Donna Clark created a lesson on plagiarism and academic integrity when it was discovered that many freshmen were confused about plagiarism.

The Information Literacy Matrix will be revised in Summer 2008 after Karen Douse's meeting at NECC and Alice Bryant's conference at ALA.

Blackboard, Office 2007, SynchToy, OneNote in the fall. Additional training on MS FL and US FL for additional blackboard training and using Audacity for recording - Fine Arts on Blackboard - MS History and MS Math on classroom presenter - new Art History teacher on ArtStor - numerous training sessions for individual teachers on ArtStor, Audacity, Photostory, Blackboard, Ning, Wikis, Blogs, Moviemaker, Exam View, Atomic Learning, and many others too numerous to mention. Give stats so far this year.

Have guidelines for skills - have not implemented. Will revise and try again next year. Propose to department chairs at opening meeting.

Do not use Custom Typing - find another program. Met with MS teams to try to figure out what to do - no consensus yet. REvisit. ||
