Technology is Ubiquitous in Higher Ed•The role of technology in higher education is widely studied and embraced. •Technology in higher education (especially related to teaching and learning) is generally well funded and integrated in administration, planning and decision making.•Likewise, student affairs organizations should incorporate technology considerations into all areas of planning.
Why Technology and Student Affairs?
![Page 17: Technology and Student Affairs](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070520/58f08e4b1a28ab792f8b4581/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Why Technology and Student Affairs?
Student Affairs is Not Keeping PaceThree indicators suggest that this mainstreamed approach to using technology as a tool is still not embraced.
1. Anecdotal evidence as observed by technology practitioners in student affairs.
2. The lack of a current handbook or text on the topic of technology in student affairs.
3. The absence of dedicated coursework on the topic in most student affairs graduate programs.
![Page 18: Technology and Student Affairs](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070520/58f08e4b1a28ab792f8b4581/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
What Sparked This Project1. Student Affairs On-Line (studentaffairs.com) – Articles in general
2. Student Affairs On-Line –2004 Virtual Case Study Competition (Create a course on Student Affairs and Technology)
3. How does what we are doing (at NC State) compare to others?

What the Literature Tells Us1. Vast literature about technology in higher education, particularly its
use and impact in the classroom. However, literature more specific to technology in student affairs is only recently emerging and still quite limited.
2. One common theme: balancing high tech with high touch3. New audiences: serving distance learners via technology4. The discussion is not “if” but “when;” and today isn’t soon enough
(source = just about any student).

Survey Objectives
•To understand how other Student Affairs units are administering technology.•To see how our own efforts compare to other institutions.•To create a benchmark against which we can compare future survey results and contribute to the profession.

• Barratt (2001) looked at these four areas:• Policies• Practices• Staffing• Technology
• We adjusted this model, resulting in these areas:• Planning (includes policies, assessment)• Practices• Staffing• Resources (more general take on technologies)

• Sample-convenience not random• Survey questions/options: New topic-lack of
qualitative foundation• Due to the diversity within Student Affairs
programs, it was sometimes difficult to pick one answer that captured what was happening in the division.
• Diversity between Student Affairs units may account for some differences (e.g., inclusion or exclusion of Enrollment Management offices).

Summary of Demographics
1. Sample not random-determine institution by institution how to interpret
2. CSO filled out survey-considering how busy CSOs are, the fact that they filled it out themselves may indicate a special interest in the topic.
3. Sample: Larger number public institutions than in the population
4. Sample: Carnegie rep is heavier for DE, DI, MI, MII, BLA, BG

Summary of Resources
•Institutions are generally satisfied with technology resources they are using.•The results for the two “laundry lists” of resource items are fairly similar.•There are some resources being used more for individual/deparmental productivity than for delivering services and programs.
![Page 62: Technology and Student Affairs](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070520/58f08e4b1a28ab792f8b4581/html5/thumbnails/62.jpg)
• Structure of office– support for additional staffing– possible reorganization
• Encourage departments to consider both types of backgrounds (Student Affairs and tech) in hiring decisions
• Need to more intentionally incorporate student development theory/philosophy in technology planning
• Encourage departments to use division planning as a model for their own planning
• Continue to gather and evaluate information regarding other models

Recommendations
1. Designate “technology leadership” as a responsibility for someone in the Student Affairs organization (position or hat)
2. Participate in campus-wide technology planning and initiatives (committee representation)
3. Engage in deliberate technology planning (including budgeting and assessment) for the Student Affairs organization and units within the Student Affairs organization
![Page 65: Technology and Student Affairs](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070520/58f08e4b1a28ab792f8b4581/html5/thumbnails/65.jpg)
Recommendations
4. Recruit staff at all levels invested in using technology5. Embrace some basic technology principles, such as:
• Technology should be used as a tool, and not just for the sake of using it
• Equitable access to technology resources and training should be provided to all staff;
• Digital interactions should complement but not replace personal interactions with students
6. Improve your own “Tech IQ” and comfort level
