 * Instructional labs (both permanent and wireless) will be // created for use // by COE classes.

Labs should be available for COE classes.

// Modify labs for Universal Accessibility //

// Maybe some different environmental designs // || H, F, S, U || Dean || $100,000 (computers, wiring, tables, chairs, hubs) || I.E., II.E., II.F. || A-1, A-5, A-7, B-2, B-3, B-6, C-4, C-5 || Inventory of equipment || 2004 ||  || **Accomplished. Labs are currently being developed. Costs should be shared by the university and COE.** ||
 * Inventory of technology equipment/software and survey faculty as to preferences.

This inventory should be shared with faculty

COE Inventory Space

A process needs to be in place to maintain the inventory and to ensure that requests are met in timely manner. || H, S, U || Dean’s Office || Time/Assistant || I.E., I.G. || A-1, B-1, B-2, B-3, B-4 || Inventory report || Inventory: May 2001, nearly completed.

Faculty provided with a Software Request Form Survey: Annually, by September. || Updated annually by May.

Annual Reports || **Accomplished. Both university and COE conduct inventories. ITS services equipment annually and addresses special requests.** ||
 * Annually, upgrade the oldest 1/3 of computers for faculty and staff.

ITS needs to work with faculty and staff to maintain inventory

Faculty and staff need to be kept informed and consulted.
