| Faculty Access to Computing Technology
Brief History of FACT
The FACT Committee was created in the spring of 1989 to help give SUNY faculty the advantage of maximum access to computing through financial support and the sponsorship of various SUNY-wide programs. These programs include the Conference on Computing in the Disciplines (COCID), the Student Computing Access Program (SCAP), and the Conference on Instructional Technologies (CIT).
The mission of the FACT Advisory Group is to:
Provide all faculty and instructional support staff appropriate computing capability and/or network access in that person's own workspace.
Improve expertise of faculty and instructional support staff in instructional technology through development and training.
Integrate computing, networking, and other electronic technology into curricula.
Enhance the teaching and learning process through the use of technology.
Increase collegiality through network connectivity.
