That is a very broad goal. Can you tell us what sort of assistance your faculty have been asking for, and what you think might help them? My particular piece of the puzzle is Open Educational Resources under Creative Commons CC-Sharealike licenses, so that teachers and students can improve them. The rationale is not only that, but the fact that computers running Free/Open Source Software with OERs cost much less than printed textbooks. If OERs are of interest, you might like to talk to Wayne Macintosh of OERu/OER University, and check out my link below. However, I keep up with how my piece fits in with the rest of the pieces, so I might know others whom you should talk to. What else? Subject-specific tools and methods? Moodle, MOOCs, Open Access, publishing and collaboration tools...? -- Edward Mokurai (默雷/निशब्दगर्ज/نشبدگرج) Cherlin Silent Thunder is my name, and Children are my nation.
