Tim Rudolph | Designing campus systems for real users | Art Center College of Design is a small, private college that has been a leader in art and design for over 75 years. While Art Center has had a tradition of innovative use of technology in education, it has been a late adopter of technology in support of its business processes and campus communication. In recent years Art Center has been undergoing a redevelopment of the core business system; early on in this process the need for a portal was identified and one was implemented. This early implementation of the portal was seen as a technology project and developed internally with very little input from anyone outside of technology. In a college that attracts students and faculty with a strong sense of good design, in both the visual and usability senses, the original implementation was unsuccessful. | Modern Portlets from UC Irvine | At this poster/kiosk session you will get to see the exciting new portlets being developed at UC Irvine. We surveyed our students extensively and found out their needs on campus. You will get an interactive demo of our Announcements Portlet (now a JA-SIG Sandbox portlet) plus others like our "Web 2.0" Todo List Portlet | Power for laptop, internet connection, poster board | ||||
Aleksejs Kirillovs | Using uPortal as Front-End for e-Services of the University of Latvia | Nowadays universities use e-services more and more. While technology and solution are developing, the number and functionality of offered tools increases, which causes a problem on serving these services to end user in a comfortable form. This paper gives an overview of the experience of the University of Latvia in using e-services for managing a study process, providing e-learning (Moodle), planning and development of students' and graduates' career, blogging (Wordpress MU), e-mail services (Webmail) and offering other information. The experience and future plans for using uPortal as a single interface for all e-services will also be presented. |

| Aaron Godert Kuali Identity and Organization Hierarchy Management | Several months ago the Kuali Foundation formed a functional integration committee that looked at points of cross-cutting functionality within the Kuali suite of applications. This committee recommended that two new functional applications should be built to satisfy common identity, access, and organizational management needs. Since then, the Kuali Rice and Kuali Student teams have joined forces to develop new Kuali Rice modules called "Kuali Identity Management (KIM)" and "Kuali Organizational Management (KOM)". These products are slated to provide comprehensive SOA solutions and functional, workflow based, management systems, not only for all of the Kuali applications, but also for general software developer needs. This presentation will review the functionality of the systems as well as the design choices that were made. In addition, the presenters will discuss the pluggable nature of the modules, showing the potential for integration with other IdM solutions such as CAS, Shibboleth, LDAP, and Grouper. |
| Janice Smith | Customizing Portfolio Tools in Sakai | The portfolio tools in Sakai provide great flexibility for ePortfolio implementations but require customization using the tool interface and .xml coding. Out of the box, Sakai portfolio tools don't actually do anything, but with careful design and customization, they support multiple portfolio processes across a variety of contexts. The portfolio tools operate in combination with each other to provide many possible solutions for different educational purposes.

Shoji Kajita | A Lifelong University-wide User ID To Build Lasting | Nagoya University ID has been introduced as a lifelong university-wide user ID since January 2008. The crucial point to issue such a lifelong ID is to realize "one ID per person in the life". We describe the problems and approaches to associate the same ID with the same constituency. |
| Bryan Butler | Three years experience using Moodle in a medical school. Reflections on the benefits and pitfalls experienced to date and an outline of plans for the future? | Moodle has been successfully used at the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland (RCSI) to support healthcare education for over three years. While implementing Moodle strong emphasis was placed on a standard module design, metadata, communication, timetabling, assignment handling, examinations and the delivery of SCORM compliant content. As RCSI does not have a dedicated computer department, external technical assistance was required for the project.
