As you know, this year we’ve decided to bring in a new guest blogger each month to offer a view from the trenches in education technology — and spark some discussion on key issues. This month’s guest is a leading CIO who has long run his own blog (we’ve pointed to his items in the past). He’ll be posting here a couple of times a week during February, starting with his thoughts on blogging later today.
But first, an introduction. Lev Gonick is vice president for information technology services and chief information officer at Case Western Reserve University and has been named one of the nation’s top information officers by Computerworld and InformationWeek. He founded and is president of OneCommunity (formerly OneCleveland), a project to bring high-speed network services to nonprofit organizations in the university’s region. Mr. Gonick has served on the board of several organizations, including National LambdaRail, the nation’s next-generation advanced-networking research effort, and he has been active in international efforts to use technology to improve education. He earned a Ph.D. in international political economy from York University.
Welcome, Lev.
