Greeting colleagues, I’m writing to invite you to be a member of the 2021 Information Security Horizon Report expert panel. I am sure you are familiar with past issues of the Horizon Report (cf. 2019 and 2020<https://library.educause.edu/resources/2020/3/2020-educause-horizon-report-teaching-and-learning-edition>). For 2021, we are excited to add an Information Security edition to the Horizon Report family. As you weigh your decision about joining the expert panel, here are some considerations: * Methodology. At EDUCAUSE, we have been studying and working with the foresight tools from the Institute for the Future (IFTF). A concise summary is available in a recent article<https://er.educause.edu/articles/2019/3/five-principles-for-thinking-like-a-futurist> in the EDUCAUSE Review. In a nutshell, the IFTF’s method consists of identifying trends and signals of change and using them to construct possible scenarios about the future. * Timeline for the panel’s work. The panel will be actively engaged in the Report’s construction from the very end of July through October. We estimate the total time commitment for this project to be 4-8 hours. * Communications. We will be utilizing a listserv as well as a Canvas environment designed for panel engagement and discussion. * We will be conducting a virtual orientation for the members of the panel on July 30, 3-4 pm eastern time. Given the international composition of the panel, we realize that no single time will be convenient for all panelists. We will be recording this session and make the recording available to those unable to attend on 30 July. Those are the main points. I hope you will join us in creating this inaugural edition of the 2021 Horizon Report, Information Security Edition. To officially sign up as a panelist, please complete this informational form<https://www.surveygizmo.com/s3/5680485/Horizon-Report-Information-Security-Panel-Interest-Form>. I’d ask that you complete the form no later than 26 July. Thank you for considering this! Certainly, feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
