The new draft goals (1-3) for
the Five Year Plan were discussed.
John S. was to continue to refine the goals.
Discussion aimed at prioritizing
technology acquisitions occured. Lab
Needs and
Network Needs were presented.It
was recommended that another laptop cart, wireless laptops, wireless hub be
aquired to compliment the multimedia capacity of the identified classrooms.
This was considered a a high priority. Continuing to upgrade the lab machines
was seen as second to laptops. This "classroom model" was endorsed
by the group. Additional RAM for faculty machines was mentioned.
The priority if "extension
dollars" become availablle was the investment in faculty development
for "distributed learning." The suggestion was to apply resources
to bring in nationally recognized facilitation for informing, improving and
creating a research base for our "alliance" faculty and facilities.
(goal 1)
It was agreed by the group that
the wheeled podium pictured in the Multimedia
Classroom document be aquired for each of the classrooms.
A nondebatable motion to adjourn
was made, seconded, and approved by action of foot.
