THE FUTURE IS NOW

(BUT WE DON'T HAVE HOVERBOARDS YET)

CONNECTED

SUSTAINING NETWORKS
Multimedia - through video, podcast and text. Social media type tools are easy to use and require little training and they allow us to connect to like minded people

I can find anything on the web - I can be talking to people all over the world, I just need to know that they exist
Opportunities can be actioned through connections - networks are important

DECIDE YOUR LEVEL

OF INVOLVEMENT
There are different levels of involvement - it doesn't have to be all or nothing. Its about being flexible, adaptable and its also about the university providing opportunities to explore, develop and providing the right infrastructure to engage

ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE

IN THE RIGHT KIND OF ENVIRONMENT
The systems that we have access to and the systems that we need are not necessarily the same. The web allows for connections to be instant but we need the right tools for the job.\

Online assessment and feedback
E-assignment?
Blackboard?

DATA ACCESS

NOT EVERYONE HAS THE ACCESS THEY NEED

TRANSPARENCY

WORKPLACE SURVEILLANCE
As the use of smartphones and mobile devices is on the rise then we need to be mindful of privacy and our university should review and support staff to fully understand how the information we create is used by our institution to inform and predict our own and students behaviour
