The Information Mountain
There is a growing mountain of research. But there is increased evidence that we are being bogged down today as specialization extends. The investigator is staggered by the findings and conclusions of thousands of other workers - conclusions which he cannot find time to grasp, much less to remember, as they appear.
Selection by association, rather than by indexing, may yet be mechanized. One cannot hope thus to equal the speed and flexibility with which the mind follows an associative trail, but it should be possible to beat the mind decisively in regard to the permanence and clarity of the items resurrected from storage.
Wholly new forms of encyclopedias will appear, ready-made with a mesh of associative trails running through them ...

Course Management Systems Poll: What are the benefits of Course
Management Systems* ?1. Anywhere / Anytime Access to Courses2. Automation of Administrative functions
(Grading, Class Rosters, etc.)
3. Organization of content (Syllabi, drop boxes, course materials)
4. More effective learning5. Collaboration (Chat,
Bulletin Boards, Email, Webinars)
* Also called Virtual Learning Environments and Learning Management Systems

CourseWork (Stanford) http://aboutcoursework.stanford.edu/advantages.html
Advantages: Why Use CourseWork?
Reasons to use Stanford's Web-based Web Site Development and Distribution System.
1. Web site management is simple and quick, including: • Self registration for students. (No one has to create student lists.) • Section sign-ups. • Links to Registrar's class lists.
2. CourseWork manages the distribution and collection of assignments. • Students can submit any type of document for a problem set, essay assignment, or project. • Instructions for any type of assignment can be posted. • Web-based quizzes with multiple choice and short answer questions can be easily created, distributed, scored, and
returned. 3. The system provides privacy and security.
• Student, TA, Faculty,Guest roles have different levels of access to the Course Web site. • SUNet IDs and passwords are used for access to all sites. • Faculty control student registration. They can create class lists or allow students to register online. Self-registration can
be closed at any time. 4. CourseWork's information management tools are quick and easy-to-use. CourseWork:
• Includes an Email/Web announcement system. • Provides simple file uploads for class handouts, syllabi, images, articles, and other course materials. • Is integrated with the Leland Systems class Web server, so Web-based materials from previous courses can be linked to
the system. • Has a link to library systems for e-reserves.
5. A permanent record of course materials is always accessible. CourseWork: • Automatically archives all class material. • Allows easy search and retrieval of all class material.
6. CourseWork has professionally maintained servers that are: • Maintained 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. • Backed up automatically.

BenefitsStellar course management system supports teaching and learning on the web. Instructors get an easy way to share class materials and take care of time-consuming administrative tasks. Students get round-the-clock access to materials, discussion boards, and online homework submission.
A Stellar class website provides a simple and reliable online environment for instructors to do the following:
• Add and manage a wide variety of multimedia class materials without having to learn HTML
• Manage class website membership automatically with official data from the Registrar, and become acquainted with students through photos from the Card Office
• Save time on administrative tasks by managing homework submissions and letting students choose sections on the class website
• Communicate easily with students through announcements, email, and threaded discussions

OnCourse (Indiana)
Oncourse is an online course management system (CMS) developed at Indiana University. It permits faculty and students to create, integrate, use, and maintain Web‑based teaching and learning resources. For students, Oncourse offers content and learning tools through a single, consistent Web interface. For faculty, Oncourse provides a framework for building teaching materials without requiring knowledge of programming or HTML. A unique feature is that course and individual user Web sites are automatically generated as information is updated in university databases.

Making a Significant Difference
POLL: What has the most potential to significantly improve learning?
1. More access to more courses? (MIT Open Course Ware Initiative)
2. More effective access to information? (“The Right Stuff at the Right Time in the Right Way”)
3. More effective ways to share knowledge? (“What you know is what you can generate*”)
4. Cyberspace Immersion? (Gaming, Simulations, Twitch speed, 24/7 mobile access, …)
5. Better Learning Environments? (Constructivism, Learning Outcomes, Assessment, ...)

Service Oriented Architectures
Problem: Monolithic Systems are
Easy to Conceive but hard to Make Work
Large systems are hard to maintain
Integrations are costly and clunky
With proprietary methods information is often unavailable or inaccurate
Result: Users are frustrated
Solution: Modularize Replace functionality with
services Rely on open standards for
exchanging data Create community
standards for exchanging information

Formulating Frameworks
POLL: Suppose you had to identify the services needed for supporting a learning environment at your institution:
1. You would not know what to do.2. You would invent something completely new.
3. Your answer would apply only to your
institution.4. Your answer would apply to any similar
institution.
