III. Faculty Development Day 2000

a. Menu – April said that Snowshoe indicated we could have a reception on Friday evening in lieu of a dinner.  We will still be able to receive the government rate of $30.00 per person for meals.  There was a suggestion to have the petting zoo with computers and software in the same area as the reception so those individuals could browse during the reception.  The LRC committee will be asked to be in charge of the petting zoo again this year.  Dan will check with Parr about this.  There was also a suggestion to have the craft fair again during the reception.  The site coordinators may know of some area crafters who might want to display.  Kathryn agreed to check with the site coordinators about this.  April will also check with Snowshoe.

b. Lunch Speaker – Rosie has contacted Dr. D’Allessandri about being the lunch speaker for the Saturday closing lunch.  He has this on his calendar.

c. Budget – Budget for the 2000 FDD will be kept up to date by April and she will report on the status.  Printing costs and food are the greatest expense.  Mike McCarthy agreed to assist the committee with putting registration schedule and on-line registration for the conference on the web.

d. Cultural Diversity – Imogene & Don –  This was tabled until the next meeting.

IV. OSCD
a. Training for OSCD’s – Dan & Bob will be checking with the OSCD’s about the type of training they would like on Friday morning.

b. Faculty Development Survey – Helen reported that the surveys went out.  The coding for site was not put on the surveys and therefore we will not be able to tell the site or discipline.  70 have been returned thus far.  Helen presented preliminary data from the survey, which indicates faculty’s top 6 areas of interest for future faculty development programs.  These are:
1. Being a better clinical teacher (“bedside teaching”)
2. How to provide feedback to students
3. How to use computers for teaching clinical students
4. More about the curriculum/goals in my own discipline
5. How to use computer-based resources in practice
6. What students look for in selecting a rural rotation

Topics for the 2000 training were based on this preliminary data.
 
c. TRACKER – Mike McCarthy discussed the issue of having the “preceptor of record” placed on each of the student requests by the school scheduler.  Members were given a demonstration of the TRACKER system and were explained that in order to add this field with a pull-down menu of preceptors, it would require an extra screen for every request.  The committee felt strongly that the information was needed.  Mike will work on changing the TRACKER student request process to indicate preceptor of record.

d. OSCD Job Description – Rosie and April worked on the procedures of the job description.  This will be sent out to members for further suggestions and discussion and then forwarded to the proper committee for feedback.


Next meetings of the Faculty Development Committee are as follows:
March 10, 2000 10AM-2PM Braxton LRC
April 7, 2000  10AM-2PM Braxton LRC
