WAOL Advisory Group Monday, July 9, 2012
Agenda: • 2012 Meeting Dates: http://goo.gl/QS2Wi • State Authorization Issue • Blackboard Collaborate Check-in • Tegrity Check-in • ANGEL Check-in • eLearning Community • Canvas Update • Open Course Library Update Next meeting—July 23rd–same time, same place
State Authorization Issue • USDOE regulation requiring state authorization was vacated by US District Court and that ruling was upheld June 5 by the US Court of Appeals; however, state laws remain on the books. • The regulation was vacated not because the state laws are illegal but because the US Dept of Ed didn’t follow the correct process—so it’s just a technical ruling. • Remember the requirement to provide complaint contacts for out-of-state students was not vacated. This is for all students. • http://wcetblog.wordpress.com/2011/07/19/federal-student-complaint-regulation-%E2%80%93-clarifying-misconceptions/ • More information on this wiki: http://stateregulations.wikispaces.com/
