Higher Education and Content Management

 

We at Eduserv are conducting some research into the needs of Higher education (to be followed by  cultural and government) and their demands for Content Management. 

We’re not so much looking the solutions that institutions use, what we really a interested in the features, functions and future needs of the institutions and what they look for when they are considering a CMS, and indeed what comprises they are forced to make when choosing.

We’re considering the usual needs for a CMS, ease of editing, compliance, migration, workflow, DM and KM integration. But also thinking about interoperability, VLE's and MLE's and course management, what is needed to support students, staff and partners when using HE facilities.

Content management should be a great enabler but only when it meets the needs of the institution *and* the needs of the users, are HE’s getting what they need, or even need what they are asking for?
