Consideration (Why?)
• Purpose
– Need
• Limited faculty
• Limited time
• Limited space
– Desire
• Improve instruction
• Up to date
• Set the curve
Questions
• Does it really work?
• Is it better than what we are currently using?
• Will it save me time?
• Will it save me money?
• Is it something we should be teaching?
Cost
• Expense (cost/benefit)
– Initial
• Equipment, supplies, training
– Continued
• Supplies, maintenance
• Budget
• Grants
Cost
We must be able to justify the expense!
Compatibility
• Philosophy/Direction – Administration/Faculty Buy-in
• Facility – Machinery – Associated materials (inventory)
• Logistics – Implementation – Transition – Sustainability
• IT – Security – Storage/Archive – Installation
