3. Enterprise SIG meeting, University of Nottingham 20 April 2007 ADoM 15 months Domain map (new name for reference model) Previous RM projects: COVARM, eP4LL, FREMA, LADIE, PLE, XCRI

4. Enterprise SIG meeting, University of Nottingham 20 April 2007 Domain model…. (pace Bill Olivier) Reusable domain knowledge Basis for practitioners to: Agree problem areas Collaborate with developers Ensure coherence across ‘family’ of applications Save redoing the same work (differently) each time

5. Enterprise SIG meeting, University of Nottingham 20 April 2007 The Role of Domain Models (Bill again) Domain Models form a Bridge between Users’ Needs & Services A Domain Model shows how the needs of its practitioners can be met by a set of Services Reference Implementations, Demonstrators, Institutional SOAs User Needs Domain Model Services Design A Domain Model may used to help build Reference Implementations, Demonstrators and/or Institutional Service Architectures

6. Enterprise SIG meeting, University of Nottingham 20 April 2007 Domain Models & Engagement (a bit more Bill) How are needs to be identified? not just for an Institution, but across a Sector? Need to work with Users and Practitioners Domain Experts and broader Stakeholders To Map and Model their Domain, so as to: Reflect on current Practices and Processes Identify Problem Areas & New Opportunities Set out what is common across multiple applications, as a basis for identifying services

7. Enterprise SIG meeting, University of Nottingham 20 April 2007 ADoM: the process Process modelling: workshops and interviews Draw up initial map Engage community to refine model Wiki SIG Other? Produce demonstrators

8. Enterprise SIG meeting, University of Nottingham 20 April 2007 ADoM: the outcomes Blueprint for shared best practice Feed into further work Add to e-Framework Feedback on Domain Map concept

9. Enterprise SIG meeting, University of Nottingham 20 April 2007 DELIA Delivering Enhanced Learner Information for Admissions 21 months

10. Enterprise SIG meeting, University of Nottingham 20 April 2007 DELIA: context Schwartz/Wilson reviews HE admissions review: Delivery Partnership/SPA Specifying an ePortfolio/eP4LL/XCRI work Scoping studies (Fairness, applicant feedback)

11. Enterprise SIG meeting, University of Nottingham 20 April 2007 Course Entry Profiles 100% mandatory from Sept 2008 What scope for a common framework/structure? Link to structured personal statements/ePortfolio evidence How will admissions staff use enhanced data?

12. Enterprise SIG meeting, University of Nottingham 20 April 2007 DELIA: the recipe Explore pre-admissions practices (not just tests!) Structured course entry profiles: development and use (improve self-matching and assessment of aptitude and potential) Define business processes for handling enhanced data Requirements engineering through prototyping With ADoM, demonstrate potential of electronic admissions Propose UCAS security model for ePortfolio- based admissions (with PortisHEad)

13. Enterprise SIG meeting, University of Nottingham 20 April 2007 DELIA: method Capture practice Outline technical spec Trialling (staff and students) Prototyping Scenarios and use cases
