  19. eArmyU Discussion • Claudine - UMUC: Interest, but with a team - by end of week or early next week • How work together? • Assuming that the integrator/aggregator - hope for a role for Co-Lab • Other option is to work with a single integrator/aggregator • Mary Beth: Berkeley - Sloan Foundation looking at downstream discussions • Chris: RIT - contact with similar list - Global University Alliance (GUA) - 9 universities - need competencies for modular levels www.adlnet.org

  21. General Discussion • Dan - CMU - Educating the rest of the community or what this is and what it isn't - Off base descriptions • Administrative understanding • Content & repositories - running LMS for 5 years now - significant resistant from faculty to commit to rules based system since it requires preparing ahead of time • Hal - UWSA - modular content - what is the hurdle to Dan's concerns • Chris - building knowledge base - have to do business in a different way - different • Looking forward to figuring out together • Claudine - request from faculty to share modular content - people want to learn from what others have done - discipline focused • Mike - concern about how we identify the meta levels - technical vs. non-technical - Need to figure out how we are to relate and create sub-discussion groups www.adlnet.org
