Academic Technology Committee

About the Academic Technology Committee

The Academic Technology Committee (ATC) is composed of faculty, staff, and students from the academic divisions at El Camino College.  This ATC serves as a gateway for faculty to request technology for academic instruction as put forth by the Resolution for Faculty in High-Tech Fields Involvement in Technology Selection acknowledged by the Academic Senate as follows:

WHEREAS, It is recognized that most disciplines and labs on campus can use the standard technology (PCs or Macs) selected by ITS, however, certain disciplines fall outside of these standards;

WHEREAS, Faculty who teach in disciplines with specialized computer lab technology demands, requiring more than standard PCs or Macs, have expertise in the needs of technology for their instructional needs;

WHEREAS, These disciplines are currently considered to be Architecture, Computer Science, Computer Information Science, Data Science, Digital Arts, and Games and Playable Media;

WHEREAS, Faculty in these disciplines also need more than the standard PC or Mac to prepare and teach their courses effectively;

RESOLVED, Faculty in Architecture, Computer Science, Computer Information Science, Data Science, Digital Arts, and Games and Playable Media must be consulted by ITS when labs are created, scheduled for an upgrade, or in need of an off cycle upgrade to support instruction;

RESOLVED, ITS must provide appropriate technology for those labs, without requiring the faculty to purchase the equipment on grants, or to find other sources of funding on their own;

RESOLVED, Faculty in Architecture, Computer Science, Computer Information Science, Data Science, Digital Arts, and Games and Playable Media must be given a computer that meets the requirements of their discipline;

RESOLVED, As new high-tech disciplines emerge they can petition the Academic Technology Committee to be added to the list of disciplines that must be consulted.
