2.  ~400 sessions in 2.5 days  250 vendors at the exhibition  5-6000 attendees? Down from ~8000  First time online audience (streaming)  Big topics (from my view) › Current economic down-turn › ID Mgmt › Cloud computing › Mobile › LMSes

3.  Centralized and Decentralized IT  Notes from keynotes  Online learning trends  Cloud computing (private, public)  Sustainable IT

4.  U. of Wisconscin/Milwaukee and Cornell  Central & distributed IT need to be strategic partners for services to campus  Service layer model (instead of central/ de-central silos) › Leverage – where centralization gains efficiencies › Edge – special services for local needs

5.  First, “know thyself” (campus culture, budget structure, governance, etc.)  Next, need to know what we all do (recent CTSC exercise)  Then need to know who does the same things, and why (CTSC ongoing)  Find (together) the best mix of “leverage and edge”, to build trust

6. What distinguishes good from great under similar circumstance? 5 stages of decline 1. Hubris born of success – avoided by great leadership 2. Undisciplined pursuit of more 3. Denial of risk 4. Grasping for salvation 5. Capitulation to irrelevance and death

7.  Set up your own governance – a personal character Board of Directors  Get young people in your face (for UW, hire co-ops)  Turn off gadgets, create whitespace to THINK  Double your question:statement ratio  Start a stop-doing list

8. In corporations, CEOs have all power (98/100 pts). Universities have tenured faculty with “1000 pts of no”. Have to architect conditions for power by collaboration, shared interests. True leadership is when people follow even if they have freedom not to. Have not come to the conclusion that hire ed should model itself like business!

9.  Ecology of creativity has different business models, copyright appropriate to one may harm another.  Ecology of “Britney Spears” copyright  Ecology of Science  Ecology of Education  Change the law? Hopeless  Change norms/practices? Creative commons project “some rights reserved” (e.g., share, remix, but not for commercial) Creative commons project

10.  Digital content innovations, like e- books, creates environment for “content as a service”  Move from inputs to outcomes: pressure from individuals (eportfolio), gov’t, institutions, for measurement  Web 2.0 (again, still) and also distributed apps and services (cloud)

11.  Moodle and Sakai, the open systems, are accepted, respected products  IMS standards for learning application interoperability (Blackboard can talk to Moodle apps, can pull in SpACE app,..)  Mobile going to full saturation – “so what?” or “so what’s next?”?  Central LMS versus model of Web 2.0 debate continues

12. Provisioning for a wide range of IT capabilities through a combination of hardware, operating systems, applications, storage, with a rich set of customizable services. Redefining relationship between user and provider, educational and commercial market  Public Cloud – purchase on pay per component  Private Cloud - your own in-house

13.  Virtual computing lab (2004) › Open source implementation › 4 physical data centres › Encompasses > 2000 compute engines  A new tech paradigm: control more in the hands of the user rather than “doled out” by IT (yet can be made “safe”)  New business paradigm for IT capacity planning  Still, a “miracle occurs here” step from where you are now

14.  For commodity services – where your institution adds no value (gmail often used as e.g.)  To introduce disruptive technologies › E.g, go where the users are - iTunes, FB, YT, Twitter (why re-invent?)  For JIT computing and niche apps

15. Three main areas to attack  PCs/Office Equip › Power mgmt (auto turn off) and phantom power reduction (Smartstrips, turns off peripherals when computer goes stand-by)  Datacenters/Server rooms – meaure PUE (power usage effectiveness)  HPC – plan to build own bldg, cloud What you can do with data, funding, gov’t policy and sustainability office, and high concentration of interested parties

16.  Blackboard, Moodle, and Sakai (video) Blackboard, Moodle, and Sakai  LMS or Web 2.0 (slides, no video) LMS or Web 2.0  Mobiles (no materials posted yet?) Mobiles  Private Cloud (no materials posted yet?) Private Cloud  Public Cloud (slides, no video) Public Cloud  Sustainable IT (slides, no video) Sustainable IT
