2017 Learning Impact Leadership Institute

In the weeks leading up to the start of a term, IT departments are inundated by requests from faculty to deploy new edtech tools. Managing these demands, setting priorities for deployment and maybe even saying no is a much about the art of negotiation and expectation management as it is about the technology. To avoid creating unnecessary tensions between IT and campus stakeholders, developing a strategy for growing a school's digital ecosystem that includes a request and adoption process that is flexible and timely is key. This session will explore how different campuses are revitalizing partnerships to create a highly engaged workflow for tools requests, while fostering collaboration to co-construct the institution's edtech ecosystem.
