EDUCAUSE just published their “top 10″ list of teaching and learning issues. The full text can be found at: http://www.educause.edu/apps/eq/eqm07/eqm0732.asp
The list includes:
1. Establishing and supporting a culture of evidence
2. Demonstrating improvement of learning
3. Translating learning research into practice
4. Selecting appropriate models and strategies for e-learning
5. Providing tools to meet growing student expectations
6. Providing professional development and support to new audiences
7. Sharing content, applications, and application development
8. Protecting institutional data
9. Addressing emerging ethical challenges
10. Understanding the evolving role of academic technologists
While this seems focused on academic technology professionals I see many similarities with libraries as well. With a few minor additions/adjustments this list could easily be a “top 10″ for libraries as we move forward.
I’m extremely fortunate to be coming on board of the ACTL this fall. I look forward to working with the group.
