Environmental Scanning Defined

At Brookdale Community College, environmental scanning is a planned purposeful process to gather and share information within the college community. The external environment, including social, technological, environmental, economic and political factors, is examined to identify trends or events which could have future implications for the college. By understanding these forces of change, effective responses may be developed in order to plan for the future, identify challenges, be aware of opportunities and gain competitive advantage.

Horizon Report -- 2010 -- Emerging Technologies In Higher Education

The Horizon Report, an ongoing annual publication of the EDUCAUSE Learning Initiative and the New Media Consortium, has issued its 2010 edition.  In each issue of these reports, six emerging technologies or practices are described that are likely to enter mainstream use on campuses over the next one to five years.  Do you see something in the latest edition which is related to your academic division or service area at Brookdale?  Do you see something new you would like to explore?  Mobile computing, open coursework, and electronic textbooks are three of the technologies discussed in this report.
