Objectives

Survey

·         The communication process needs to be clarified.  Pedagogy team will bring issue to entire ITLT for discussion at the next meeting. 

·         Reviewed and modified survey items.  Survey will be presented to entire ITLT for approval at the next meeting.

·         Both full and part time faculty need to participate in survey and will be conducted through Groupwise? and on-line? (I am not sure whether we clarified this or are we discussing this at the ITLT meeting?)

·         Need a letter to describe the purpose of the survey.  The letter should include:

o        Clarification that this survey is focused on the use of the Internet in learning.  We need to differentiate this survey from the SIET 4 survey.

·         Identification of ways to enhance the use of Internet as a learning/teaching tool.

Budget
