LET’S TARGET SCHOOLS!

• No money for IT

• Few technicians (they are usually not decision makers)

• Poor motivation for change

ON THE OTHER HAND

• A lot of unnecessary administrative work with students

• New services, that need provision

• And after all more and more demanding kids/parents

LET’S DEFINE AAI MESSAGES!

• We would like to create a brochure

• Now we need appropriate messages

• We can “borrow” some ideas from GARR, CARNET, ourselves

GARR

• Single access to shared services.

• reducing the number of passwords to remember

• simplifying access to online resources, whereverwhere you are

• cost reduction for the service management

• greater control over authentication and authorization

CARNET

• Do you need access to a wireless network, scholarly bibliography, a system for e-learning, a web application or internal School web site?

• AAI enables use hundreds of different network services and applications from connecting to the Internet, to complex applications, such asA system for distance learning.

ARNES

• arnesAAI is your universal user name

• ArnesAAI allows secure access to applications with a single username and password

• 3 necessary steps to login

• Single brochure targeting all our target groups

• Beside the AAI web page only PR material for now

LET’S GET TO WORK

• We split into 4 groups targeting:• Headmasters (decision makers)• Technical staff (if any)• Teachers• Students/Parents

• We report our ideas

I know it’s early, but …
