The pace of change seems to increase relentlessly, especially changes involving information technology. Using your crystal ball, identify and discuss three changes likely to have substantial impact on your school services in the next three year

In these stage of evolution of the earth ,we can't deny that pace of change seems to increase relentlessly, especially changes involving information technology. IT is because many of us are using the new technology as the earth evolve new update with IT/IS were develop so if people doesn't adopt IT change it may behind you in the things going on in this world especially in businesses and firms. Such that our schooling we are aiming of high quality education ,in that we should adopt IT changes for substantial impact of our university.


Information technology (IT) changes rapidly, seriously challenging IT management. In response, many organizations create a formal group of IT professionals to evaluate emerging IT so they can better cope with its change. A survey based on structured interviews was mailed to a nationwide sample of 1,000 IT organizations. Two hundred forty-six respondents provided data to identify categories of coping mechanisms to handle changing IT. Five categories emerged: Education and Training, Internal Procedures, Vendor Support, Consultant Support, and Endurance. Organizations apply Education and Training more extensively than the others. Thus the research contributes to understanding the means by which organizations cope with rapid IT change. The research also found that organizations with a group dedicated to investigating emerging IT cope more extensively, but not more successfully, than do those without one. Thus the research contributes not only by providing an understanding of how organizations cope with rapid IT change, but also by suggesting the need to achieve more from the group charged with emerging IT.
the industries that supply the electronic technology are among the most competitive in the world, striving day and night to launch faster and more powerful systems. Technology strengthens competition, while competition boosts technology. Here is a self-feeding spiral that promotes not merely rapid change, but ever-accelerating change.

Here are my Aspiring Information Technology change :
It is all about system may implement for the school services.

e-Information technology services- IT change in learning process
As I have read information and the some site about Information Technology service in online form and it is implemented to its university of the other country .I found myself to be interested that it could be apply to our university .Well ,as I have already notice higher years has a project that is the same as this e services .These project could be implemented that likely have substantial impact to our university. It is because not only in Institute of computing could use it but also other colleges ,faculties eventually the university itself and may use by the other university.
This E-information technology is a online services of learning information or knowledge. IT contains support documentation and instructions for University and supported software packages. It search capabilities allow you to search for key words related to the information you are interested in finding
This may develop for the easy way of getting university’s IT services that everyone could access

System for the university clinic
Having a system concerning our clinic has a good impact to our university .This would help managing the services of university clinic. We already know that clinic has important role concerning people in the university and we found out that they are use manual way of managing medicines and its services and they can’t entertain student much . The new system would help to manage student, faculties to find time to check up even one semester for knowing our health and avail their services .It would help monitoring the medicines and health equipment.

E voting system
This would help student council in counting of vote and for the student in voting of nominees in our university .It would also help our university in adopting IT change . It may a proud for a university that we, could also avail of e voting services .IT has a big and substantial impact in our university.As I know this system is a project of our classmate in SE .It is a idea concerning our university.
