Please welcome Nicole Rhoads of Albion College to the IKE Project.
<http://www.albion.edu/>
"I've also been planning the conversion and integration of several
web-
based systems, including blogs (WordPress), CMS (Joomla), LMS (Moodle)
etc. So far, I've been hoping RSS will do much of the job where an
existing bridge application doesn't work. I'm really excited to hear
more about the expected outcomes of the IKE Project."

Please Regina Cain from MSU Billings. <http://www.msubillings.edu/>
"At MSU Billings we currently have two departments in charge of our
web. University Relations and Information Technology. I work for IT as
a systems analyst.
"We are constantly looking for better ways to simplify our web site
while making sure all the information is at the students as well as
staff's fingers. We are currently working with our Learning Management
System to provide a portfolio to the staff as well as students, along
with that we are looking into how to use technology to help in
assessment.
I would love to share what we have learned as well as pick the brains
of the group to help us in our endeavors. Thank you, Regina Cain"

Please welcome Steve McDonald from Tufts University
"I'm the lead developer on the Spark project. Spark is a a suite of
communication and collaboration tools that includes wikis, blogs,
podcasting, forums, a media markup system and a mapping tool. Soon,
web based conferencing will be integrated. Details are available at
https://spark.uit.tufts.edu/"
I saw a presentation and demo of Tufts Spark at the Campus Technology
conference last week.
<http://tinyurl.com/6x9auj>
<http://tinyurl.com/5gtogw>
My primary impression of the conference was that academic
technologists and campus communicators are looking for easy ways to
surface content objects — that were created in a curricular
environment — so they can be made public, for lifelong portfolios and
to build relationships with future students, alumni, and service
learning partners.
Tufts Spark (and the Digital Commons from Georgetown) seem to be out
in front on pulling together the many ways knowledge objects are
created and shared, and are preparing for a phase 2 which would
include public sharing and tagging.

Welcome to you, Steve, and I look forward to seeing how we can share
our knowledge.
