Ocotillo Technology Visioning

Perspective
The 1994 bond planning for technology and facilities included no planning (no $) for the impact of the World Wide Web, which since has been the most significant technology impacting what we do.

Under the umbrella of bond planning, Ocotillo and Information Technologies Services (ITS) are sponsoring a series of Technology Visioning Forums that will bring to Maricopa a series of distinguished professionals, who will inspire and challenge our thinking about instructional technology and facilities for learning.

For the next X (3? 5?) years, what is the next "web" we might need to address for the future? What is the learning environment of the future look like? What do models of "hybrid" courses mean for planning? What sorts of technologies are we planning for? What do Learning Objects mean for course developers? How do we provide better physical (and virtual) learning environments?

Each Maricopa college will form a team to participate in the process, leading to a collection of outcomes to be further developed at the year-end Ocotillo Retreat.
