Of Portals, Policies, and Poets - Rick Bunt and Lea Pennock, Educause Quarterly
When we think about better ways of doing business at a university, the spur is often some new and compelling technology. Indeed, technology offers abundant scope for radical improvement to our processes. If we simply change our processes in response to evolving technology, though, we miss a valuable opportunity to reflect on the continuing relevance of the policies behind the processes and to review and reaffirm the institutional principles they serve. Introducing a campus portal is a terrific case in point for the effect that a technology project can have as a catalyst for institutional reflection and change.
