I recently attended the Instructional Technology Council Conference in Fort Worth. Much of the conference was centered around respecting that students have digital identities before they enter school and ways schools can promote true collaboration. There was suggestion that the LMS should do more to allow students to publish from the Web 2.0 tools that they use before they become a student and that may have more value than the tools ion the LMS.
The opening keynote speech was well done. It was presented in the format of the Late Show and had several clips. The presentation as streamed and can be accessed at http://salesdemo.mediasite.com/mediasite/Viewer/?peid=1c13bc753bfe4040aec4a67aba5f01f1 If you do decide to watch this make sure you get to the segment at the end that has a description of the three types of zombies that exist in higher ed. It is one that people trying to deliver truly collaborative learning situation should know about.
