2. Where the Hype Ends - Success Begins

3. 21st Century Universities
   • Virtual Organizations
   • The Knowledge Marketplace
   • Electronic Commerce
   • Communities of Interest

4. Purposes
   • serve citizens of the state
   • provide diverse educational opportunities
   • learning anywhere, conveniently
   • improve teaching and learning processes

5. Principles
   • Design for effective learning.
   • Support the needs of learners.
   • Develop and maintain the technological and human infrastructure.
   • Sustain administrative and organizational commitment.

6. "I think higher education represents the best blend of age, diversity, technological resources, sophisticated designers and consumers of design. There are going to be much more and better idea-explosions that emanate, reverberate from higher education."

   Michael Schrage

7. "Technology does not drive change. Technology enables change. It’s our collective cultural response to the options and opportunities presented by technology that drives change."
   

   - Paul Saffo

8. "The model to replace industrial age education isn’t clear yet. But the idea that a person stands in front of the room stuffing information into learners like grain into a duck is changing to the idea that teaching is about being a wise companion and advisor."
   

   - Paul Saffo

9. What Works - Using Technology to Support:
   • Communities
   • Just in time learning
   • Rapid communication
   • Mentoring
   • Collaborative work
   • Digital libraries

10. What’s Not Working - Access Issues:
    • Where have all the "girls" gone?
    • Rural
    • Low Income

11. Profiles of "The Least Connected" (from 1997 Census)

12. "These technologies are really much more about creating and managing new relationships than creating and managing old information or new information."

    - Michael Schrage

13. The WWW and Community
    "The Web would be entirely different if it had been based on a more dynamic metaphor than the publishing metaphor."

    "How would the WWW be different if we talked about designing things to support conversations rather than designing to support posting?"

    - Michael Schrage
