Agenda / Minutes

Announcements

Blackboard library tab: Usability testing done in summer 2011 - a qualtrics survey of less than 20 students. We will review later and decide on any changes to the links on the tab for next semester. Does the library tab get used (what are the stats)? Do we want to do another round of the survey with our classes this Fall? Tony will follow up.

Brainstorming activity on instructional technology

We brainstormed for 10 minutes about ideas for instructional technology. What do we want to do if the sky's the limit?

• infrastructure for module videos
• who? Dedicated group in the library?
• fold technology into instruction discussions
• ask AT to join the discussion
• what if holly and Amy work with instructional librarians on a grant funded project?
• forums about what works in the classroom, workshops
• LIPP, how can this be used to work on technology in the classroom
• communication and relationships with campus partners: this committee be a liaison to AT; rep from AT on Instruction? Or CTE?
• AT and CTE multimedia in the classroom session
• 8 tracks in CTE certificate, add info comp to this?

Discussion Group

Suggestions:

• Rotate article ideas and leaders of discussion
• Add article links to wiki
• Use a Refshare account - join with info lit taskforce bibliography? Demo refshare at next meeting.
