              The co-chairs of the USNY Technology Policy and Practices Council (TPPC), Dr. Ellen Meier and Dr. Donald Jacobs, presented the findings of a study on the use of technology as it applies to teaching and learning in New York.

 

              Based upon the findings of the study, the Council offered eight recommendations for consideration by the Board:

 

  • The State Education Department (SED) needs to undertake and lead the development of a statewide network that takes advantage of the existing NYSERNET, BOCES, SUNY and other network infrastructure in the State and leverages the size of a statewide network to bring more uniform, broadband capacity and lower costs to schools across the State;
  • The SED should consider establishing and publishing acceptable standards and benchmarks for the acquisition, implementation and use of technologies to support teaching and learning;
  • The SED should consider establishing and publishing standards and expectations for the creation and organization of digital content in all of the State’s museums and cultural organizations for use by the K-16 community and aggressively explore ways in which federal and state funds can be used to support the development and distribution of cultural organization and museum-based educational content, including audio, video and digital “learning objects” to schools across the State;
  • The SED should consider participating in the “National Partnership for 21st Century Skills” as several other states have done;
  • The SED should consider updating the requirements for ongoing professional development of teachers to address the use and integration of technologies in teaching and learning;
  • The SED should continue to focus on preparing New York’s future teachers to teach using technology;
  • The  SED should consider establishing standards in the use and integration of technologies in teaching and learning for school leadership preparation programs as well as updating requirements for ongoing professional development of school leaders at the district and building levels; and,
  • Creation and staffing of a USNY Office of Instructional Technologies in SED with leadership that reports to senior management.

 

Commissioner Richard P. Mills asked the co-chairs to prepare a budget proposal to establish a statewide broadband capacity taking advantage of the existing infrastructure in the State, for inclusion in the Regents 2008-09 budget priorities.

  • Degree-Conferring Authority for Proprietary Colleges and Private Equity Companies.  The Committee discussed the application of the Regents new standards for the transfer of degree-conferring authority for a proprietary college when the proposed purchaser is a private equity company.  This discussion sets the context for the Committee’s discussion in October about the proposed approval of the transfer of degree-conferring authority for Bryant & Stratton College.  This would be the first such approval since the Regents enacted their new standards for these transfers.
