So, the battle continues to be able to keep integrating iPads into the mental health program at KVCC. Yesterday I met with the admin and we discussed the proposal I had put together.
While I’m essentially OK with the proposal, there is still the haunting reality that the admin has chosen to reach into the classroom and impact the selection of materials process. While they have asked that this agreement not set a precedence for other programs to repeat, it DOES set a precedence for the administration being able to influence and change aspects of the class that have been the sole purview of the Faculty.
I’m anxious to see the memorandum that is supposed to come out of this and then talk with the folks at the Union.
None-the-less, I’m nearly ready for the start of the semester. I think the entire institution is a bit chaotic right now, but we will see how it holds together.
