Charges:

1

In coordination with the ATA Mid-year Meeting Committee, plan and administer a teaching session at the 2006 ATA Midyear Meeting.

2

Plan and begin implementing an online teaching case exchange.  Implementation should consider how the cases should be organized to facilitate ATA members' ease of access.  Should additional assistance be required, consult with the Accreditation and Curriculum as well as the Technology Committees and the ATA Webmaster

3

Write a column for the Spring ATA Newsletter which includes citation and short summaries of articles about innovative teaching ideas.

4

Liaison with the AICPA/ATA task force that has been formed to examine the AICPA’s Model Tax Curriculum.  The task force is not only seeking input from the ATA on what the model curriculum should be, but also how it can be presented and hopefully implemented by members of the ATA.  Contact Beth Kern and discuss with her, her evaluation of the concept mapping project suggested by the Long-Range Planning committee from last year.

5

Think generally how the activities of this committee would be of interest to an audience beyond just ATA members and how your committee through the ATA website or other facility can make that activity known both to the members and broader audience
