Program Review Resource/Needs Requests
Organization | Budget Category | Category | Description | Related Goal or PR Section | Justification | Cost
Academic Support Center | Program Review Goal (PR) | Equipment (E) | Student Chairs for tutoring center. | Program Goals, Operations | The tutoring center chairs badly need replacing. The center has a lot of student traffic and a large number of the current chairs are either broken or inappropriate for the space. The inappropriate chairs are too large and do not have wheels, causing difficulty for students and tutors to both find enough seating and move around in the room easily. | 8000
Astronomy | Program Review Goal (PR) | Computer Hardware (CH) | HD Projector in SCI-160, used in Astronomy Lecture and Lab. | Improve our ability to reach and inspire our students through the use of technology. | Astronomy is the most inspiring and beautiful science. Areas of star forming regions glow with red gases and dark dust lanes running through it. The present projector cannot show this level of detail and students cannot see what the instructor is explaining. A higher resolution project will display the beauty of the Universe. | 2000
Child Development | Program Review Goal (PR) | Hourly/Student Workers/Seasonal Etc. (H) | Hourly student worker to assist students with Permit application process. | Permit attainment. | Having a California Child Development Permit helps students to gain employment. The process is tedious and at times confusing. Students need guidance. Faculty spend endless hours with this advisement. Having a student worker available to make appointments would help students to get the information they need and leave faculty office hours open for students needing help with assignments. | $500 per semester.
Communication Studies | Program Review Goal (PR) | Facilities (F) | Space and equipment for a permanent speech communication lab. (Aside from just Facilities chosen above (F), we need E, S, CH, CS, and (possibly) H. | Program [NAME]: Re-establish a speech communication lab | Many of our students could stay and succeed in our Public Speaking classes if they had the kind of individualized attention they could get from a Speech Lab, specifically helping them to organize, develop, and deliver speeches. Many drop out because they fail to get this extra, individualized attention. | unknown
Communication Studies | Program Review Goal (PR) |  | Release time or sabbatical to develop hybrid online-face to face sections of courses | Program [NAME]: Provide more sections of Public Speaking by adding "hybrid" communication class sections | This enterprise would not be simply researching new books or new equipment - it would be investigating similar courses taught elsewhere, determining what seems to work well and what doesn't, determining what material might be covered online and what material would have to be covered in a face to face class, and creating materials (tutorials, exercises, speech examples, etc.) that could be delivered online, which would also include investigating the limitations of and experimenting with the technology for delivering these materials effectively. | unknown
Computer Applications | Program Review Goal (PR) | Hourly/Student Workers/Seasonal Etc. (H) | Need a lab aide in our computer lab to help with large number of ESL students. | Goal 1, overview | In our lab, we have a large number of ESL students and can have as many as 40 students in attendance at a time. We need lab aides to help the instructor in answering questions that students have esp. one who speakes Vietnamese. | We are open 25 hours a week. The cost for two semesters is $7,312.50. If we offer the lab in summer school, an additional $702 is needed. If we have work study students, we can use them for $1,000 a semester.
Computer Applications | Program Review Goal (PR) | Other Non-Personnel (O) | Google certification | Google certification | In order to take the Google certification test, the fee is $100 per person. | 100
Computer Applications | Program Review Goal (PR) | Other Non-Personnel (O) | Membership for three faculty to lynda.com | This relates to the goals for brown bag courses and to google certification. | Lynda.com is a website that provides online training in a variety of software packages. Since our curriculum changes so frequently, we are always in need of training and this is an efficient way to do this. | $750 for three memberships for one year.
Computer Applications | Program Review Goal (PR) | Other Non-Personnel (O) | Books and other reference materials | Program goals for brown bag courses, google certification and ESL class | Aside from training, another resource used in developing new courses are books for reference. | $250 (10 books $25 each)
Graphic Design & Graphic Arts | Program Review Goal (PR) | Other Non-Personnel (O) | Ongoing targeted marketing funds for our programs in our service area. | Overview and Program Goals | We are nearing a limit to the amount of 'free' marketing we can do. We are researching the possibility of doing targeted marketing for our classes and programs through services like Pandora to increase mind share in the local community, and are requesting moneys to that end. If we could attract a small portion of the students who are attending these higher priced schools, it would be a successful return on the investment. We believe increased marketing of our programs could attract some of the students who are unhappy with paying these high tuition fees. | We have been advised that a campaign targeting only our geographic area, yielding approximately 750,000 ad impressions, could be run for approximately $4000.
Hospitality Management | Program Review Goal (PR) | Equipment (E) | Portable hot/cold buffet servers. | Support catering and experienced based learning opportunities. | Since the renovation, the dining room has been booked by numerous constituents on the same day, and even on lunch day's. The banquette carts will allow for increase flexibility, ability to take on more events that occur simultaneously and promote student learning by providing diverse service opportunities. | One hot/cold cart, one hot only cart. Approx. $5500 for both. Taxes and shipping not included.
Hospitality Management | Program Review Goal (PR) | Other Non-Personnel (O) | Funding to support 4 students in attending the National Restaurant Show in Chicago or the NACE (catering) event in Las Vegas. And/or local trade shows and events. | Instructor professional development and exposing students to industry trade shows and conferences, both in-state and out of state. | To promote professional development for HM instructors and to expose students to vastness of industry and diverse career opportunities. | $2500-$3000 per instructor for out of state show/conference. Approximately $3000 for four students for out of state 3 night conference or trade show.
Hospitality Management | Program Review Goal (PR) | Other Non-Personnel (O) | Marketing materials to promote revenue generating initiatives. | Support and grow experienced based learning opportunities. The last time HM received substantial funds for marketing supplies, the supplies lasted almost 7 years. | The greater the hands on experience provided the more marketable HM's graduates are. To date, marketing efforts have been primarily through unfunded mechanisms. Catering opportunities along with expanded operations classes experience can be expanded significantly with focused and funded marketing efforts. Overall program visibility along with increased college exposure would result. | Brochures, hand outs, give away items for HS outreach, lunch ops ads, poster paper and sandwich boards.. Estimated $10,000.00
Hospitality Management | Program Review Goal (PR) | Other Non-Personnel (O) | Funding for stipend for supervision and management of essential HM duties. | Augmented experience based learning opportunities; catering business development. | Four areas were identified as crucial to on-going and expanding HM activities. Procurement/inventory, technology initiatives, building/facility (food labs) upkeep and maximizing revenue generation. | $26,508 annually.
Hospitality Management | Program Review Goal (PR) | Supplies (S) | Top of the line catering display/action station/service-ware. Ex.carving station, warming holding disply-ware, top model heat lamps. | Development of catering business to enhance student hands-on learning opportunities. | This specialty equipment will enhance the exposure student are currently receiving through the catering function. Students will learn and practice very high-end display and service options. Additionally, student will learn how to store/inventory and maintain high quality specialty equipment and service-ware. | $15,000.00 - various presentation pieces.
Kinesiology | Program Review Goal (PR) | Equipment (E) | We need a DartFish video system and software. | Use of technology to improve the instructional program. | We need the Dartfish system for video analysis of human performance. | 4000

Mathematics | Program Review Goal (PR) | Supplies (S) | Office and instructional supplies | Math Learning Center | Supplies for supporting staff office needs and instructional supplies for MLC are needed. | 2000
Music | Program Review Goal (PR) | Hourly/Student Workers/Seasonal Etc. (H) | -Essentially, were looking to create a pool of ?approved? audio engineers who can operate our recording facility for outside clients in order to ?fill and use the space? when classes are not in session. This worker would be paid for by the outside client but could also be paid by the college or music department on occasions when help is needed and resources are available. | Offer courses/certificates, degrees in Digital Music that support ?Non-traditional? music students. Discuss and plan new facilities, personnel and equipment to support these programs. | Experienced personnel is needed to maintain the specialized equipment used for the digital music programs. Contract engineers create a partnership between the college and technology organizations and allow the program to use these specialized facilities when instructors are not present. | -Costs for use by non-college organizations/clients would be paid for by client, plus a facility fee that would return monies to the college. -College expense could range from $0 to $1600/semester depending on in-college use.
English | Program Review Goal (PR) | Hourly/Student Workers/Seasonal Etc. (H) | --Instructional Aides to assist instructors in giving students feedback on their writing activities. | Trends: At present our FTEF seems to be decreasing. This results in more students being in each class, which means less time for each individual student to get individual attention and help. Essentially, with our supplemental instruction course, we attempt to ameliorate this being giving students their one on one instruction via writing activities that are developed by our full-time faculty and then checked by trained instructional aides. Goals: Furthermore, this will aid us in our Program Review goals to move away from Pearson (drills divorced from actual student writing), to develop a successful accelerated Basic Skills course, and to offer a successful learning community for Basic Skills Students. | --Instructional Aides: The cap for English 900 is 45, which is appropriate for a lab class. However, the students need to have their writing activities approved and signed off. Part of the process is providing immediate feedback and instruction once a student has completed an activity. This directly translates to better command of writing skills, which leads to retention, success, persistence, and transfer. Research has demonstrated that skill drills do very little, if anything, for a student?s writing skills. The concepts do not transfer to production. Thus, more manpower is needed to provide the students with the immediate feedback and direction that they need. Furthermore, having assessed the course twice, we have discovered that students prefer to work with instructional aides rather than instructors. The instructional aides make them more comfortable asking for something to be explained more than once, which evidently is stressful with an instructor. The aides also serve as positive role models of success, mentors, and friendly faces in other classes, making new students more comfortable at Mission. We feel that our instructional aides provide an invaluable service to our Basic Skills students. Thus, we are interested in developing a new, permanent revenue stream to fund this. | The base pay for an instructional aide is $9.75. We aim to offer eight sections of English 900, each of which meets for approximately 27.2 hours per term and to have three instructional aides per section = $7,500.
Kinesiology | Program Review Goal (PR) | Facilities (F) | New building for the replacment of the main building. | Safe environment for our students. |  | 7000000
