Attendees: Holly, Camille, Michael, Nick (phone) Mary (guest), Kathy (guest), Jon (guest), Howard (guest)

Administrative

• Mary asked Nick if he would co-chair the committee with Michael...Nick agreed.
• Name change from Instructional Technology Committee to Learning Technologies Committee

Concept

• Mary, Kathy, Jon and Howard each provided some background on how this committee was formed
• Not necessarily about classroom technology
• think of this group as experts @ Mann --> committee was designed to be the de facto group for subject-based learning (working with subject librarians)

Charge?

• Undefined at the start
• Mary: I think it's easy for a committee like this (open-ended) to not have direction...meet every month but what do we discuss?
• Kathy: Yes, I'd like to see the cycles of education and the group's recommendations in written form

Membership

• What is our sentence? How can the committee cycle and rotate in new members?
• As we begin our discussions, we might realize that we need to pull certain people in

Action Items

• Formulate our charge through series of discussions and brain storming sessions
• Come back to Admin Council in late Feb/early March with our charge
• In the meantime, focus on Bissett Space?

Bissett Space

• How are people using it now?
• Rearrange the furniture?
• It's too dark in there (Comment from faculty member via Howard?)

Miscellaneous

• Kathy: We should be sure to make the right people @ CALS aware of this group's effort (funding)
• How can we fill the void we're left with the lack of A/V staff person?
• User Testing --> Sebastian Carello has multiple licenses for Morae (looking for a place to install them)
