  4. University AT Website Concept • Challenge: Harvard has a long history in innovations in teaching and learning with technology, but there is no central, sustained mechanism to capture and share the creative work and outcomes across the University and beyond. • Opportunity: Create a website showcasing the role that technology plays in the teaching and learning experience by creating a publicly-accessible website to highlight the range of activities and efforts at the University.

  5. Discussion Questions What is the problem that we are trying to solve? How would you describe the website to co-workers and faculty? Who is the primary audience? Who will use it? How will it benefit them? What is the value of the website to our work? Where should the website sit?

  6. Content and Site Organization • Content • Jargon-free text, images, media, video • Site Organization* • What is the best way to represent and share information on faculty innovations? • Possible approach - one page with content organized by: • Teaching Challenge • Learning Challenge • Solution • Examples • Current Research • Faculty • School * We will leave site navigation and pages aside for a future discussion.

  7. Content and IA Discussion • What is missing? • How can we identify compelling projects? • Is there existing content that we can build upon? • How many projects do we need for the first release to capture audience interest and represent range of innovation?

  8. Communication Plan • Draft communication to be customized by Schools • Schools reach out to targeted faculty • AcTS works with Schools to aggregate and organize content • AcTS populates website and edits content • Faculty review for refinement • Shine light on launch: HACC, CIO, Gazette, School-based outlets

  9. Planning Our Work • Begin identifying and aggregating content ASAP • Communication and Outreach to Faculty • Go Live – early March 2013 • Monthly meetings until March • Estimated contribution from members: 3 hours per month for 3 months • Monthly meetings until March • Provide brief updates at full ATM meetings

  13. Digital Harvard Digital Harvard highlights a sample of the University's online academic resources. Our goal: provide quick access for the Harvard community, alumni and general public to a variety of material including online courses, museum exhibits, and innovative instructional technology projects.

  14. HBS Christensen Center for Teaching and Learning To promote and support teaching excellence and innovation within Harvard Business School.

  15. TED We believe passionately in the power of ideas to change attitudes, lives and ultimately, the world. So we're building here a clearinghouse that offers free knowledge and inspiration from the world's most inspired thinkers, and also a community of curious souls to engage with ideas and each other.

  16. Harvard Great Teachers To mark this milestone, the University sponsored a yearlong series of programs and activities that characterize the lively intellectual exchanges that flourish at Harvard. Harvard’s Great Teachers is launched in this spirit of celebration as a platform to share great ideas. For each faculty member we profile, you will find a collection of interrelated videos that, taken together, offer you a portrait of his or her work as a teacher here at Harvard.  

  17. MERLOT MERLOT is a free and open online community of resources designed primarily for faculty, staff and students of higher education from around the world to share their learning materials and pedagogy.
