(~awills) Perhaps use the word Advocacy (or maybe Management) for this track name? The description could include things like "evangelism, governance, and other topics that don't fit into developing or using." I do like the word Advocacy. I think a description which includes awareness, incentivizing, education and governance would be very helpful (Some conferences put these in a "Leadership" track). |
The following are the tracks we used last year.
- Awareness and Advocacy
- Design and Development
- Deployment and Integration
- Expanded Solutions
- Getting Started
- Leadership and Future Directions
- Teaching, Learning, Portfolios, and Research
- Technical Management

Design and Development
Sharing is critical among communities creating open software. Please share development projects, design approaches, usability and accessibility improvement plans and projects. Topics may also include best practices in design and development approaches that could be incorporated into software in the future.
Deployment and Integration
Presentations for people who need to make applications work on campus: developers, content providers, team leaders, and evangelists. In particular, we would like to highlight work that integrates community source projects within enterprise infrastructure, and with each other.
Expanded Solutions
For most organizations open source software is one important component of a complex ecosystem of systems and tools supporting teaching, learning and research. Please share your experiences and successes integrating solutions to expand the benefit to your faculty and students.
Getting Started
Sessions for newcomers: from faculty to developers, administrators to trainers, students to tech support. Learn the steps to evaluate, plan, deploy, promote, and support software on your campus.
Leadership and Future Directions
Open software is an element within your broader strategy and goals. How are institutions using open software to achieve strategic goals? What changes and opportunities on the horizon should be influencing the direction of the community? What other trends, advances and challenges should become part of our community planning and dialogue?
Teaching, Learning, Portfolios, and Research
Technology to improve the quality of teaching, learning, and research. Please share case studies of effective teaching, research and collaboration practices as well as new approaches to technology-enabled teaching and research.
