I guess I’ll be chiming in on anything to do with accessibility, blogging, wikis, web statistics, podcasting, rss, etc. I’m walking out if someone calls Facebook an “emerging technology.” Academic Advising Wiki: I have convinced my colleagues that an internal knowledge base a.k.a. a wiki, would be highly beneficial for our office. I demoed an installation of MediaWiki (similar to the Oregon State University wiki) and hope to get it up and running next month. For more information on higher education and wikis, check out these videos on “21 days of Wiki Adoption“: [...] […] Technology panel: I’ll be on a panel for Academic Advising + Web 2.0 at the regional NACADA conference in Vancouver in March.

The NASPA "Technology Knowledge Community" has recently been resurrected. A proposal to bring it back to life was approved by the NASPA Board of Directors in early December. Look for more information soon. Good news. The NASPA “Technology Knowledge Community” has recently been resurrected.

Eric is presenting a session at a two-day professional development opportunity in January but judging by the titles of some of the other sessions (”Virtual Affliction: Understand the Power and Addiction to the Internet” and “Crossing the Line Online: How Cybersex, Cyberaffairs, and Pornography live in the shadows of the Net”) it’s clear that we have a lot more work ahead of this to counterbalance these fear sessions.

Our students are usually our best sources of information. @ Sheesh:
