After this meeting, the soon-to-not-be Distance Education committee (multiple name changes were considered) discussed the feedback that was given by the Bylaws committee members via email during the rest of the week. A subsequent revision was put forward to the Bylaws committee on the morning of 12 April 2021, which had another comment from Laurie. The committee, renamed to Instructional Technology, revised the bylaws change again and submitted the prospective change to the Bylaws committee for review and recommendation to the Senate. Distance Education & Bylaws Committees meeting 5 Apr 2021 minutes Attending: Donald Jones, Laurie Walsh, Lynne Owens, Brian Zeiszler, David Sexton, Kathy Schwandt, Justine Stout, Laura Pike, Josh Webster, Oscar Sida, Hank Boone, Krishna Subedi Meeting about bylaws changes. Started at 11:00 AM. Brian updated the committee about what he and Laurie discussed about the submitted bylaws revision: He removed the definition section of the bylaws language, since no other committee contains one. Laurie suggested Education Technology as a new name for the committee. Laurie mentioned that there is no longer much difference between live and distance classes. Donald suggested that this will expand the responsibilities of the committee into classroom technologies, such as computers, SMARTboards, projectors, etc. Oscar asked whether there are other Faculty Senate technology committees? Laurie: No. Krishna: Introduced himself. He will be in Elko later this week. Brian summarized what had been discussed in the meeting for Krishnas benefit. Brian asked for any comments? Donald read Dans email to the committees: I don't think it is productive or wise to drop the "distance ed" indicator from the committee name, for a couple reasons: (1) Distance Education is a major part of 鶹ӰԺ identity, and (2) "distance education" is a universal indicator that is commonly understood for what it means, and what it entails. My suggestion would be to change the name to "Distance Education & Technology", rather than just "Educational Technology." Oscar moved to rename the committee to Distance & Educational Technology. David: Seconded the motion. Donald: Is this expanding to technology or modifying away from distance education and toward technology? Kathy asked if the committee can pause, wait to get more input from members, and allow us to wrap our heads around this? Brian mentioned things in the submitted revisions to look at: charges b vs a; composition should include someone from Computer Services + Tom as ex-officio. Laurie suggested that evolving is an improper term; also, dissemination of information should be more direct (from Deans). Oscar mentioned taking out evolving tech? Laurie said no, the term is not needed since technology and education are always evolving. Brian sent his modifications to the attending committee members. There was discussion about ex-officio membership (why certain members should be ex-officio instead of voting members). Conflict of interest was a primary concern. Kathy asked if anyone from the strategic planning group in this committee? There was a small discussion about the strategic planning group (when it will be started and a little about who is on it). Laurie reminded the committees that one of the primary purposes in the restructuring of the Faculty Senate committees was attempting to separate administrative functions from committees (forms processing and the like). Brian mentioned that he had another meeting at 11:30, so had to leave. (This was at 11:28 AM) Donald said that he would send this information to the rest of the committee to get a revised bylaws addition by the end of the week. Kathy asked if Laurie or Justine had anything more from the Bylaws Committee. Laurie enumerated: Basic, clear list of charges; expand technology; remove overlapping charges; no clerical craziness Justine agreed with Laurie; she was alone in the Controllers office, so will look over the stuff that was sent. Donald will reach out to the committee to find out if there is a better time for meetings this semester.
