RE: CSS FY2010 Q2 Report Final Draft
Pat,
Thanks for the including the DLC-based training line. However, it’s not entirely accurate to say that Exchange was 22% of our training volume. What the data showed is that 22% of our training was done at the client’s on-campus location (and this is the point that we’d like to highlight). Of that 22%, a majority is Exchange, but not all. Does this make sense?
I’m off to a set of meetings, but will be back in N42 this afternoon if you want to talk.
Thanks
-Steve

SUBJECT: AUX 2010 Q2 Report - DRAFT
Elaine:
Here is the AUX Q2 report. We have asked Kathleen Monagle, the assistant dean of the Disabilities Services Office, to review the final Accessibility and ATIC related items to ensure that we don't inadvertently breach student confidentiality (she requested that we remove or rephrase one item from the earlier draft). So, there may be some additional updates tomorrow...
Application User Experience (AUX) Q2 Accomplishments:
• Continuing our focus to seamlessly integrate into the IS&T service delivery process, AUX remained engaged in the early engagement pilots -- including, but not limited to, MIT Business Intelligence (MITBI/RAFT), the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (a collaboration with OSP), Next Generation Learning Management Systems, and the Appointment Process Redesign. The results of these pilots have begun to quantifiably demonstrate the value of early engagement from traditional usability measures to improved planning frameworks.
• Implemented Google Analytics on the IS&T website to allow for the analysis and subsequent improvement of one of IS&T’s primary communication channels
• To further the goal of helping individuals find relevant information in a faster and more efficient manner, we gathered requirements from the Service Desk and users across MIT to introduce the newest information search wizard, focused on certificates.
• In support of MIT’s energy initiative, IS&T retired print newsletters and brochures in FY2009. Since this was a major source of marketing for the training organization, the team completed the development of a more comprehensive marketing and communications strategy focused on emails and web based communications.
• Delivered rich training and documentation in support of new Windows 7 and Microsoft Office releases, in addition to updating documentation related to the Microsoft Campus Agreement.
• Supported the Exchange Email & Calendaring roll-out through the delivery of 25 training events and the publication of 80 pages of on-line policy, educational, and procedural documentation.
Key Goals for Q3 (e.g., items outside of our ongoing operational responsibilities):
• Partner with the Office of the President to develop and implement a process to ensure future Institute wide publications (e.g., Task Force Report) are accessible to the entire MIT population
• Partner with IS&T’s Mobile Devices team to create and publish the accessible features for MIT recommended Mobile Devices
• Analyze data on Institute usage of the information search wizards
• Enhance and market the online class catalog by introducing the new training topic pages and providing self-paced learning tools
• Early engagement with IS&T Communications on the creation of the IS&T News Page to ensure adequate usability, accessibility, and educational materials
• Requested to co-lead an initiative to define a framework (aka menu of options) for Institute certifications. Partnering with RACC to leverage our framework to develop and implement a certification program around Sponsored Research Administration.
Depending on how we write the introductory section, some of the accomplishments could be lumped into a more generic CSS or IS&T set of successes (e.g., rollout of Windows 7, Exchange rollout, etc).
Please let me know if you have any questions
Thanks
-Steve
