These votes may be distributed in any way you wish – all 10 can go for a single item, 2 for one or more items, or spread out all 10. This will allow you to indicate as a way of indicating the relative importance of the items you select to our foci of teaching, learning and creative expression.
For the first three questions, which focus on emerging technologies, we also ask that for each technology you cast a vote for, you also indicate a likely adoption horizon for colleges and universities – 12 months or less, 2-3 years, or 4-5 years. The final two questions, which focus on trends and challenges require only the distribution of your 10 votes.
