Added by the EDUCAUSE Librarian
Title:Beyond Being There: A Blueprint for Advancing the Design, Development, and Evaluation of Virtual Organizations (ID: CSD5376)
Source:National Science Foundation
Origin:Contributed by Organizations or Campuses (05/30/2008)
Type:Articles, Papers, and Reports
Abstract:

This report is based primarily on a workshop involving 42 people from academia and industry.
The goal of the workshop was to share systematic knowledge about the components, characteristics,
practices, and transformative impact of effective VOs; identify topics for future research that will
inform the ongoing design, development, and analysis of VOs for science and engineering research
and education; and create a new cross-disciplinary VO research community to conduct research across
a range of important topics. A subsequent workshop brought together more than 200 practitioners and
VO researchers to discuss how to build effective virtual organizations, and some of the material from
that workshop is represented here.

ELI In Conversation: The Fear 2.0 Group
Created by Gerry Bayne (EDUCAUSE) on June 12, 2008

Web 2.0 tools have the power to transform education. Such a transformation requires that faculty, students, and institutions take risks. With those risks comes fear, which is often unarticulated. How do you tackle this fear and make real change?

HumaniTech: Bridging Divides, Building Collaborations
Added by the EDUCAUSE Librarian
Title:HumaniTech: Bridging Divides, Building Collaborations (ID: EDU07099)
Author(s):Barbara L. Cohen (University of California, Irvine), Stephen D. Franklin (University of California, Irvine), and Elizabeth Pace (University of California, Irvine)
Origin:Presented at EDUCAUSE Annual Conferences (10/23/2007)
Type:Presentations/Speeches
Abstract:

HumaniTech links humanities and technology by combining the perspectives and skills of faculty and staff from both humanities and campus-wide resources to work across disciplines and lines that often divide the research university: research/teaching, central/local control, faculty/staff, traditionalists/innovators. HumaniTech focuses on collaboration where IT is essential to these bridge-building efforts rather than a goal in itself.

Communication Tools: the Whole Enchilada
Created by Susan Miltenberger (Maryland Institute College of Art) on February 15, 2007
Thanks to everyone who gave me feedback on project communication tools!  As
we have been researching tools and recommendations, the institutional needs
for these systems has started growing.  In addition to project management we
are wondering about how collaboration tools can also meet communication
needs within our department:
  • as a repository for documentation (how to install...)
  • to provide an overview of what is going on in the department (this
  • week...this month)
  • as a place where all the bits of information can be brought together into
  • a big snapshot
I have no expectations that technology will provide us with the sole
solution to improving communication and workflow, but I¹d really like to
hear more ideas and stories about how other institutions are effectively
using collaboration applications.  We narrowed down our list of possible
solutions to four:  mediaWiki, drupal, typepad and Teams.

And since drupal consolidates many kinds of content (wiki, blog, RSS, etc.)
we felt that it was the product most worth looking at.  Yeah...simple,
right?
