An HR Technology Sampler
As I am getting my materials in order for Week 1 of my HR Technology class, I thought I would attempt to compile a list of all the different tools/technologies that will either bt discussed, demonstrated, and in some cases used by the students. Let's see how many I have come up with so far:
ERP - Oracle, PeopleSoft
Time and Attendance - Kronos
Self-service - not sure yet, maybe iEmployee
Talent Management - Halogen Software
Recruiting - All the obvious, but for the sake of this list, Monster, Dice, LinkedIn, HigherEdJobs, Jobvite, SmartRecruiters, visualCV
Collaboration - Wikis, blogs, Idea marketplace, Second Life, RSS
Communication - Twitter, Yammer, SurveyMonkey, CoverItLive
This is just off the top of mind, and after thinking about it, it does seem like a tremendous amount of different technologies and concepts to try and cover in 10 weeks.
What should I emphasize, what can or should be downplayed?
What are the most important technology concepts and lessons to be learned for today's HR leaders?

Good list of Vendors. I have not thought about standalone Employee Self Service for some time as most ERP and Talent Mgmt Vendors now have usable ESS modules. Here are some additional vendors you may want to briefly discuss:
Talent Mgmt: Authoria and SuccessFactors
Recruiting: Taleo and Authoria
SaaS: ADP (can't forget that they have been a SaaS vendor for a long time)
My 2 cents.
Michael,
Those are all excellent suggestions, I find myself really limited by the amount of time I end up having to spend on any one area, couple with the fair amount of time I have to spend on really basic concepts and terminology.
Thanks for the comments,
Steve
