September 17, 2009 - CETET and BlackBoard Updates

Regular Business: Introductions were given by Dr. Jon Anning welcoming everyone back from the summer break. A survey

was then distributed that allowed all TLTR members to voice their interests in several topics that can potentially be available

for discussion throughout the academic year. This allowed TLTR to focus in on areas of specific interest to its members.

Presentation: Dr. Danette Dimarco started the meeting to enlighten the individuals of TLTR on any changes and progress

that has been made through CETET in conjunction with TLTR. Many topics were discussed such as teaching circles.

Brian Danielson then took over and discussed that the BlackBoard contract will be ending at the end of June of 2010 and task

forces will soon be created to determine interests and likes of different Learning Management Systems. Other topics were

discussed such as creating a plan for emergency situations such as if H1N1 spread through campus, how would SRU handle

the situation and ensure that professors can still adequately present their course information.

New Business: Simeon Ananou will be presenting at the next meeting on October 15, 2009 during Common Hour. The

meeting will be held in the Special Collections Room of Bailey Library. Hope to see you there!
