EMERGING AND DISRUPTIVE TECHNOLOGIES FOR EDUCATION: AN ANALYSIS OF PLANNING, IMPLEMENTATION, AND DIFFUSION IN FLORIDAÂÂ'S ELEVEN STATE UNIVERSITY SYSTEM INSTITUTIONS.
Creator
Bradford, Deborah, Cintron, Rosa, University of Central Florida
Abstract / Description
The purpose of the study was to understand and appreciate the methodologies and procedures used in determining the extent to which an information technology (IT) organization within the eleven member State University Systems (SUS) of Florida planned, implemented, and diffused emerging educational technologies. Key findings found how critical it was that flexibility be given during the planning stages and not rely on standardized models which may or may not be of use any longer. Research also...
Show moreThe purpose of the study was to understand and appreciate the methodologies and procedures used in determining the extent to which an information technology (IT) organization within the eleven member State University Systems (SUS) of Florida planned, implemented, and diffused emerging educational technologies. Key findings found how critical it was that flexibility be given during the planning stages and not rely on standardized models which may or may not be of use any longer. Research also found that the SUS institutions have to be prepared to organize and preserve the deluge of digital data if they intended to remain relevant as a ÂÂ"towerÂÂ" of knowledge transmissions. The literature found that institutions of higher education needed to keep abreast of the new technologies, new pedagogies, and never before open-access concepts because authors found these ideas were converging and producing an unprecedented period of innovation in learning. Furthermore, the implications of perpetual connectivity to information, peers, and teachers garnered a great deal of attention among educational technologists. However, those implications had not been gauged, especially in FloridaÂÂ's SUS institutions. A survey of those institutions regarding how technologies were planned for, implemented logically, and thoroughly diffused, along with lessons learned could potentially save resources and ensure FloridaÂÂ's institutions continue to be on higher learningÂÂ's forefront.

Show moreThe cyberbullying phenomena has been recorded as affecting students and faculty alike in the K-12 and higher education systems. Cyberbullying in higher education has negative effects to the institution and its stakeholders, including faculty turn over and student suicide. While these responses are highly publicized, the effects of cyberbullying on the online classroom remain relatively untouched by researchers. There are very few resources available to faculty who teach online courses for creating strategies to combat cyberbullying in that context. Furthermore, many states, including Florida, defer conduct policies and their enforcement to the individual institution. While there are many aspects of cyberbullying within the online course in higher education that remain unexplored by research, this study seeks to breach the subject by analyzing the policies at Florida public universities. Using document analysis, this study analyzed policies from the 12 state universities capturing the definition of cyberbullying and recommended reporting practices for faculty on cyberbullying from each institution. By framing the results of the analysis through the community of inquiry, this study provides value to faculty seeking to strengthen their online teaching presence through providing clear guidelines established by each Florida institution. It will also provide value to administrators at institutions within the United States who are reviewing their policies addressing online abuse and cyberbullying by identifying to common definitions currently used within public institutions.

In 1946, the Ringling Museum of Art came under Board control, continuing up to 1959 when a separate board was established for its administration. In 1948, the Florida State College for Women became Florida State University. Florida Agricultural and Mechanical College for Negros became Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University in 1953. A report from the newly established University of South Florida appears in the 1956/1958 volume. Planning for Florida Atlantic University is reflected in the 1960/1962 volume followed by a report from its president in the 1962/1964 volume.
