meeting 10/18

here is a summary of the meeting of 10/18

jennifer brought up that she experienced difficulty commenting on this blog. talking it thru, it seems that the problem was a browser compatibility issue. this raised a larger issue though - the need for the team to provide technical assistance. i will take two steps to help in this a. prepare a minimum requirements list, b. be available for technical support for team members and their students - excellent point, jennifer...

the team members present reviewed their plans for implementing blogs in the spring and provided other team members with suggestions.

i will be getting in touch with you about our november meeting...
i would like all of you to prepare for that meeting your proposed blog assignment/project for spring semester - just as you would give it to students - so we can all review and offer suggestions...prior to the meeting, if you wish, you can email your assignment to the team, or post it here.
secondly, time permitting, i'd like to speak about rss to address how to get a grip on a large number of blogs.

i'll send an email out over next few weeks to try and schedule our next meeting at the best time for most members....

also, on november 8th - 3PM in bu201, i am presenting for the center for teaching excellence about blogs in an educational context. you are welcome to attend, but a lot of what will be discussed, we have already covered as a team.
