November 12, 2021 Council Meeting @ Turning Stone Casino / FACT2 Updates
« on: November 12, 2021, 10:13:16 AM »
I can't make the meeting today, but I've provided an update:
Cindi Tysick (Head, Educational Services Team, University at Buffalo) and I have been named to the SUNY Digital Learning Environment (DLE) Advisory Team to represent SUNY Libraries. The DLE Advisory Team is to provide broad feedback on the implementation and planning of the migration from Blackboard to Brightspace, as well as act as liaison to their respective constituent groups.
We will be presenting with Mark McBride on this topic at the SLC Fall meeting.
I've attached a couple of documents/updates from the SUNY Provost about the migration. Please only share with people internal to SUNY.
If you have any questions about the migration to Brightspace, please email me or Cindi. I'll share future updates on the SUNYLA listserv as well.

March 15, 2019 Council Meeting @ Onondaga / FACT2 Report
« on: March 15, 2019, 09:46:25 AM »
The FACT2 Advisory Council met on February 8th in Albany, NY.
- There was a lot of discussion around the Open SUNY whitepaper and the changes it proposes for online learning in SUNY. You can read the whitepaper here: https://www.sunydutchess.edu/faculty/mklein/Post%20RFI%20White%20Paper%20Circulation%20Copy%2002052019.pdf
- Updates from the Open Pedagogy and Adaptive Learning task groups.
- FACT2 is thinking of rebranding. Right now it stands for SUNY Faculty Advisory Council on Teaching and Technology (FACT2). Would keep the same acronym but change the T words.
- FACT2 has groups on Workplace for the campus reps and also the advisory council. If SUNYLA wants to utilize Workplace more or differently (we have a group) and needs help Kelly Williamson at CPD is the go-to person. Or let me know and I can contact her.
- Registration is now open for CIT 2019 at SUNY Purchase: https://cit.suny.edu/cit-2019/
Our next meeting is April 12, also in Albany, NY.

November 2, 2018 Council Meeting @ Delhi / FACT2 Report
« on: November 02, 2018, 10:26:50 AM »
The FACT2 Advisory Committee met on Friday, October 17th in Albany NY. I shared information about the WGIL Lightning Talks and several members of the group were very interested in them and thought they might be of interest to the wider FACT2 community. I am to ask if we can share those on the FACT2 Workplace group? I'm happy to post them if it's okay with WGIL and SUNYLA! At the meeting, we also had a working lunch with the SUNY Provost to talk about his priorities for FACT2. He is especially interested in Adaptive Learning.
The FACT2 task groups have been set for next year, and are:
1. Adaptive Learning
2. Open Pedagogy
Please contact me at kghidiu@monroecc.edu if you'd like to volunteer to serve on one of these task groups or could recommend someone at your institution to serve (could be a librarian, library staff, faculty, instructional designer, etc). There is still time to get involved!
