A reminder of the deadline for the community consultation that is part of a project commissioned by Eduserv on the use of SharePoint in the HE sector (www.northumbria.ac.uk/sharepoint_study) – Monday 9 November 2009.

The aim of this online consultation is to capture the reactions of a wide range of HE stakeholders (i.e. managers, students, researchers, learning technologists, lecturers, administrators and vendors) to SharePoint. This will build on the data from a literature review and telephone survey of IT Directors. We would welcome responses to three questions about the IMPACT and potential FUTURE USE of SharePoint in HEIs.

Details of the consultation are at: http://www.northumbria.ac.uk/sd/academic/ceis/re/isrc/themes/rmarea/eduservsp/SP_HE_cons/

The questions and how to contribute are at: http://www.northumbria.ac.uk/static/worddocuments/ceis/SP_cons.doc

Many thanks in anticipation
