This is a view showing participants in a single #Tutor/#Mentor Leadership and Networking Conference. It's an example of how you can zoom deeper into the KUMU map. I show more at tutormentor.blogspot.com/2025/12/take...

Heading into 2026 I hope to connect w people who share these interests: #tutor #mentor #tutormentor #youthdevelopment #workforcedevelopment #nonschoolhours #birthtowork #volunteer #complexproblems #socialcapital, #maps, #systemsthinking #leadership #clmooc #networkanalysis #conceptmaps

I've used #maps since 1994 to point volunteers & donors to #tutor/#mentor programs in all low-opportunity areas of #Chicago. Graphics like this show the need for long-term investment. View at tutormentor.blogspot.com/2018/07/afte...

I posted this in late 2023 after I first joined BlueSky. I'm still looking for people talking about #YouthDevelopment, #tutor/#mentor programs, #nonschoolhours, #socialcapital, etc.

This #map shows organizations that attended one, or more, #Tutor/#Mentor Leadership & Networking Conferences held in #Chicago between 1994 and 2015. I'd love to find list where all are still connecting & sharing ideas. tutormentorexchange.net/conferences-...

This #ConceptMap shows some of the #data #mapping sites I point to in the #Tutor/#Mentor library. cmapspublic.ihmc.us/rid=1P554W2G... Use to show where people need extra help & point resources to groups in those areas providing help. Will be extra important as Feds cut funding to NPOs.

I was part of a ZOOM call last night w educators I met in 2013 via #ETMOOC. I've written often on my #Tutor/#Mentor blog about the potential of #cMooc communities. tutormentor.blogspot.com/2023/05/part... Open the #clmooc, ETMOOC & #dlmooc categories & skim through the articles.

I created the #Tutor/#Mentor Connection in #Chicago in 1993 to help mentor-rich non-school programs grow in every high poverty area of the city/suburbs. It's not enough to have a few good programs. Many great programs are needed. tutormentor.blogspot.com/2020/10/role...

31 years ago I launched the #Tutor/#Mentor Connection in #Chicago to aggregate information about non-school youth programs & increase visibility for all of them, in effort to draw more consistent flow of resources to each. tutormentorexchange.net/strategy I'm still doing this. #npsky #philanthropy

In mid 1990s after I presented #Tutor/#Mentor Connection strategies to potential supporter I heard him say, "he's excited, but I don't know what he's talking about." So I began creating visualizations to share strategies. Most people have never seen these.
