\n<\/strong>Approved<\/p>\n
\nDiscuss what to ‘publish’ from previous site on our new WordPress site (Craig)
\nCIS members have no objections to just move former Listserve content to this new Wodpress site<\/p>\n
\nATSC meeting on e-portfolios (examples: repertoire of music students, creative writing). What should e-portfolios serve? Admin, teaching, or service-based learning? Do we need a uniform tool? Do we need a new position? Current intent is to benchmark to later reach a decision. ATSC considerations: Google\u2019s application? (see \u201cDigication\u201d) Other experiments at AU. Moving forward with pedagogical and legal obligation in mind.<\/p>\n
\nCIS Decision: Point ATSC to our discussion, considerations, and recommendation.<\/p>\n
\nRewriting of committee-faculty relations in faulty manual could be relevant to CIS.<\/p>\n
\nRegarding non-student facing activity to be moved off the Quad, specifically to the law school, when it moves out. This move is motivated by the following question: How can this building best service the needs of students and faculty?
\nThe following services were identified as candidates for a move:
\n1)\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Technical services (buys, processes, makes books available in collection). Needs: space, loading docks, elevators.
\n2)\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Archives and special collections: few use it and those who do, will be able to
\n3)\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Who else is moving there? Should something from the library be moved if so? (e.g. potential of SETH moving there) \uf0e0 library developed relevant \u2018if statements\u2019
\nCIS questions: Do these moves meet the underlying needs of library and affected faculty? Implications for morale? Does it affect library functioning, sense of community? Will video collection move?
\nAnswers: Clear benefit is that more of the library on the Quad with be available to students and staff. Special collections access will be built into that model. Library is very intentional about the model and had examined models in other places. No, video collection will not be moved.<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>Chris proposes for CIS to adopt a resolution called \u201cCIS Resolution on Adoption of Fair information Use Principles\u201d; draft statement is presented to CIS in writing
\nMotivation: The proposal aims to be the equivalent to a privacy statement of an agency.
\nCIS discussion: More discussion is needed to cover it all and competently. Examples: What about emails from faculty to program directors regarding a student\u2019s performance? What about library records of a student? Such a privacy statement could make communication about students more difficult. Students aren\u2019t consumers. We should be more deliberate about trying to identify the harms this statement is to address.
\nCIS Decision: Keep the paperwork on this resolution and return to it during the Spring.<\/p>\n
\nMonica reports back on how CIS concerns about BYOD statement were finalized in the 2012-13 ATCS report, transmitted from then chair Mary Hanson to Scott Bass on May 2, 2013 (p. 4)
\nFindings: CIS concerns regarding BYOD were taken into account; CIS will monitor this agenda item and check on compliance with our recommendations\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
