Brainstormers

If someone told you they could offer you Support for learners, teachers and researchers using "Web 2.0" technologies and mobile devices to access institutional systems ... what sort of things would you be asking them for? Please assume that they have reasonable quantities of time and money at their disposal, but that they would really prefer not to use up too much of that time having an argument about what "web 2.0 technologies" means. :-}

Depends enormously on what the "institutional systems" are. Here, that would mean the website (including Blackboard etc), email (we have MS Webmail and a service for Windows Mobile devices), and web access to your filestore. The only thing I can think of which we don't support is being able to run campus software on your own PC.

("CWIS" means "campus-wide information system", or "the intranet" in normal-speak).

If you can imagine it, we've probably got at least three mutually-incompatible systems already doing it. :-}
