Concurrent SessionsE-Learning SupportThursday, November 20, 2003 Raymond Boggs, VP, SMB and Education Research, International Data Corporation Judith A. Pirani, ECAR Fellow, EDUCAUSE Expert-Driven Assessment: Making It Meaningful to Decision MakersThursday, November 20, 2003 Marilee Bresciani, Associate Professor, San Diego State University When assessment is not embraced, it's usually because it has been implemented in a manner that is meaningless to the experts who have articulated the end results of their efforts and are gathering the day-to-day information to evaluate whether their end result or outcome has been met. Assessment may also not be embraced because it is meaningless to those needing the information to make decisions at a higher level. This presentation will illustrate how to harness technology in order to make the implementation of assessment meaningful to both the expert identifying the met outcome and to the decision maker trying to inform policy. Faculty Use of Course Management SystemsThursday, November 20, 2003 Glenda Morgan, Director of Technology and Learning Initiatives, George Mason University How do faculty use course management systems? What impact does the use of these technologies have on teaching and learning in higher education? How can we best facilitate the effective use of course management systems? This presentation will address these issues based on research conducted for an ECAR Research Study published earlier this year. Federated Identity Management: Standards, Technologies, and Industry TrendsThursday, November 20, 2003 Daniel Blum, Senior Vice President and Research Director, Burton Group Federated identity management has emerged as a strategic requirement to enterprises. Traditional approaches such as delegated administration or directory synchronization do not support many users and organizations. Current SAML, WS-Security, and Liberty Alliance specifications must generate an interoperable security protocol stack for federated identity management and Web services to succeed. This presentation addresses the need for enterprises to deploy federated identity in a secure, evolutionary manner by integrating it with existing identity and access management architectures. IT Security: Governance, Strategy, and Practice in Higher EducationThursday, November 20, 2003 Robert B. Kvavik, Associate Vice President for Planning, University of Minnesota John Voloudakis, Managing Director - Higher Education Technology, Huron Consulting Group In the spring of 2003, the EDUCAUSE Center for Applied Research (ECAR) launched a major study of IT security in higher education. Nearly 500 colleges and universities responded to the ECAR quant Federated Identity Management: Standards, Technologies, and Industry TrendsThursday, November 20, 2003 Daniel Blum, Senior Vice President and Research Director, Burton Group Federated identity management has emerged as a strategic requirement to enterprises.

Improving Learning and Reducing CostsThursday, November 20, 2003 Carol A. Twigg, President & CEO, National Center for Academic Tranformation Colleges and universities are offering thousands of fully online courses, ostensibly altering centuries-old methods of teaching and learning. Few of these courses, however, make significant improvements in either the cost or quality dimensions of student learning; instead, they frequently replicate face-to-face pedagogies and organizational frameworks. Are you taking advantage of IT's capabilities as you design new learning environments, or are you simply migrating your on-ground approaches online? Using examples drawn primarily from the Pew Grant Program in Course Redesign, this presentation will discuss new models of online learning that improve quality and reduce costs.

Kvavik, Associate Vice President for Planning, University of Minnesota John Voloudakis, Managing Director - Higher Education Technology, Huron Consulting Group In the spring of 2003, the EDUCAUSE Center for Applied Research (ECAR) launched a major study of IT security in higher education. Nearly 500 colleges and universities responded to the ECAR quant Leadership Style and the IT Leader in Higher EducationThursday, November 20, 2003 Mark R. Nelson, ECAR Fellow, NACS This session will present findings from two recent studies that investigated the relationship between leadership style and IT leadership in higher education. The studies provide evidence that leadership style does matter. Implications for the hiring and professional development of IT leaders will be discussed. The Condition of the Community: IT Leadership in Higher EducationThursday, November 20, 2003 Richard N. Katz, Vice President, EDUCAUSE James I. Penrod, Professor Emeritus, Leadership, The University of Memphis In the second half of 2003 ECAR undertook a study of nearly 2,000 IT practitioners in higher education. This presentation will review the key findings on the nature and composition of the community, working conditions and professional mobility, leadership innovation and style, and the future of higher education's IT leadership. Of special interest will be a comparison of leaders whose roles conform to those described by Synnott and Gruber, who coined the term chief information officer in the early 80s with other positions that are officially or unofficially denoted as CIOs. The presentation will also examine characteristics of aspirants to the CIO position as compared to sitting CIOs. Design Laboratory 1Thursday, November 20, 2003 Philip J.
