- Groups can start planning a forum at any time without sticking to a rigid time frame.
- There can be asynchronous meeting participation.
Old Business:
Forums: “Using Social Technologies in Instruction”
- will be the topic of a panel discussion involving keynote speakers. Participants will get an overview of various technologies.
- The date of the forum is April 2, 2009 at The University of Illinois—Springfield.
- There was some concern about losing participants for that date due to the various information literacy summits statewide at the end of March and beginning of April. There is a cap on attendance at IL summits, and they attract different crowds, so they probably won’t affect the forum.
Breakout sessions at UIS:
- Breakout rooms will include the auditorium and two other rooms. Participants will choose two sessions and repeat twice.
- Randi will put a call out on the listserv to see who is using what. Examples of social technologies include wikis (Molly), clickers, Libguides, games, podcasting, YouTube etc.
- A glossary of social technology terms should be handed out.
- The Dec. 3 meeting will be a discussion of which technologies, panelists and breakout speakers would work best.
Tutorial Creation Workshops
- The planned dates are be June 5 and 12. The locations discussed were Eastern Illinois University and a location in the northern part of the state, still to be determined.
- This workshop will include information from different software companies and our own experience with tutorials.
- The room for these workshops should be a computer lab with a desk area in the middle.
- There will be a cap of 15 participants per workshop.
- Send any information about tutorial creation (screen casting, storyboarding software etc.) to the listserv.
New Business:
Next conference call: December 3 from 10:00 am—noon.
Respectfully submitted,
Rebecca A. Martin Northern Illinois University
