Subject: CSU SWAT-II Survey --> Directors of Academic Technology:
ACTION REQUESTED (Sat 4/24)
DAT'ers,
As referenced at the April 9 meeting hosted by CSU Long Beach,
there were two specific Action Items that are SWAT-II deliverables.
The information requested below is directly aligned with other
CSU initiatives and will be utilized in multiple venues, in addition
to identifying communication channels (vital to future activities).
ACTION REQUESTED: use the attached spreadsheet and enter your
campus data - the “contracts” tab is due by June 1,
2004 and the “ADA” tab by June 15, 2004.
Action Item #1 (Item 6.1 on DAT Agenda – April 9, 2004)
Inventory existing academic technology contracts/services/contacts;
aligned with CSU Contracts and Procurement Services efforts, cost
savings, etc.
NOTE: the assumption and screening factor for responses are all
centralized academic technology contracts/services valued at greater
than $5,000 (whether procured or donated). The focus is software
centric and, where applicable, include support services, training,
etc. Where information is available for non-centralized academic
technology contracts/services, these should be included. Grant
funded software should not be included, unless there is a large-scale
campus impact (e.g. affects greater than 1,000 students, multiple
disciplines, greater than 20 faculty).
Action Item #2 (Item 6.2 on DAT Agenda – April 9, 2004)
ADA and assistive technology “affinity groups”: identify
campus contacts, catalog of services, resources, partnerships,
venues, models, etc.
We recognize that there will be updates to campus submissions
in the future. At this juncture, we're seeking "best effort"
to get sensible data and communication contacts identified for
pending Spring/Summer CSU system-wide activities.
Thanks in advance for your timely efforts of data collection
and outreach to campus constituents. Please contact us directly
with any questions or clarifications that you have, to ensure
the above deadlines are met.
Additional SWAT-II materials are available at the interim SWAT-II
Web site at http://its.calpoly.edu/plans_projects/SWAT-II/. The
official Web site, http://swat.calstate.edu, will be live in early
May.
Sincerely,
Craig Schultz - SWAT-II Lead
