eduWeb 2008 in 140 words - Aligning Web Strategies with Content Management by Daniel Auld, director of Technology Communications at Fordham Law School
July 21st, 2008 by Karine Joly
Note from Karine: This year, I’ve asked all the eduWeb speakers working in universities/colleges to share in 140 words or less the biggest take-away from their presentation or table talk. If you’ve attended this session, feel free to weigh in by posting a comment, a question or a suggestion.
The biggest take away from our presentation is: communicate with your stakeholders.
You need their input on the requirements and you need their buy in on the product selection because they will ultimately be the ones to use the tool. The number one reason people have a “failed” implementation is not because of the tool but because users don’t adopt the tool. So it’s critical to involve your users in every step of the process and avoid making a decision in a vacuum.
