CampusEAI: MyCase, A Community-Source Portal Strategy
Added by the EDUCAUSE Librarian
Title:CampusEAI: MyCase, A Community-Source Portal Strategy (ID: SAC0314)
Author(s):Lev S. Gonick (Case Western Reserve University)
Origin:Presented at SAC Conferences (2003)
Type:Articles, Papers, and Reports, Presentations/Speeches
Abstract:Case Western Reserve University (CWRU) needed to cost-effectively integrate its enterprise applications and databases in real time to provide better teaching, learning, and research services. After extensive research, CWRU concluded it needed to develop its own non-proprietary, relatively inexpensive, and scalable portal. The resulting set of deliverables evolved into the CampusEAI portal effort. This session will address the enterprise application integration challenge, the partnership model with vendors and other universities, and the formation of a CampusEAI collaborative.

Portals
Added by the EDUCAUSE Librarian
Title:Portals (ID: SAC0217)
Author(s):Larry K. Christiansen (Mesa Community College)
Origin:Presented at SAC Conferences (2002)
Type:Presentations/Speeches
Abstract:Some buy off the shelf, others build their own, some build and buy. What is the effect of portals, and how are they being adapted by some organizations to fit the pedagogical needs of departments as well as the institution? Educational portals have the opportunity to go far beyond Excite and Yahoo. Will we have the courage to speak out for the educational use of portals as well as their use to personalize the University?

Portal Implementation -- A Day At A Time
Added by the EDUCAUSE Librarian
Title:Portal Implementation -- A Day At A Time (ID: SAC0121)
Author(s):John Peterson (University of Wisconsin-Madison) and Ann E. Stunden (University of Wisconsin-Madison)
Origin:Presented at SAC Conferences (2001)
Type:Presentations/Speeches
Abstract:This session will discuss the UW-Madison Portal Project roll out. It began last fall with a pilot to fewer than 500 students, ramped up to the full student body of 40,000 this summer, and will add 14,000 faculty and staff by year's end. Strategies presented include structured collaboration, multiple targeted demos, frequent focus and feedback groups, customer-expectation management, adding compelling functionality to encourage broad usage, and overcoming data "custodians'" reluctance to sharing their data.
