• Design your learning context with integration with your SIS and group administration in mind. • Make sure you understand how templates work in Vista, and how files are linked between templates and sections. • Many faculty will resist change. Faculty support and training is critical. • Vista requires the support and coordination of many different kinds of people across the organization (database administrators, application administrators, instructional designers, faculty & student technical support, organization administrators, faculty trainers, etc.). Good communication between these entities is critical. • Make sure you have a good backup and restore plan for disasters (database backups and section archives). • Some of the specific problems we've faced include LDAP authentication issues, integration problems with SIS, portal, and other campus information systems, course template linking problems, and end-of semester change management.
