A Model of the Academy The Goal

Charles Kerns, SULAIR, Spring 2005

The Goal

… an integrated suite of applications and services that support:

The Model A Checklist

Charles Kerns, SULAIR, Spring 2005

i.e., all academic (non-admin) work of students & faculty

– teaching – informal learning – academic authoring – research – advising– program and curricula reviews

search, browse, alert, …

explicit – formal & informal, institutional & personal

A Checklist The Goal

• content mgmt services

• rich metadata capabilities

• powerful discovery & navigation tools

• pervasive distribution & publication services

+ agents that can mine deep stores of content+ tools to manage feeds & subscriptions from what's new services

local & distant all formats & all sources

formal & informal

+ storage & preservation capacity to match

evolving toward my personal knowledge environment all manner of resources (compound, complex, media, data, …) any/multiple venues from wall-sized displays to personal phones

implicit – derived from the work and its associations

+ mapped networks of relationships (e.g., citations, use-patterns) computed – taxonomic hierarchies, associative links

A Checklist The Goal

• flexible, highly granular DRM services

• bandwidth that supports rich media, video, teleconferencing

• computing horsepower that scales to support the growth of srvcs

AuthN/Z, name, role, context licenses, contracts, IP & other rights types of use, redistribution, mixing

individuals, groups departments & schools, campuses

+ delivery channels for all manner of device types

components

scope

world-wide collaboratories

• seamless, permanent access to content
