Conference Week 2

Reflecting on Session 2

WOW! Session 2 was more challenging than Session 1. I was familiar with the most of the technology discussed. Most of the conference discussions were informative and helped me to remember specific details of the technology I use at work. This session included IT related topics such as Best Approach for Technology Refresh, Keeping up with Storage Requirements, and Computers Improve/Reduce Productivity. I could argue both sides for the productivity discussion, but I did not have the energy. My most difficult post was thinking about technology 10 years from now. I have a hard enough time keeping up with technology at work and home, and thinking that far in advance was not easy.

The Study Group worked well in deciding what are the three cases we were interested. We have not selected who the representative for the group is just yet; nor have we decided on who is doing what. I want to be the person who puts it all together, if possible. And, because I have to, review the content.

I finally took some time to look at the Student Union and the Administration sites.

My overall thoughts for Session 2 is that learning about the technology is not difficult but being inventive is not always easy for me.
