DISCUSSION QUESTIONS What are the three partnerships/collaborations/interdependencies that
you will nurture this year? Why? What competencies do you feel we need to nurture in order to help the
academy in the 21st century? How can we as IT professionals best prepare to lead the changes
ahead? How might learning technologists best help with campus strategic
planning efforts? What interdependent activities might learning technologists engage in to
support new learning environments? What professional development opportunities will help us learn
metaphors/languages to talk with academic leaders to solve academic challenges?
How are cloud opportunities changing your staffing needs and skills? What area of your own professional development would you like to
pursue as a result of attending this conference?
