Do Good Institute Presentation and Workshop Request Form for Courses (AY24-AY25)
Welcome to the Do Good Institute Presentation and Workshop Request Form! 
The Do Good Institute offers hands-on experiences, funding opportunities, engaging curriculum, and effective programs that prepare Terps with the skills, experiences and resources to Do Good throughout their lives. We also offer presentations and workshops for instructors to utilize in their classes, programs, and more. 

Please complete this form to request a session for the AY24-AY25 academic year. A member of our team will email you to follow-up to determine availability and confirm scheduling and logistics. You will receive a copy of this form upon completion. We ask that you complete a form per workshop or presentation you are requesting and per section (if you are requesting for multiple sections). We kindly ask that you submit your request at least two weeks in advance of your preferred workshop/presentation date. We may not be able to accommodate requests made shorter than two weeks in advance.

Presentation Options
  • Meet the Do Good Institute: A brief, 10-minute presentation to introduce and expose students to the University of Maryland's Do Good Institute. This presentation highlights student programs and opportunities, including internships, fellowships, funding and more. 
Workshop Options  
All workshops are 45 minutes. It may be possible to extend workshop length depending on your needs and interests. We strive to make all of our workshops engaging and interactive - we utilize self-reflection, pair-shares, all-group discussions, and other activities to enhance participants' learning experience. All workshops also include an abbreviated Meet the Do Good Institute presentation.
  • Terps Take Action: Most often requested/recommended for UNIV and first-year courses. Participants will explore broad strategies for taking action (give, serve, speak, innovate, learn), reflect and discuss how these strategies relate to themselves, and connect with their peers to learn about their classmates’ first-hand interests and experiences. We recommend faculty interested in Terps Take Action or Social Change Wheel choose only one of those sessions based on your participants.
  • Social Change Wheel: Participants will explore specific methods of social change and discuss their strengths, challenges, and applications. These methods include twelve strategies (such as philanthropy, direct service, entrepreneurship, protest, advocacy, and more). This is considered more a more specific, intermediate version of Terps Take Action. We recommend faculty interested in Terps Take Action or Social Change Wheel choose only one of these sessions based on your participants. 
  • Changemakers Roles: Participants will understand and reflect on models and frameworks for understanding themselves as changemakers. Using three different models, participants will consider the areas in their life where they want to enact change, their spheres of influence for doing so, and how to best utilize their strengths and passions as individuals. 
  • Issue Mapping: Participants will identify social issues of public or personal concern using brainstorming and self-reflection. This session can work well for classes where participants need to identify or pick a social issue for investigation for a course assignment or project.  
  • Six Hats: A fast-paced thinking styles workshop that gives participants an opportunity to think about their own thinking style and the thinking styles of others by “trying on” different thinking styles. This session can work well for team building and perspective-taking.
