Trends in Current Issues, Y2K–2005 - Leslie Maltz, Peter B. DeBlois, and the EDUCAUSE Current Issues Committee, Educause
Desktop computing, distance education, and ubiquitous computing no longer appear among the top-five, while funding IT continues as top challenge, security continues to grow in importance, and research support emerges. What’s hot now? What was hot just after the Y2K rant and rave? What’s changed? In addition to looking closely at results of the 2005 EDUCAUSE Current Issues Survey,1 this article considers six years’ worth of trends as measured by what campus leaders have seen as the most critical IT challenges in higher education. Current Issues 2000–2005 EDUCAUSE inaugurated its annual Current Issues Survey in 2000 by asking the primary representatives, typically CIOs, of its member institutions to identify up to three critical IT issues (five starting in 2004) from among 30 to 40 in response to each of four questions (see Table 1).
