Tradeoffs and challengesscalability
How do we provide training and support to faculty and students in the use of such tools?
And there is the learning curve, technophobia, etc…
![Page 26: S.Porto Presentation at Annual EDEN Conference in Lisbon 2008](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103001/557c0093d8b42a0a6a8b4d52/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Tradeoffs and challengescost efficiency
What tools should the institution support? How extensively?
![Page 27: S.Porto Presentation at Annual EDEN Conference in Lisbon 2008](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103001/557c0093d8b42a0a6a8b4d52/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Tradeoffs and challengesownership
How much ownership is at risk under the institutional umbrella?
How do we differentiate support from ownership?
![Page 28: S.Porto Presentation at Annual EDEN Conference in Lisbon 2008](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103001/557c0093d8b42a0a6a8b4d52/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Tradeoffs and challengesinnovation
Web 2.0 tools are all about beta versions…
How can institutions keep up, should they keep up?
If you build it will they come?
![Page 29: S.Porto Presentation at Annual EDEN Conference in Lisbon 2008](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103001/557c0093d8b42a0a6a8b4d52/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Tradeoffs and challengessupport
We want institutions to support…
How much, how far?
Awareness of limitations of the underlying business models
![Page 30: S.Porto Presentation at Annual EDEN Conference in Lisbon 2008](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103001/557c0093d8b42a0a6a8b4d52/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Tradeoffs and challengesinteroperability/compatibility
How should these tools connect with existing platforms?
Enclosure?
Decentralized tools?
![Page 31: S.Porto Presentation at Annual EDEN Conference in Lisbon 2008](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103001/557c0093d8b42a0a6a8b4d52/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Tradeoffs and challengessustainability and robustness
Should institutions offer such tools to whom, for how long?
Who is accountable?
![Page 32: S.Porto Presentation at Annual EDEN Conference in Lisbon 2008](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103001/557c0093d8b42a0a6a8b4d52/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Tradeoffs and challengesquality control
How do institutions guarantee quality?
How much control should they have?
What kind of policies and guidelines should be put in place?
![Page 33: S.Porto Presentation at Annual EDEN Conference in Lisbon 2008](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022103001/557c0093d8b42a0a6a8b4d52/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Final remarks
Complex process of decision-making Grass roots movement that cannot be
contained Need for a vision and greater flexibility What is in fact the future of LMS’s?
More and more encapsulated functions? Customized configuration of personal
tools? Strategic plan and balance
