Today in my inbox I was happy to see a notification that we are moving ahead with integrating the DIGICATION platform into our usage here at RISD. Digication is the brainchild of two of our alums, Kelly Driscoll and Jeffrey Yan, and is a course management system that integrates our unique traditions here at RISD of critical thinking and critical making into a Web-based system. Thanks to the folks in our IT department together with the Digication people for moving this along so ably. And special thanks go to RISD’s Associate Provost of Academic Affairs David Bogen for convincing me (at least every other week since I arrived) that this is what we needed to do. -JM
