Institutional Effectiveness Plan: Electrical/Electronics

Mission:

To train, retrain and up-grade training for job-related applications in the industrial maintenance field

2009-2010 Assessment Outcomes & Use of Results

blue divider
College Goal: Develop and implement instructional programs and services, both traditional and distance learning offerings, that are consistent with the assessed needs of the constituent groups in the College’s service area and with state and national standards, including training and retraining of the workforce.
Division Goal: Provide credit and non-credit programming to enhance economic development of the service area.
Program Goal: Plan and implement recruiting trips to both high schools located in Montgomery County.
Objectives: Demonstrate that the opportunity for a good and lasting career can be obtained from the EET Program.
Action Plan: Take application project created by students to demonstrate the marketable skills that can be learned at MCC in the EET Dept. Contact Graham Fox with the Montgomery County Schools to set up good days and times for us to do these demonstrations at the schools. Next we want to invite Mr. Fox to bring the high school student to the college to our department for an in-depth demonstration and questions. Try to involve the parents of the students as much as possible.
Assessment Strategy: Check inquiries to the department by local channels.
Assessment Outcomes: A trip to the high schools is planned for the end of April.
Use of Results: Help high school students know and understand the need for a good science and math education to be competitive in the workplace of today. Try to help students to understand that belief in themselves will help them to accomplish their goals, by the fact when they complete the program, they can get the type of work they desire.

College Goal: Provide facilities for student learning that capitalize on state-of-the-art instructional applications.
Division Goal: Provide facilities, staffing, and services that support educational program delivery that will enhance economic development of the service area.
Program Goal: Gain necessary data to begin the process of training students to work with the alternative and bio-fuel industry.
Objectives: Assess current programming and project new/expanded programming for emerging workforce needs. Incorporate “green” initiatives in facilities planning for current use and future programming needs as appropriate
Action Plan:
  1. Determine what permits or license is necessary for the generation of alternative and bio-fuels.
  2. Consult Kevin McNeill about the possible location of the housing of a bio-fuel generator
  3. Consult with Carol Sargent about finding grant money for the housing and startup equipment for an alternative and bio-fuel generation facility
  4. Develop a flow chart to cover the start up process of the generator and lesson plan development.
Assessment Strategy:
  1. If one new student enrolls or a former student comes back to retake classes that will implement the new bio-fuel lab project, then we have been successful.
  2. If we are able to gain the go-ahead from Mary and we are able to acquire the permits, then we have been successful.
  3. If FibroWatt hires one of our graduates because of their particular exposure to our small bio-fuel facility, or agrees to form a scholarship for a student, then we have been successful.
  4. If we put Montgomery Community College on the map as innovators of training and process control applications in the bio-fuel industry, then we have been successful.
Assessment Outcomes: Due to the fact that we only have the one piece of “green” equipment, (thanks to Mary Chesson), our can crusher works well now so we can use it for demonstration purposes. The county dropped the ball on the FibroWatt deal so we have to revisit that. These assessments will be carried forward to the 2010 – 2011 school year.
Use of Results: Will be carried forward to the 2010 – 2011 school year.

Institutional Effectiveness Plan
2010-2011

College Goal: Provide facilities for student learning that capitalize on state-of-the-art instructional applications.
Division Goal: Provide facilities, staffing, and services that support educational program delivery.
Program Goal: Participation in the Super CIP rolled out in 2010-2011 for the “go green”  movement state wide.
Objectives: Obtain data for the testing and implementation of “green technology” in the use and application of the resources connected to building 500.
Action Plan:
  1. Use occupancy sensors in all locations possible to better control the utilization of lighting sources.
  2. Test and implement the use of solar voltaic technology to handle small to medium load applications.
  3. Test the possibility of using wind turbine technology.
  4. Heat and AC system monitoring of data for more efficient use of power consumed by heat pumps.
  5. Attend when possible meetings related to the Super CIP that do not take us away from time with students here.
Person(s) Responsible: EET Instructors, Associate Dean, VP of Instruction
Anticipated Date for Achieving Objective: December 2010
Assessment Strategy: Continually monitor power bill.
Budget Needs to Accomplish Objective: This is a rough estimate that will mostly come from grant money acquired by Kevin McNeill. $15,000.00. Instructionally, the budget we were given to operate during the 2008–2009 year worked well.
Assessment Outcomes: Will be completed in May 2011
Use of Results: Will be completed in May 2011
