Module 7 Reflection

Currently, the district I am studying has a separate district education plan and technology plan. With the crucial role that technology plays in the daily functions of at the global level, the practice of planning education and technology separately is obsolete. It may keep a district afloat for NOW, but it does not prepare for the FUTURE OF STUDENTS or the district as an enterprise.  

In their article, Exploring the Future of Enterprise Architecture: a Zachman perspective, Lapalme et. al.  propose three future “Grand Challenges”  that organizations using EA will need to consider and plan for: 1) Increased Complexity and Intensity, 2) New Realities and 3) Evolving Enterprise Architecting.  (Lapalme et. al, 2016) In this article, truly challenging concerns that organizations will have to face new realities, complexity and changing/evolving architectures of the future are discussed and the impact will be great. The article goes on to provide potential practices for coping with these future “Grand Challenges.”  If a district continues to function in the traditional sense of silos without communication, how will it fair when presented with these grand challenges in the near future? Changes and shifts are gaining momentum at a rapid pace due to technology, it can no longer be separate in any function in any organization. ​
