Discussion focused on ACCORD relationship to MITCET strategy and goals, the process for joining and leaving ACCORD, and how to insure good customer engagement. One suggestion is to add a "customer" representative from one of the DLC's to ACCORD. It was decided that we should defer any action on that suggestion until we developed better clarity about our own roles and responsibilities and that of the Accordiacs.

- Inputs on key services from the March 18th Accordiacs meeting \ --\- next steps: Identify trends, categorize \ [30 minutes\]
Working from the notes of the March 18 meeting, we focused on agreeing on the criteria that would define "core" services. The initial list was cross-organizationall, breadth, depth, one time v. long term, impact, cost, benefit, prestige/leadership. Steve agreed to draft definitions for each of these criteria for review at the next meeting. Once there's agreement on the criteria, we will then create a matrix using the services identified from the March 18 meeting to test the criteria.

Babi provided an update from the recent meeting of the Image Tools Group. The group decided it would focus on two areas over the next few months: 1. improving the availability of image copyright information and help within the images section of the Teaching w/Technology website, and 2. developing a short questionnaire that can be used when meeting with faculty regarding their image needs and that also might be posted as a short survey at point of use on the TwT website.

- Communication to Accordiacs re ACCORD membership/role changes
- We agreed to provide an update to the Accordiacs on the sponsors meeting, the rotating convening role, ACCORD membership, and recent activities. Steve will draft message.
- Criteria for identifying core servicesDiscussion and updating of draft document continued.
- We agreed that we need to develop a "grading" system, and that we should take the list of services generated from Accordiac meeting in March, consolidate it, and then apply criteria to it. Oliver will create spreadsheet, Babi will draft "grades", and then each of us will apply values to the spreadsheet.
- Accordiac roles/responsibilitiesBrainstormed list of possible roles and responsibilities:
- communicate - 3 way, with each other, to ACCORD, back to their DLC
Wiki Markup - contributing to cross-organizational projects, development of new services
- contribute to building Accordiac community
- provide early user feedback on new service initiatives
- We need to get Accordiacs input on their ideas for roles/responsibilities.
...
- Update on Video project and feedback
- Steve and Oliver shared the latest changes in the draft presentation being prepared for the Council on Educational Technology. Once some additional changes are made, the presentation will be circulated to ACCORD and the video working group for final review. It's expected that the presentation to CET will be made in late September.
- Planning for Sept. 30 Accordiac Meeting
- We brainstormed possible topics for the 9/30 meeting:
- Update on video project
- EdTech Fair
- IS&T's Facult and Student Experience project on creating travel profiles for particular countries
- Image Service Update
- Changes in the Laptop Loaner Program
- Energy Efficiency and Sustainable Computing
- DOS project update
- Update on Institute Wide Task Force Report
- We brainstormed possible topics for the 9/30 meeting:
- Next Steps re core services criteria
- Creation of a value system for the draft matrix that we've created is challenging; should we try a different approach than using a numerical system - maybe categorizing rather than prioritizing? Babi will write up his notes from converstations with Steve Ehrmann from the Teaching, Learning, and Technology Group and share with the group. We decided to discuss what metrics are currently available for each of the services listed on the draft matrix and how we might collect and aggregate them. And we agreed that a key challenge will be to keep the effort simple and manageable.
- Possible agenda for next ACCORD meeting:
- Revisit recommendations from the SOD working group
- Institute Wide Task Force Report
- Feeback from New Faculty Orientation
- Finalize Accordiac Agenda

- Brainstorm on how to move forward with video capture for GIR's
- Vision – for some set of courses and/or classrooms we have infrastructure and process in place to allow faculty to specify prior to the course that they want their course captured and made available to their students at a very low barrier; available to students would be audio, video, presentations, blackboard capture soon after the class; needs to be at a low cost and simple for faculty to do; reusable; processes for archiving
- Lot’s of policy workflow issues to work through
- Turn key options
- Deploy in more classrooms than fewer to avoid scheduling issues
- Focus on 5 largest rooms where GIRS are currently taught for phase 1 – 26-100, 54-100, 32-123, 10-250, 34-101
- What is the minimal “feature” set required for capture?
- read the blackboard
- Good audio
