Agenda:

  • Is the work described in 3519 Electrical Work sufficient to make your area be up to electrical code, in your opinion?

  • Opinions on Tidy Space
  • We have to change how certifications work.
    • Mass certifications?

    • This is especially important in the wood and metal shop because there are far more tools requiring certifications, yet neither of those spaces have regular certification times.
  • Overview of budget for 2013

Minutes:

  • try to use a wysiwyg (what you see is what you get) to make wiki easier to use for area hosts
  • should we have two levels of certification
    • certified to lead vs certified to teach
  • could we do standing monthly authorization
    • post this schedule to the wiki - not required to be peoples only time to get certified
  • Anna suggests certified in groups
    • general tools
    • specialized tools
  • making sure the certification is understood
    • can we post projects on the wiki for certain tools so it reinforces through practice
      • encourage people to look at these projects to reiforce what they have learned and encourage hacking in general
  • make sure that people understand, even after certification, that it is ok to ask for help if you are unsure of how to use a tool

  • eric is going to announce at the next several weeks to remind people that they need to check the wiki to make sure they are on the wiki as a certified user


Meeting end: 10:28 pm
