Well the great work of Sam has paid off and the decision has been made to go with this as our logo (although we are checking with Marketing to ensure there are no problems with using this from a corporate perspective). It is a simple on button using the Staffordshire University red in both the text and the button itself. Let us know if you like it!
Yesterday Mark, Sam and I met with two of the initiatives involved in Enable, the Course Information/ Intranet Project lead and the lead for the Negotiated Award in FCET. The notes from these meetings are on another computer so will be looking at posting about them later in the week. Today I had my weekly meeting with Mark where we discussed the project scope and the criteria needed to identify the position of initiatives within Enable. This included looking at 4 types of projects
- Transformative,
- Improving,
- Facilitating and
- Supporting.
Those that fitted into 1 & 2 are either spokes or exemplars, those in 3 could be spokes, or not, depending on their nature, and those around supporting curriculum design and development were deemed to be out of scope. We also discussed further the outputs based on work done at the JISC meeting. This is so a leaflet can be put together for project dissemination and includes:
Goals
- Curriculum design development process which is coherent, responsive, customer focused, joined up etc
- Technologies in place to facilitate/ support in a flexible and responsive way
- Appropriate level of control and minimum bureaucracy, in terms of change process want a managed approach to change initiatives.
Outputs
- Process holes
- Process improvement opportunities
- Lack of data
- Process & system connectivity issues
As a result of these we should spawn new spokes, which help formulate the GOALS.
This work was discussed during our meeting with Cathy Gilbert who, from previous roles, has experience in programme management and has been very helpful in the area of supporting documents for this project.
