The 2 Faces Of IT In Education -- InformationWeek

The 2 Faces Of IT In Education -- InformationWeek | @ONE for Training | Scoop.it

Blaine Morrow's insight:

"Teaching faculty and IT staff were also united because they agreed that administrative/logistical issues were important but not vital. Although people wanted classes to run smoothly, they weren't strongly committed to any one way for them to run. Very few people became either teachers or technicians because they are passionate about filling out forms and maintaining records."

"Data are no longer simply "numbers in context" (as statistician David Moore famously defined them), stored in static spreadsheets and collected to answer specific research-driven questions. Today, data are dynamic, complex, highly structured collections of pictures, sounds, relationships and -- yes -- numbers. Data sets are vast and, thanks to open-data initiatives such as data.gov, readily available."
