::# '''Online Collaboration (OPS235 Instructor Resource)'''. There is a considerable amount of work to do to ensure items are updated for OPS235 prior to semester startup. I think it would be a good idea to have a '''check-list''' for all items such as: Covering off with OPS335 for version of CENTOS to use, update lab-book semester info, update instructors and photos, testing and update links for media install, update weekly dates for notes, update professor names and sections in both main WIKI and Weekly Schedule, submit Weekly schedule to Dianna, etc.<br><br><ul><li>'''OPS235 Instructor's Guide:''' [ [https://docs.google.com/document/d/1b9VosmlEg-oyFx7JaeqXqKBMvhQvK5djOSONdqFfBlI/edit?usp=sharing OPS235 Instructor's Guide] ] (Currently Under Development)</li><li>'''Sample OPS235 Semester Startup Checklist using GoogleDocs Forms:''' [ [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1pKCMrckEkHPbR9icDjoUC3FPwcfKtug_as9RujWEWlM/viewform?usp=send_form OPS235 Semester Startup Checklist] ]</li><li>'''View Status of OPS235 Semester Startup Checklist:''' [ [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1tqxNs3YqQghL41jCfY2nyWc_StdpPjiRQjCZ2cdXAvY/edit?usp=sharing OPS235 Semester Startup Status] ]</li></ul> <br><br>
::#'''AODA Accomodation'''.<br><br>'''Issue #1:'''<br><br> It is recommended to make available for '''each lab or classroom a method to safely keep a door open while class is in session without propping the door open with a chair''' - If door is not opened, door is locked which can be a distraction for professors when delivering course material. '''It has been noted there is no consistency in the TEL building wrt many of the labs: Some have door stops, many do not. If door stops are not somehow attached to lab, they go missing or are used for other labs'''. If door is opened with propping chair, can be unsafe for students with special needs (for example blind students) and problems in the event of an emergency (for example: fire). Also, it has been noted challenges in providing Linux drivers to communicate with devices for individuals with special needs. '''These issues when solved should be shared in a central repository with support and suggestions to allow better access through a student's duration and with different instructors, staff'''.<br><br>
::#'''New Machine Issues (UEFI)'''. The new machines in T3074, T4044, and T4048 among others are causing issues with certain hard drives where the system wants an EFI boot partition. I have already contacted ITS about having this disabled but if this issue is not finalized soon (who knows how fast ITS will work on this ) we should ensure that by the start of next semester (though UEFI is disabled in the machines to make sure students can get their OS installed without any problems. As a side note, I have found that booting from a Live CD and wiping the hard drive and placing an ext4 FS on it has worked in some scenarios, but not all.<br><br>
