Support
Help Desk:
• Need additional faculty support for classroom and fwp
‘disasters’ requiring immediate attention.
• Remedy ticket access by college technicians seems to be
helping.
• College needs not met: Mac and software support.
Decentralized Technical Support:
• The relationship between ITS and CAED has improved but
there is still a need for an ITS presence within each college.
Pool of Trained Students:
• Did this ever happen?
Lab Refresh
• Additional efforts needed related to mobile computing.
• ITS support of architecture’s iJam lab seems to be working
well. Need a clearer definition of responsibilities.
* Based on IACC Priorities List from June 2001.

Infrastructure
• Thanks for the additional email and storage space!
• Thanks for the future additional bandwidth (TII) –
continue communication.
• Large format printing: availability still a problem.
• FWP – continues to be a wonderful program.
• Laptops – rentals/long-term checkouts needed for
students.
College
Specific
Needs
• Support for specific projects – mixed results; e.g.,
Design Authoring Database (DAD) vs. Building Industry
Game (BIG).
• IMS group…we were sorry to see this group
dismantled! Focus now seems more on training rather
than teaching and learning.
Presentation
Classrooms
• Continue to provide additional presentation
classrooms.

2002/03 Campuswide Needs
• Address mobile computing issues: support, student ownership
of computers, Citrix (campus site license), keyserved access to
software for students.
• Faculty development support:
– Help to build a community of educators interested in technology
and its appropriate use. For example, facilitate monthly meetings possibly through the Center for Teaching and Learning.
– Provide faculty support grants (similar to the summer research
grants offered by the state) for innovations in teaching and learning.
– We want the IMS group back (faculty development support).
• Set up web forums for faculty and staff to discuss technology
issues (hardware and software needs and recommendations).

2002/03 Campuswide Needs
(cont’d)
• Presentation classrooms:
– More, more, more.
– More flexibility in scheduling – one-time uses and
scheduling for laboratory courses.
• Continued ITS support for GIS data and Internet mapserving data, including both storage space and personnel.
• Support for OSX and OSX server.
• On-demand instructional technology support.
• CAED is very interested in using LDAP for student
authentication for our servers.

2002/03 College-Specific Needs
• Develop a better partnership with ITS:
– One-on-one instructional technology support. We would like an
instructional technology support person assigned to the college to
help with college-specific projects related to the appropriate use of
technology in the classroom.
– The CAED would like to invite an ITS representative to our weekly
college Computer Instructional Technology Committee (CITC)
meetings.
• College-fee based initiatives:
– We recommend that ITS help students include funding for support
and infrastructure upgrades that might be necessary with
purchases.
• Improved mobile computing support.

2002/03 Special Initiatives
• Internet2 Plans: Video Streaming, GIS, Immersive Visualization,
3D Video, Objective Networks.
• Construction management students will be required to purchase
laptops starting next year.
• An Integrated Project Delivery Minor will be offered next year.
Requirements for this course include:
– Sharing of files (AutoCAD and pictures) across the college and with
industry partners across the globe.
– Video-conferencing.
• Three online courses are planned in the college: one in
architectural engineering (summer 2002) and two in landscape
architecture (fall 2002). Future courses are being considered.

Strategic Issues Beyond 2002/03
• Develop a group within ITS to explore and test new
technologies related to teaching and learning and
to publish their results campus-wide. This group
should also support faculty interested in exploring
new technologies.
