making it happen - at indiana university
Opportunities to enhance students' educations through use of information technology are often missed because students are unaware that the services and resources exist.At Indiana University a unified and rich array of technology is available to our over 100,000 students on our eight campuses. Even so, the annual technology user survey, distributed randomly to a subset of the University community, demonstrates that we need to do much more to increase awareness about information technology tools available."Making IT Happen," an annual campaign to enhance information technology awareness was initiated to address this need. The event takes place across all Indiana University campuses. The design and planning of the event is done by the Communications and Planning Office which is affiliated with the Office of the Vice President for Information Technology. Staff based in both Bloomington and Indianapolis teamed up to brainstorm a blueprint for the event. This effort has resulted in a unified execution and in minimized planning time on the part of the regional campuses.This paper describes the processes we went through to arrive at our current model which is both flexible enough to leverage unique strengths yet unified to work on all of the Indiana University campuses.
