Here are some discussion points for CIT 2008. I may break some out into further posts.

• Open Access journals could provide additional funds to encourage faculty to publish to open access.
• World of Warcraft is different than Second Life because it’s based on Ludology Theory.
• There are several portable applications that could be used to develop a lab instance on a flash drive (Buffalo State’s IC2go project using Firefox, del.icio.us, StumbleUpon and Zotero)
• Should Google Books go into the business of the library catalog?
• Should Universities give students a sandbox where they can create their own “personal learning environment?”  Does this include a domain name?
• Should Universities trust more in 3rd party software/hosting?
• We assume too much when expecting students to do research
• We shouldn’t use technology just to use technology; it must have a purpose and enhance what we’re doing

The above bullet points are just starters for discussion.  What are your thoughts?
