The committee “debriefed” on the Administrative Day held Thursday, January 12th.  The consensus is that the day was well received and a success.  Some of the formal and informal feedback included:

·         Need to do better job making sure staff are aware that the day is for everyone (not just faculty)

·         45 minute time blocks may be too short

·         Post presenter materials in a Prof Dev folder on the shared drive

·         Offer follow-up sessions or lunch & learn series

o   Using the technology available on campus

o   Creative assessment

o   Engaging unsuccessful students

o   ADA

o   Residential Life tours

o   Copyright/plagiarism

The committee discussed ways in which we could remind employees to update their professional development forms (i.e. a monthly  e-mail reminder?), and also the benefits of using the form, for the employee and for the college.

Jen Graham and Elizabeth Crawford agreed to serve as committee co-chairs.  The committee will meet again on February 2nd at 12:00 noon.
