This seminar will \n show you how to motivate your faculty to effectively incorporate \n instructional technologies into course instruction. Through systematic \n planning and coordination across key divisions of the university (e.g.\, \n Academic Affairs\, Institutional Advancement\, Information Technology)\, you can \n implement strategies that could radically increase the faculty adoption rate.\n Faculty adoption of instructional technologies tends to be extremely low\, \n despite the significant promise they hold. This can lead to unnecessarily \n high costs to the institution\, in terms of inefficiencies as well as lost \n opportunities and reduced competitiveness in the educational marketplace. The \n central structural and cultural factors that create these challenging \n dynamics will be identified. http://www.educause.edu/events/E09/SEM10A END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:calendar:176001:field_item_dates:0:25 SUMMARY:Seminar 11A - Implementing Zotero on Your Campus: A Free\, Open-Source \n Solution for Student and Faculty Research in Higher Education DTSTAMP:20120524T101008Z DTSTART:20091103T153000Z DTEND:20091103T190000Z URL;VALUE=URI:http://www.educause.edu/node/176001 LOCATION:Meeting Room 507 DESCRIPTION:Zotero\, the free and easy-to-use Firefox extension that helps collect\, \n manage\, and cite research sources\, is now enterprise-ready and equipped to \n facilitate your institution`s student and faculty research. With more than a \n hundred institutions of higher education recommending Zotero as a research \n tool for students and faculty\, the tool is a new standard in research \n management in higher education. In this workshop\, you will learn how Zotero \n can help facilitate student and faculty research on your campus.\n From there the workshop will lay out a set of best practices for deploying \n the tool campus-wide. Particular attention will be devoted to integrating the \n tool with instruction\, building potential cross-campus partnerships for \n promotion\, and addressing specifics for enterprise installation\, including \n adding Zotero to your disk image and plugging it into students` and faculty`s \n existing campus digital storage options. \n http://www.educause.edu/events/E09/SEM11A END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:calendar:176003:field_item_dates:0:26 SUMMARY:Seminar 12A - Using Adobe Captivate to Develop Online Scenario-Based Learning \n with Branching and Assessment in Flash Format DTSTAMP:20120524T101008Z DTSTART:20091103T153000Z DTEND:20091103T190000Z URL;VALUE=URI:http://www.educause.edu/node/176003 LOCATION:Meeting Room 303 DESCRIPTION:Scenario-based learning places students in a simulated real-life situation \n and helps them acquire the decision-making and critical-thinking skills \n needed to accomplish their tasks successfully. Using traditional authoring \n tools to develop online scenario-based learning presents a challenge due to \n the dynamic\, branching character of online lessons. In addition\, they would \n likely require someone with expertise in programming languages and be \n expensive to develop\, deploy\, and maintain. Fortunately\, with Adobe \n Captivate\, educators can author and deliver case-based scenarios without \n having web authoring skill or programming knowledge.\n This seminar will provide hands-on experience with creating online \n scenario-based lessons with the Flash scenario simulation feature for \n branching and assessment. http://www.educause.edu/events/E09/SEM12A END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:calendar:176005:field_item_dates:0:27 SUMMARY:Seminar 13A - Identity Management for CIOs: Leveraging Federations DTSTAMP:20120524T101008Z DTSTART:20091103T153000Z DTEND:20091103T190000Z URL;VALUE=URI:http://www.educause.edu/node/176005 LOCATION:Korbel Ballroom 3B DESCRIPTION:Two challenges facing the higher education community are managing security \n and privacy and integrating software as a service (SaaS)\, or cloud computing\, \n into the IT organization. This seminar is designed to explain how your \n identity management system can provide a foundation for these activities. We \n will explain how you can leverage two solutions developed by higher \n education—Shibboleth and the InCommon Federation—to create a robust IT \n architecture that can also enhance security and privacy.\n Demonstrations and discussion will provide you with a detailed understanding \n of (1) how identity management systems fit into a robust IT architecture that \n can enhance security and privacy\, (2) how campuses can leverage \n standards-based solutions like SAML and the InCommon Federation to simplify \n collaboration with other campuses or vendors\, and (3) how to use the concept \n of ``level of assurance`` to support a comprehensive security and privacy \n program. http://www.educause.edu/events/E09/SEM13A END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:calendar:176007:field_item_dates:0:28 SUMMARY:Seminar 14A - Quality Online Course Design: Addressing "Wicked Problems" DTSTAMP:20120524T101008Z DTSTART:20091103T153000Z DTEND:20091103T190000Z URL;VALUE=URI:http://www.educause.edu/node/176007 LOCATION:Korbel Ballroom 4D DESCRIPTION:``Wicked problems`` in online course delivery may be familiar to those who \n teach or design courses\, but they are rarely resolved. Characteristics of \n such problems include: they cannot be easily defined so that all stakeholders \n agree on the issue to solve\; they have better or worse solutions\; they have \n no objective measure of success\; and they have no evident alternative \n solutions. Examples of ``wicked problems`` might include how to engage \n students who ``lurk\,`` what to do when course technology fails\, how to help \n students who are not independent learners succeed\, and how to solicit \n consistent participation.\n If these issues are addressed during the course design process with a plan \n for challenges that may arise during delivery\, faculty members can better \n offer instructional experiences that satisfy both learner needs and \n institutional objectives. http://www.educause.edu/events/E09/SEM14A END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:calendar:176009:field_item_dates:0:29 SUMMARY:Seminar 15A - Using Service Layers Instead of a Centralized/Decentralized \n Approach: How to Make IT Work DTSTAMP:20120524T101008Z DTSTART:20091103T153000Z DTEND:20091103T190000Z URL;VALUE=URI:http://www.educause.edu/node/176009 LOCATION:Meeting Room 601 DESCRIPTION:Universities that employ both centralized and decentralized staff often \n report unacceptable and frustrating levels of conflict between these groups. \n This session will provide a conceptual framework that embraces both groups. \n It will offer strategies to enable you to have the right conversations and \n immediately benefit from a more effective IT service deployment.

It`s critical \n to hire students with the right skill set\, but this isn`t easy to do in our \n highly competitive environment. The typical training required for new-student \n hires is complex and time-consuming.\n Once trained\, students are even more in demand by other employers\, and \n retention becomes a critical issue. The techniques presented are general \n enough that they can be used by both small and large help desk operations. \n This session will be highly interactive and fun! You will receive handouts \n with interview questions\, training schedules\, and plenty of practical advice \n you can take home and implement. http://www.educause.edu/events/E09/SEM17A END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:calendar:176015:field_item_dates:0:31 SUMMARY:Seminar 18A - Uncovering and Meeting Unspoken User Needs DTSTAMP:20120524T101008Z DTSTART:20091103T153000Z DTEND:20091103T190000Z URL;VALUE=URI:http://www.educause.edu/node/176015 LOCATION:Meeting Room 401 DESCRIPTION:IT projects are often driven by technical or organizational visions that are \n insufficiently informed by user needs\, in part because they have a way of \n hiding and remaining invisible even to the users themselves. Yet such hidden \n needs can undermine project success. IT initiatives will be more successful \n if we understand where user needs hide and how to tease them out\, as well as \n how to ensure that those needs drive project decisions.\n This seminar will offer a toolkit of key concepts and methods\, an opportunity \n to practice user-centered thinking through a set of interactive exercises\, \n and a chance to apply lessons learned to current initiatives.
