, or future career.
Students interview or compose a summary to understand the presenter’s approach, process, and experience conducting academic research or engaging in scholarly activity at EKU.

Case studies or Community-based Situation (scenario-based learning):

Disciplines create a video of their role in relation to the case study/community-based situation and share with students from other disciplines (multidisciplinary education).
Students collaborate to generate interview questions or a treatment plan for the individual within the case study or solution for the community-based situation (interdisciplinary education).

Collaborative Research Projects:

Students in one course partner with faculty members from different programs to conduct a portion of a research project (literature review, data collection, analysis). The faculty member serves as a mentor.
Student teams collaborate with a faculty member to extend course-based scholarly or creative activity for a Scholars Showcase event.

Multidisciplinary Project:

Common learning lab or scenario using the same materials and case study within or across multiple areas (e.g., general education and special education). Students develop common, non-technical communication across both special education and general education.
Students interview a student conducting research in an area of interest.

Hot Topics:

Students research a “hot topic” within their major and provide recommendations based on pros and cons identified through Scholars Showcase events.

Critically Appraised Research Topic (Barends et al., 2017):
The purpose of this project is to assist students in understanding the basic process of conducting a literature review or critical appraisal. A pair of students select a topic approved by the instructor, develop a research question and inclusion criteria, search the literature, evaluate or critically appraise the literature, and describe the results and conclusions of the literature review.
Simulation-based Learning Experiences (Papadopoulos, 2019):
Following a video or active simulation-based learning experience about content within a program (therapeutic, environmental, or educational) students share perceptions of the simulation, its relationship to course content, other programs, or future decision-making in their career. Within this learning experience, students are exposed to a certain situation requiring their specific skill set. Students may also identify gaps that their current knowledge or skill set can’t fill, requiring cross-disciplinary involvement. Students identify opportunities through Scholars Showcase experiences.
Community-based Learning Projects (Kolb & Kolb, 2005; Nario-Redmond et al., 2017; Tsilimingras et al., 2018):
As a final project, students in programs that provide community service in the form of therapeutic, social, or environmental support present (or explore) information related to involvement, perceptions, and outcomes.
Create an in-service training for healthcare providers, teachers, or community members related to your discipline based on information or questions related to Scholars Showcase experiences.
