From T/MC’s activity log (OHATS). Select a year to see everything else from that year.
- 1993-02-06 Dan Bassill met with Nick Rieser of the Metro Chicago Information Center. Reiser confirmed my belief that the T/MC's anticipated use of GIS was not being duplicated elsewhere and that it does have a broad community of support. MCIC agreed to map T/MC data, for a small fee, and to provide a list of people to contact.

- 2000-10-09 Email from Nicole Rosa in Denver who is beginning to build an on-line math tutoring "HUB" with T/MC ideas. My last email to her was " I also suggest you go in another direction. What should a parent be considering in making a decision on choosing an on-line tutor? What fees should a parent expect? What guarantees or refunds are available? Is there any body of knowledge you can point to or create that would make visitors want to come to your site as a reference for on-line tutoring? The internet is the wild west in terms of commerce and tutoring is a very subjective area. Can you take a lead and help educate the consumer from your site? Can you link to organizations who also are trying to do this? She wrote: "I really like where you're going with this, Dan! The field of on-line tutoring is wide open with absolutely no guidelines. You're giving me all sorts of ideas. I could be the person to sort of pull all of this together. I will start working on your suggestions!
- 2000-10-10 Christine Feldman contacted us to request a directory. She works for DCFS. I asked her if she wanted to order multiple copies for others in her office.

Both meetings take place Tuesday at 1 p.m. and 6 p.m., respectively. It is my impression from frequent visits to your site that Kalamazoo folks could go piggyback with your efforts in a viable parnership. I'll also check out your upcoming November conference as a in-service training session that our group leaders can attend. The information you share helps me make a compelling case for a partnership.

We hope to do a program about the Digital Divide for our librarian colleagues in Atlanta in June 2002. If you know of someone in that region who is doing something similar, I'd appreciate knowing about him/her. We have a representative from the feds, who assists librarians with grants for projects to end the divide (or take a stab at it at least), and we'll need to find someone else to address the issue -- a panel of three. I'd ask you, but I can't afford to fly you down to Atlanta!

I've been meeting with Sue about planning recruitment events as well as a recognition event for those who have volunteered or mentored.

- 2002-01-06 A set of six maps that show poverty areas in Chicago are now on the GIS web site. These maps show schools on the November State Board of Education warning list, and tutor/mentor programs. We’ve broken the maps down by the time of day the service is available and the age group served. Our maps show many more programs available during the 3-5 time frame when most workplace volunteers are not able to participate in comprehensive tutor/mentor programs. Our maps show fewer programs for high school youth, which is a contributing factor to the high dropout rate of teens. I emailed reporters, columist, editorial people, etc. at the Tribune, SunTimes and WGN Radio to encourage them to use these maps in 2002 stories.

"Raptors in the City" has the special goal of connecting urban kids with nature via technology." I sent information back on the conference, web site and other ways we could help people learn about this program.
- 2002-01-17 Margaret Grieco, Visiting Fellow, Lucy Cavendish College, Cambridge, UK, posted this message to Global Knowledge Development list: The internet can be used to empower those previously by-passed in decision making processes. The poverty mapping of Chicago (T/MC) is an excellent example.

There is nearly $65,000 available for 2002 grants to one-on-one tutor/mentor programs (for grants, Demetrrio Award and Searns Family Foundation Match). While a schedule of review was discussed, the bigger issue was the announcement that the Strategic Planning Committee of the Chicago Bar Foundation had decided that Lend A Hand was not a core strategy and that the fund raising (and grant giving) would not be continued in the present format in 2003. This led to the beginning of what will be an on-going conversation among LAH council members intended to keep the program alive and growing.

I explained T/MC goals and our search for a Health Care partner. He suggested an number of opportunities and seemed enthused to pursue the opportunity, even suggesting ways students could take the lead.
- 2002-03-15 TraceyBrown, a senior at DePaul, met at T/MC to learn about intern opportunities. Since her major is in Social Work and she hopes to start a youth center after finishing seminary, we talked about her doing an internship that builds knowledge of what it takes to run a tutor/mentor program and how social service groups, faith groups and universities could be more strategic in the way they help.

- 2005-02-25 Received following message from Clair Keim, from the UK, who has a Churchill Travel Fellowship to visit the USA in 2005 to learn about School based mentoring. This is in response to a message I sent encouraging her organization to host a portion of the May and Nov eConference. " Fantastic! Thanks Daniel. Despite working in a Technology College, IT isn't my strong point, but we do have internet conferencing facilities in the school and i've forwarded your email to various staff who should be able to help with the technical aspects. I've also forwarded it to the 'Learning Mentor Co-ordinator' for the whole of Birmingham. I'm sure she'll be keen to get involved and is regularly in touch with mentors in all of the 100 secondary schools (ages 11-16/18) in the city - Birmingham is apparently the biggest local government education authority in Europe, including a wide range of diverse communities, so there should be plenty of scope for learning from each other. I'll let you know when i hear back from other staff and have more idea about the possibilities at our end. I'll go back to your website for more detailed information about the internet conferences and look forward to making plans.
- 2005-03-03 Jurandir and his wife Herika have been visiting from Sao Paulo,Brazil for the past two weeks, learning about Cabrini Connections and the Tutor/Mentor Connection.

Shared info about T/MC and AYP and discussed a new AYPF study titled: Restoring the Balance between Academics and Civic Engagement in Public Schools, a guide to producing students who are both academically proficient and civically engaged. This report highlights core values of the T/MC and while it focuses on schools as the place where kids learn these values, it shares a T/MC goal of engaging parents, CBOs and the business community as responsible partners. Sarah will send copies for the May Confernece and is considering ways to participate in T/MC forums, such as the eConference.
- 2005-03-11 Received email today from Janet Salmons, who I've worked with previously in conferneces such as Wired.org. She wrote, "When I read your newsletters I always try to think of some way we could do something together again, and this time I have an idea! TechSoup.org has asked me to host an online "event" on the topic of education and the digital divide, focusing on online learning and collaboration tools/spaces. I have a lot of experience with online learning in academic settings, which do bridge the divide for a lot of people who would otherwise not be able to continue their education. I also have a lot of experience with online collaboration. But currently I do not have work going that uses these tools in community-based ways. So I wondered whether you might be interested to join me as a co-host for this proposed event? Between the two of us we cover a lot of ground. If you are interested we can refine these broad topics and decide how to approach the event. " I agreed and we're aiming to host a week-line event during the week of April 18.
