Improving the technical capabilities of our students.

schmittaf 10 years ago updated by Margaret Fako 10 years ago 2
PowerPoint, Keynote, iMovie, etc.
Need to figure out how to provide думhome economicsдуќ training to students with a technology basis.
Perhaps a class or series of classes at the beginning of the year to get everyone the basics they need to be successful technologically.
Tutoring for technology skills?
Link into digital citizenship.
Could be related to the online seeking course that Sandra does.

New Interlochen Website

schmittaf 10 years ago updated 10 years ago 0
After three years, it is time for the Interlochen website to be renovated. There are many components to this need:

-- Track people beyond the CPC model.
-- Applicants and inquiries. (Campaign tracking - multi-channel)
-- Need the analytics that this information will provide to optimize budget and reach.
-- Not just on the website but across all media.
-- Over 16K pages / content on the site today.
-- Need better capability for management of videos, photos, and audio.
-- Information architecture puzzle that needs to be solved.
-- Copyright question lingers.
-- Need to rationalize what is on the site vs. Convio, Aspen, Enrollment Rx, Patron Edge, etc. (e.g. virtual web site)
-- And provide as seamless a solution as possible for different users.
-- Freshness of content needs to be maintained and measured.
-- How do we integrate the creation of content within the process of its development?
-- With appropriate workflows to ensure editorial quality.
-- And perhaps model the actual flow of information / content throughout all the media channels and departments either is derived from or influences.
-- Interact with current users of the website.
-- Who is Interlochen on the web? Departments, people, personalities, faculty, etc.

Phones!

schmittaf 10 years ago updated 10 years ago 0
Is it possible to add the phone extension to the email account name when pulling up an email address? For example, I am brand new. In order to find a phone number, I have to go to an outdated people finder to find someone's extension. It would be really cool if I could search their name and have their extension come up as well. Thanks for considering!

Online Virtual Course Strategy

schmittaf 10 years ago updated by Margaret Fako 10 years ago 1
Online courses and education will eventually have an impact on our curriculum, either because we will be offering them or taking advantage of them.

Even if it is just to enable students who are traveling / ill to be able to keep up with their coursework here on campus.

Or enabling students at Interlochen to take other courses virtually to free up time for other activities.

Overall Data Integrity

schmittaf 10 years ago updated 10 years ago 0
What are our processes and systems to ensure that our data is as clean and accurate as possible?

Perhaps asking for the data check process to be completed during the registration process is not the most effective time to do so.

Swipe Cards

schmittaf 10 years ago updated 10 years ago 0
As in DeRoy, though not yet perfect.
Door alarms in DeRoy are not terribly effective or even extant.
Residence halls, basements with practice rooms, etc.
Better lock system in general: most doors seem to be open at potentially unsafe / inappropriate times.

Publish / share content

schmittaf 10 years ago updated by Margaret Fako 10 years ago 1
Content can be shared -- though of course the normal copyright laws apply.
Original content and classic theatre = good.
New material and translations = bad.
Simply need to do the rights work needed if the owner of the rights is amenable.
do we need a system to track what rights weду»ve procured?
Every year there is some content that we could broadcast.
We do have recordings of most of the productions over the last 20 years (DVD and VHS).
