Informal collaborative learning spaces

Student Affairs can impact student learning by providing the appropriate mix of technology within our facilities.  We have done a good job by providing wireless in most of our larger public spaces, but what else can be done, who can we collaborate with to ease the cost, is there information to help guide our ideas on what to do next.  The 2009 FACAC Student Survey Report can help guide our decisions by understanding what students are doing with the technology they have and the technology provided to them. Students were asked about laptop ownership, computer labs, wireless access and gaming to name a few.  As the Division builds its strategic plan and the 2010/2011 budget, this survey and the Informal Learning Spaces Vision Document can provide us with some important data.
