CSUF Affordable Learning Solutions Campaign A Campus Wide Collaborative Effort February 26, 2014
ALS Steering Committee Committee:CSUF Campus Constituents • Bookstore • Academic Technology Center (ATC) • Information Technology • Library • Faculty Development Center • Disabled Student Services • ATC Advisory Board
CSUF ALS Program Goals • Develop a website (completed) • Improve knowledge of programs (on going) • Improve campus outreach (on going) • Interactive on-line resources for digital content (pending) • Digital delivery model (pending) • Assessment of program (pending)
CSUF ALS Steering Project:Key Project Milestones • Campus steering committee meets • Campus website collaboratively developed • Website reviewed by steering committee • Faculty advisory board “road-show” • Trainings to be developed based upon road show feedback • Revisions to website and posted material ongoing
CSUF: What’s Working Well • Shared information from collaborative team = campus website • “Did you know” campaign • Peer to peer presentations (faculty to faculty within each college) • “Incentives” for information sessions (snacks) • Key talking points, but no formal presentation • Website used as key support for information sharing • Asking, not assuming, about future training topics • Dedicated and diverse leadership team
CSUF: What’s Not Working as Well as We Would Like • Peer to peer presentations via open forum • Firm timelines—flexible schedule found to be beneficial especially when accommodating department meetings • Student membership on committee unstable • Roadshow faculty may need to defer to committee experts for specific questions and can’t do so “on the spot” • How to institutionalize the project website after grant funding ends (webmaster, fact checker, etc.)
CSUF ALS Project: What’s Next? • Continue information forums • Develop trainings for needs identified at information forums • Deliver trainings and obtain feedback • Ongoing revisions to website; add live tally for $$ saved • Continue to evaluate and expand pilot projects while adding to campus showcase
CSUF College of Education: Project Showcase • Need to prepare future teachers • Classrooms and K-12 students are technologically advanced • Presentations by Apple and Pearson • Department reached out to the Bookstore on how to deliver • Wanted to keep some flexibility in options for students • Custom website for information
CSUF Credential Program iPad Cohort • Elementary Education Program • Required digital textbooks • Required iPad • Started Fall 2013 • 44 student in program • Student have choices on purchases, average savings of $400+ each semester • Challenges • Not all students ready for digital • Not all titles available in digital
CSUF College of Education Next Steps • Single Subject Credential Program • 175 students in Fall 2014 • Additional 50 students in Spring 2015 • Two semester program • Recommend technology purchase to students • Programming on how to utilize the iPad • Partnering with Apple reps
CSUF EdEliPad Project Takeaways • Start early • Technology is the easy part • Special requests will take time • Options are helpful • Communication is essential • Be flexible • Ask publishers for digital content
