eduStyle just put out a book. It looks good.
I really need to get on creating a brand style guide i even if it very short and sweet.
An interesting facet that was touched upon that I think could be its own forum is the location and structure of a school’s front-facing web teams. Are they located within marketing or within the IT group or both? Those two groups often have widely differing competencies and goals. What dependencies do these groups have and who are the gatekeepers to experimentation and change?
So many schools focusing on Facebook. I wonder if this will pan out as it seems the biggest growth area are middle-aged people like me. Perhaps, this will be good for non-traditional students.
The downturn in the economy may be the largest boon for software as a service because it will force the hand of those who have blocked hosted solutions.
Exploit the sponsored links in the GSA to advertise ITS services. (Best friggin idea of the session)
