Done? | Timeline | recurring | Project | Who's working on it? | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
DONE! | September 2008 | yes | Select IAP coordinator team | Lisa S, Roshni, Moses | |||
in progress | By end of Oct. 2008 | yes | Review & maintain video tutorials | Angie organizes, with help reviewing & updating | |||
in progress | Discuss in Sept. 2008 | yes | Think more broadly about reference (and instruction) in general & where are we in the Reference Vision plan? Already talked about what was and what have now; next steps write new vision for future; instruction assessment group talked about doing something similar with instruction; should RISG keep as separate streams or collapse together; "reference" vision actually "public service" vision. | Lisa H. spearhead | |||
By end of Fall 2008 | yes | Plan Spring Seminar. Brainstorm research and instruction-related topic, find someone to do it, figure out if it will cost money. For staff development. | Heather & Lisa H. (will bring in ideas from instruction assessment) | ||||
beginning is done; project ongoing | Fall 2008 Summer 2009? |
| Video tutorials assessment - we'll have the analysis back from Patty at some point in the spring. Have pilot assessments, but then what? Report written by Patty and Darcy; RISG is supposed to continue to evaluate?; writing in annual reports - no one included; Should there be a rotating "video coordinator" position in RISG? Angie already does for many things; Darcy oversees technical side - Angie and Darcy have been coordinating; only data collected is from Google Analytics. Sitting in awareness, satisfaction, importance space. Should it be up to instruction coordinators to report out on? Where is steve getting numbers from? | Angie, Georgiana | |||
Fall 2008-June 2008 | Consider sampling system for stats. Check with Steve/Nina/Sands about using same coding from instruction statistics form for reference (at and away from desk statistics). Lisa will talk to Steve about using GIS stat webform as example. | Lisa H. leads, with Heather, Remlee, Lisa S., Bill? | |||||
By beginning of Fall 2008; will talk about Fall 08 results in Jan/Feb but continue pilot for 1 year | Pilot assessment of student learning. We need to have something in place by the beginning of the next academic year. (will be informed by IAP instruction assessment survey data) | Angie leads, with Mark, & Lisa H | |||||
Start Sept. 2008; revision will be complete Jan. 2009; instruction plan timeline determines dates |
| Instruction Toolkit - think about when and who? The project plan (implementation of instruction plan) will address this, so we'll need to think about what is realistic. Nicole created a wikispace but it's not populated yet; linked from RISG wiki under projects and documents. Can start with existing instruction toolkit on wiki. http://libstaff.mit.edu/instruction/toolkit/bibliography.html | Mark will make draft and send out to group | ||||
| Start Oct. 2008 | yes | Review & maintain Barton Basics, information navigator, tutorials, etc. | Remlee, Peter, Angie, Anita, Lisa H; Keep Nicole & Darcy in the loop | |||
| End Have a plan by end of Fall 2008 |
| LibGuides vs subject guides assessment: assess research guides; some subject guides were just a listing of things from Vera, but many were much more extensive; make clear that subject guide doesn't have to look like database listing; make sure subject guide person knows they can control link from main library page to real subject guide and then link to LibGuide from subject guide | Lisa H. leads | |||
| End of Fall 2008 | yes | Review instruction plan and implementation | Peter | |||
Spring | October 2008 2009 |
| Establish list that lays out ownership of certain projects (virtual reference pages, instruction pages, wiki, etc) | everyone | |||
Spring 2009 | yes | Review & maintain Barton Basics, information navigator, tutorials, etc. | Spring 2009 | yes | Review & maintain reference reference manual: Link local reference manuals; dovetail with documentation infrastructure project? start wiki with ideas for manual | ||
| Spring 2009 |
| Review instruction assessment tools - are the stats being gathered still relevant for what we want? |
| |||
2009, after we have more survey results | Work to promote user awareness of research guides, maybe with CFG, as described in assessment project plan for 2007-2010. Use user awareness survey info. | ||||||
June 2009 | yes | Reference statistics (need to be done by middle of spring to be ready for next fiscal year) | |||||
June 2009 | yes | Call for new members (every year/through PSLG) |

- Think about how we could facilitate sharing what is learned at conferences and other events with colleagues. Is this feasible or even desirable to do?
- Improve the live capture in DIRC: ok to have short shelf life; things we can do to improve quality? Low cost? Link to them in more locations? Statistics? NO!! DIRC committee.
