Goals for Spring 2008:
Done? |
Timeline |
recurring |
Project |
Who's working on it? |
---|---|---|---|---|
|
By end of Spring 2008 |
|
Think about how we could facilitate sharing what is learned at conferences and other events with colleagues. Is this feasible or even desirable to do? |
|
|
By end of Spring 2008 |
|
Think more broadly about Barton Basics changes and enhancements in light of the new world of searching (Vera Multi-Search, WorldCat Local). |
|
|
By end of Spring 2008 |
yes |
Think more broadly about reference (and instruction) in general & where are we in the Reference Vision plan? |
Lisa H. spearhead |
|
By end of Spring 2008 |
|
Video tutorials assessment - we'll have the analysis back from Patty at some point in the spring. |
Angie, Georgiana |
|
By end of Spring 2008 |
|
Instruction Toolkit - think about when and who? The project plan (implementation of instruction plan) will address this, so we'll need to think about what is realistic. |
|
|
By beginning of Fall 2008 |
|
Pilot assessment of student learning. We need to have something in place by the beginning of the next academic year. (will be informed by IAP instruction assessment survey data) |
Lisa H will lead with Angie, Mark |
|
hope to have ready for next FY |
yes |
desk and away from desk statistics - check with Steve/Nina/Sands about using same coding from instruction statistics form for reference (at and away from desk statistics) |
Lisa H. will check, Heather, Remlee, Alan, Lisa S. |
|
By end of Spring? |
|
work with CFG on instruction awareness (Peter M & Peter C have met to discuss; more talking between committees will follow.) |
Peter |
|
compile IAP data in Feb.; compile spring semester data at end of semester |
|
compile instruction survey info gathered; how set up for annual report?; evaluate if changes should be made for future use; IAP compilation pilot to inform if changes desired for spring instruction (assessing perception of relevance) |
instruction coordinators, Lisa S., Heather, other volunteers? |
Recurring items:
- Aug: RISG budget (done by Chair)
- Sept: Select IAP coordinator team
- June: Call for new members (every year/through PSLG)
- June: Reference statistics (need to be done by middle of spring to be ready for next fiscal year)
- Plan Spring seminar
- Review instruction plan and implementation
- Review instruction toolkit
- Review & maintain video tutorials
- Review & maintain reference manual
- Review & maintain Barton Basics, information navigator, tutorials, etc
- Review instruction assessment tools - are the stats being gathered still relevant for what we want?
- Think about staffing models for reference/service including ask-us (falls under RISG as part of reference); ask-us general phone line sits in Hayden
- Think about subject pages - how working (esl - wordpress?, humanities - wiki? - overriding system coordination?)
