II.

Director's report a. Discussed D2L batch upload and possible July workshop for DLC’s on management of D2L. b. Assessment fee for each college based on enrollment will be determined Friday June 24. It will be determined by adding the number of students taking hosted courses and provided courses minus “never attended” withdrawals. c. We discussed possible proposal to amend the MOA/ policies procedures manual with regard to attachment B: “All participating colleges must make 100% of all credit MSVCC courses, for which they have program approval and accreditation, available for students during registration. This may be achieved by publishing the website of MSVCC, www.msvcc.org, in the college catalog and on its printed college schedules, and by adding a link of the complete course listing to the college’s website.” d. Discussed a 2 day meeting in July. One day for the DLC meeting to discuss August start up issues (wont meet in august) and the workshop on DLC management of D2L and for day 2 a workshop on “10 ways to keep your online students” for faculty who wish to attend. A request for proposal for a new learning management system has been issued.
