Please provide one or more examples in the space provide below of highlights from Humber Colleges Enrolment Management Plan that Humber College used during 2012-2013 to manage enrolment

As a leading postsecondary education institution we offer a broad range of programming from apprenticeship training to certificate and diploma programs baccalaureate degrees and graduate certificates Our mandate is to provide a comprehensive and balanced mix of programs and services that support the success of our students in work and life For the 2012-13 academic year Humber received approximately 60000 applications more than any other college in the province Total full-time enrolment at Humber grew by seven per cent from fall 2011 to fall 2012 fulfilling our responsibility to ensure access and quality to our students and to our community

In order to accommodate increasing enrolment and maintain the quality of our academic facilities as well as student satisfaction levels Humber continues to invest in its physical infrastructure In 2012-2013 Humber added 8000 sq ft of program space at both North and Lakeshore Campuses Humber also completed the preliminary site work for the future 260000 sq ft six-storey Learning Resource Commons (LRC) at North Campus The LRC will be Humberrsquos new main entrance and gateway to the North Campus accommodating future growth by creating space for more than 2200 new students

Moving forward one of Humberrsquos strategies as outlined in its 2013-2018 Strategic Plan is to develop and implement a strategic enrolment management framework to continuously assess and improve programs and services against key student success and outcomes measures

Further details on Humberrsquos increased physical space and renovations are available in Humberrsquos comprehensive 2012-2013 Annual Report at wwwhumbercacontentpublications

The space below is provided for Humber College to describe methodology survey tools caveats and other information regarding the numbers reported above re Students with Disabilities First Generation and Aboriginal Students

First Generation and Aboriginal student numbers are sourced from self-identification application data from OCAS These questions were introduced for the first time on the application form for Fall 2010 and as such do not reflect all returning students In September 2010 Humber implemented its own incoming student survey where students have the opportunity to self-identify as First Generation andor Aboriginal Nearly 57 of students completed the survey in fall 2012 with 161 (3) self-identifying as Aboriginal Though these numbers represent only incoming students we believe Aboriginal student numbers from Humberrsquos incoming student survey are a more realistic representation of Humberrsquos student population

Please provide one or more highlights in the space provided below of an activity that Humber College used during 2012-2013 and which contributed to maintaining or improving Humber Colleges efforts to develop and enhance credit transfer A highlight could be a strategy a transfer pathway (ie transfer policies specifically defined credits or a defined entry point new or expanded agreements) changes to student supports or program viewed by Humber College to be an innovative practice a success story andor a key accomplishment In addition Humber College may if desired identify below any factors such as program mix that affected credit transfer graduate survey outcomes

41) Expanding Transfer Pathways excluding collaborative degree programs without a transfer pathway (eg expanding bilateral articulation agreements to multilateral agreements newrevised policies with specifically defined credits or defined entry point pathway projects to support college to college or college to university transfer etc)

Humber continues to develop a unique system of internal pathways between certificate diploma and degree programs As an Institute of Technology and Advanced Learning Humber is able to offer up to 15 per cent of its programs at the baccalaureate degree level In 2012-2013 Humber offered 17 degrees (plus Nursing) which represents 31 per cent of all college degree enrolment in Ontario As of September 2013 this number increased to 21 degree programs (plus Nursing) and over the next five to seven years Humber plans to offer additional baccalaureate degrees that resonate with potential students and respond to labour market demands All new degrees have pathways for diploma students from Humber or any other Ontario college In fall 2012 64 students transferred from Humber Diploma to Humber Degree programs Additional internal pathways include Humber diploma into University of Guelph-Humber degree programs The University of Guelph-Humber is located on Humberrsquos North Campus offering over 3800 students seven undergraduate degree programs Students are able to transfer from a number of Humber diploma programs affording students the opportunity to earn both a degree and a diploma after four years of full-time study as well as participate in hands-on workplace experience Humber is also focused on building external pathways We actively pursue the development of collaborative programs and formal transfer agreements with a variety of postsecondary institutions Currently Humber students can build from one credential to another through transfer credit opportunities In 2012-2013 Humber expanded its marketing and promotion of existing and new transfer agreements to ensure students are aware of all their options Efforts included visits to relevant diploma classes and site visits to Sault College and Canadore College for on-site admissions and information sessions Degree completion options were promoted through sessions with guidance counsellors locally through four dialogue sessions across the province and additional focus on degree completion in recruitment presentations It is also important to note that there are several pathways into Humber Students can also move from a university degree into one of Humberrsquos 35 graduate certificate programs which enrolled 1873 students in fall 2012 In the apprenticeship stream lateral transfers from apprenticeship to postsecondary are possible at several levels Students with related educational experience can apply for prior learning assessment and recognition exemptions when transferring between credentials Humber continues to market and promote existing and new transfer agreements to ensure students are aware of the variety of options available to them Further details and progress regarding transfer pathways are available in Humberrsquos comprehensive 2012-2013 Annual Report at wwwhumbercacontentpublications

42) Providing Support Services for Transfer Students (including student transition experienceactivities and supports to promote student success)

43) Improving Transparency and Access to Information about Credit Transfer and Transfer Pathways

Humber continues to offer a broad range of resources to ensure the success of all students including peer tutors counseling services learning skills workshops and an array of extracurricular engagement opportunities spanning from athletics to volunteer work To support transfer students through their transition and onwards students are encouraged to speak with Humber academic counsellors within their individual school of study to discuss their options and plan their next steps towards academic success and their eventual career Also in 2012-2013 Humber developed a position for a designated individual responsible for assisting transfer students both internally and externally This single point of contact provides students with improved access to information regarding credit transfer and the options available to them

In 2012-2013 Humber improved its credit transfer webpages to ensure access to the most comprehensive information regarding admission and advanced standing opportunities into many degree programs Information is available for graduates of a related diploma graduates of an unrelated diploma students with partially completed diploma programs as well as students who have completed or attended a Canadian University International postsecondary institutions or private career colleges

Humber also successfully implemented the second year of the Credit Transfer Innovation Fund Activities included

- system development to track transfer credit students - tracking and updating of equivalency database and synchronization with ONCAT transfer database - successful transfer credit advising pilot within the existing high school visit program - liaison with other PSE institutions to build awareness of existing transfer options between diploma and degree

6) eLearning

The Government of Ontario in the recently released discussion paper Strengthening Ontarios Centres of Creativity Innovation and Knowledge included a section regarding online learning as a potential method to increase access for all learners particularly those who are prevented from attending in-class education as a result of barriers that may be financial geographic physical family-related or work-related In spring 2010 the Ministry conducted a postsecondary survey on eLearning activity and plans that proved to be very useful in helping the Ministry to develop a stronger understanding of the scale and type of eLearning activity taking place across Ontario In its 2011-2012 MYAA Report Back Humber College provided information on eLearning that expanded on the information that was submitted in the Postsecondary eLearning Survey and contributed to establishing a general baseline of student participation and demand in online courses and programs As part of the ongoing development of performance indicators that reflect current government priorities for eLearning and that will contribute to the Ministrys future priorities on technology-enabled learning Humber College is asked to provide information on eLearning courses programs and registrations in 2012-2013 Fully Online Learning and Synchronous Conferencing DEFINITIONS Courses A Fully Online Learning (asynchronous) course is a form of distance learning delivered to individuals with access to the Internet either at home work or through an access centre Although courses may have a set start date and set due dates for assignments students can otherwise access and participate in courses at times and places of their own choosing The online component is typically over 80 of the total delivery For example a fully online course may include occasional face-to-face meetings a proctored exam etc with the remainder of the content delivered online

A Synchronous Conferencing course is delivered through audio and video conferencing to provide synchronous communications (ie at the same time) between an instructor at one site and students at other sites Conferencing can make use of the public telephone system (ISDN) dedicated wideband networks or the Internet A course is considered to be offered via synchronous conferencing if 80 or more of the content is delivered this way For example a synchronous conferencing course may have occasional face-to-face meetings a proctored exam etc with the remainder of the content delivered through audio and video conferencing Programs A Fully Online Learning (asynchronous) program describes a program which is considered to be fully online if 80 or more of its courses are fully online courses As an example suppose a program consisted of 10 courses where 8 courses are delivered fully online and 2 courses are delivered via traditional face-to-face In this case 80 of courses in the program are fully online and the program is defined as a fully online program

A Synchronous Conferencing program describes a program which is considered to be offered via synchronous conferencing if 80 or more of its courses are delivered via synchronous conferencing and 2 courses are delivered via traditional face-to-face In this case 80 of courses in the program are delivered via synchronous conferencing and the program is defined as a synchronous conferencing program

Hybrid Learning DEFINITIONS A Hybrid Learning course is a course where face-to-face teaching time is reduced but not eliminated to allow students more time for online study This model comes in a number of formats however the online component is typically 50-80 of the total course delivery In this case a hybrid learning course may have components delivered via traditional face-to-face however over half of the course delivery should be online A Hybrid Learning program is a program in which 80 or more of its courses are hybrid learning courses In the space provided below please highlight one or more examples of Humber Colleges use of Hybrid Learning courses andor programs in 2012-2013 Please provide one or more highlights in the space provided below of an activity that Humber College used during 2012-2013 which contributed to maintaining or improving Humber Colleges eLearning initiatives This could be a strategy initiative or program viewed by Humber College to be an innovative practice success story andor key accomplishment that Humber College would like to highlight

Currently Humber College only runs a handful of hybrid courses per the Ministry definition This type of delivery method is not widely used at the College

Humber College was quite active and aggressive in building new online content during the 2012-2013 academic year building close to 100 new online courses Sixty of these courses were language courses The online language courses are unique in that they leverage the Tell Me More language software platform that allows students to experience ldquolanguage immersionrdquo Using our current LMS the Tell Me More link and SCORM packages were embedded into each language course and the course was then supplemented with additional methods of evaluation discussion boards and a live facultystudent chat session using virtual classroom software Both professional and everyday language courses were built over a six month period and are now being offered through Humber College and OntarioLearn

Humber College continues to grow the online course catalogue and we look forward to making a similar investment in upgrading our online courses in the 2013-2014 academic year

2 Describe how Humber is doing its part to build up the apprenticeship system in Ontario to increase the skilled labour market supply through in-school training expanding the range of apprenticeship programming developing learning pathways for apprentices who wish to ladder into diploma programs and vice versa Provide enrolment data for the apprenticeship programs Humber offers

Humberrsquos Centre for Trades and Technology was developed in 2009 Humber invested over $16 million in the centre including a $7 million contribution from the Ontario Ministry of Training Colleges and Universities The 95000 square foot facility offers students in skilled trade diploma certificate and apprenticeship programs an opportunity to train in state-of-the-art industry-simulated settings under industry mandated standards Through the development of this centre Humber is helping to address the critical shortage of skilled trade workers

Humber provides the required components towards an apprenticeship including technical theory practical job experience and in-school training Students learn valuable skills by using the latest industry software programs and working in fully equipped up-to-date labs and shops At Humber skilled instructors highlight current trends within the industry and strive to duplicate situations that apprentices and skilled tradespeople will see in their everyday working life

Humber offered 12 apprenticeship programs in 2012-13

4 Describe how Humber is ensuring that diploma graduates have access to degree programs and how many graduates access degree education To meet the needs of all postsecondary learners Humber offers several pathways from diploma programs into degree programs The first pathway is for students to transfer from a Humber diploma program to a Humber degree program As an Institute of Technology and Advanced Learning Humber is able to offer up to 15 per cent of its programs at the baccalaureate degree level In 2012-2013 Humber offered 17 degrees (plus nursing) Humber currently represents just over 31 per cent of all college degree enrolment in Ontario In September 2013 this number will increase to 21 degree programs (plus nursing) and over the next five to seven years Humber plans to offer approximately 25 to 30 baccalaureate degrees that resonate with potential students and respond to labour market demands All new degrees have pathways for diploma students from Humber or any other Ontario college In Fall 2012 64 students transferred from Humber Diploma to Humber Degree programs

The second pathway ensuring degree access is from a Humber diploma into a Guelph-Humber degree program The University of Guelph-Humber is located on Humberrsquos North Campus offering over 3850 students seven undergraduate degree programs Students are able to transfer from a number of Humber diploma programs including

bull Business Administration rarr Hon Bachelor of Business Administration bull Early Childhood Education rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Early Childhood bull Social Service Worker rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Family amp Community

Social Services bull Police Foundations rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Justice Studies bull Fitness amp Health Promotion rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Kinesiology bull Media Communications rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Arts in Media Studies bull General Arts amp Science University Transfer certificate rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied

Science in Psychology

Since the launch of Guelph-Humber over 590 students have transferred from Humber Diploma to Guelph-Humber Degree programs

Finally students can build from one credential to another through transfer credit opportunities with more than 50 Canadian and international universities For students wishing to transfer from a diploma to a degree without the requirements several of Humberrsquos programs offer bridging courses over the summer months to ensure a seamless transition

5 Describe how Humberrsquos applied research activity supports its mission as a differentiated institution

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 79

At Humber research activity is directly tied to teaching and learning Applied research helps faculty members to create learning experiences that engage students in activities that take classroom learning into the workplace Applied research projects also help students to be workplace ready by reinforcing employability skills In addition applied research opportunities motivate faculty members to remain current in their areas of expertise and to continue to contribute to new knowledge in their fields

Applied research and innovation activities are evident in four main areas in the classroom including capstone projects through funded projects with industry partners through internally funded projects and at the Innovation Humber Incubator Both industry funded partnerships and internally funded projects offer research assistantships for students This year 58 students were engaged in a total of 12 funded projects and another 21 students were supported in entrepreneurial venture start-ups

Externally Funded Projects Externally funded projects with industry partners included three new CONII projects where students and faculty work with industry partners to respond to industry needs

i The CSMB-TV project engaged students and faculty in the School of Media Studies

and Information Technology (SMSIT) to create a platform for the launch of a web-based television network to serve small and medium-sized businesses and entrepreneurs This initial project has established a partnership that we confidently anticipate will lead to several new projects with SMSIT and other schools at Humber

ii A second project with industry partner Adam Bienenstock Natural Playgrounds

focused on gathering baseline data for future research Students from the Early Childhood Education (ECE) diploma and degree programs learned new research skills in the process of gathering and coding information about childrenrsquos play in the existing playground This summer a new outdoor learning environment will replace the playground to create a living laboratory for students faculty and other researchers interested in learning more about childrenrsquos engagement with the natural environment

iii A third project in collaboration with industry partner Cell 8 Games provided students

from the Game Programmer program with the opportunity to develop a new video game from the ideal phase to a working prototype which Cell 8 Games will commercialize and launch

Humber received its first National Science and Engineering Research Council CollegeUniversity Idea to Innovation (NSERC CU I2I) grant this year A faculty member in the School of Applied Technology will work with partners at Carleton University and industry partner MS Filters on a project to develop a new water treatment technology process for remote and northern communities Workstudy students from the Civil Engineering Technology program will participate in this project

Staff Initiated Research Fund (SIRF)

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 80

Humber provided funding for seven new staff initiated research projects through the SIRF program These projects enable faculty to pursue research interests that will engage student research assistants outside the classroom and which may lead to larger projects with industry partners For example the Natural Playgrounds project began as a SIRF project investigating preschool childrenrsquos responses to the natural world This year faculty and students engaged in projects ranging from creating a videogame to increase student engagement to investigating how consumers understand food nutrition labels Innovation Humber Incubator (IHI) Since its launch in 2012 the Innovation Humber Incubator funded by a grant from Ontario Centers of Excellence has launched a total of 31 ventures ndash 10 in 2011-12 and 21 in 2012-13 Students invited into the incubator in 2012-13 include those who applied for support from the New Venture Seed Fund as well as those who competed in the Friendly Fire Pitch Competition At present participating ventures range from an urban farming solution to a new fitness venture Students who participate in the IHI program are provided with mentors business resources and other support In exchange they agree that Humber may track their progress through their first year as a start-up Research in Teaching and Learning Humber has also been active in the area of research in teaching and learning and has received funding for participation in two projects through the Higher Education Quality Council of Ontario (HEQCO) The first piloted a tool for assessing student learning in generic skills using the Collegiate Learning Assessment (CLA) The second is a pilot project to develop a unique tool to measure student progress in genericemployability skills These projects complement our engagement in applied research projects that enhance studentsrsquo employability skills Humber Research continues to actively pursue opportunities to engage in applied research with industry partners who can provide our students with engagement with current industry problems and challenges With the amalgamation of CONII (Colleges Ontario Network for Industry Innovation) and Ontario Centers of Excellence we anticipate expanded opportunities for funded applied research projects that will create meaningful experiences for students and faculty alike

6) eLearning

The Government of Ontario in the recently released discussion paper Strengthening Ontarios Centres of Creativity Innovation and Knowledge included a section regarding online learning as a potential method to increase access for all learners particularly those who are prevented from attending in-class education as a result of barriers that may be financial geographic physical family-related or work-related In spring 2010 the Ministry conducted a postsecondary survey on eLearning activity and plans that proved to be very useful in helping the Ministry to develop a stronger understanding of the scale and type of eLearning activity taking place across Ontario In its 2011-2012 MYAA Report Back Humber College provided information on eLearning that expanded on the information that was submitted in the Postsecondary eLearning Survey and contributed to establishing a general baseline of student participation and demand in online courses and programs As part of the ongoing development of performance indicators that reflect current government priorities for eLearning and that will contribute to the Ministrys future priorities on technology-enabled learning Humber College is asked to provide information on eLearning courses programs and registrations in 2012-2013 Fully Online Learning and Synchronous Conferencing DEFINITIONS Courses A Fully Online Learning (asynchronous) course is a form of distance learning delivered to individuals with access to the Internet either at home work or through an access centre Although courses may have a set start date and set due dates for assignments students can otherwise access and participate in courses at times and places of their own choosing The online component is typically over 80 of the total delivery For example a fully online course may include occasional face-to-face meetings a proctored exam etc with the remainder of the content delivered online

A Synchronous Conferencing course is delivered through audio and video conferencing to provide synchronous communications (ie at the same time) between an instructor at one site and students at other sites Conferencing can make use of the public telephone system (ISDN) dedicated wideband networks or the Internet A course is considered to be offered via synchronous conferencing if 80 or more of the content is delivered this way For example a synchronous conferencing course may have occasional face-to-face meetings a proctored exam etc with the remainder of the content delivered through audio and video conferencing Programs A Fully Online Learning (asynchronous) program describes a program which is considered to be fully online if 80 or more of its courses are fully online courses As an example suppose a program consisted of 10 courses where 8 courses are delivered fully online and 2 courses are delivered via traditional face-to-face In this case 80 of courses in the program are fully online and the program is defined as a fully online program

Currently Humber College only runs a handful of hybrid courses per the Ministry definition This type of delivery method is not widely used at the College

Humber College was quite active and aggressive in building new online content during the 2012-2013 academic year building close to 100 new online courses Sixty of these courses were language courses The online language courses are unique in that they leverage the Tell Me More language software platform that allows students to experience ldquolanguage immersionrdquo Using our current LMS the Tell Me More link and SCORM packages were embedded into each language course and the course was then supplemented with additional methods of evaluation discussion boards and a live facultystudent chat session using virtual classroom software Both professional and everyday language courses were built over a six month period and are now being offered through Humber College and OntarioLearn

Humber College continues to grow the online course catalogue and we look forward to making a similar investment in upgrading our online courses in the 2013-2014 academic year

4 Describe how Humber is ensuring that diploma graduates have access to degree programs and how many graduates access degree education To meet the needs of all postsecondary learners Humber offers several pathways from diploma programs into degree programs The first pathway is for students to transfer from a Humber diploma program to a Humber degree program As an Institute of Technology and Advanced Learning Humber is able to offer up to 15 per cent of its programs at the baccalaureate degree level In 2012-2013 Humber offered 17 degrees (plus nursing) Humber currently represents just over 31 per cent of all college degree enrolment in Ontario In September 2013 this number will increase to 21 degree programs (plus nursing) and over the next five to seven years Humber plans to offer approximately 25 to 30 baccalaureate degrees that resonate with potential students and respond to labour market demands All new degrees have pathways for diploma students from Humber or any other Ontario college In Fall 2012 64 students transferred from Humber Diploma to Humber Degree programs

The second pathway ensuring degree access is from a Humber diploma into a Guelph-Humber degree program The University of Guelph-Humber is located on Humberrsquos North Campus offering over 3850 students seven undergraduate degree programs Students are able to transfer from a number of Humber diploma programs including

bull Business Administration rarr Hon Bachelor of Business Administration bull Early Childhood Education rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Early Childhood bull Social Service Worker rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Family amp Community

Since the launch of Guelph-Humber over 590 students have transferred from Humber Diploma to Guelph-Humber Degree programs

Finally students can build from one credential to another through transfer credit opportunities with more than 50 Canadian and international universities For students wishing to transfer from a diploma to a degree without the requirements several of Humberrsquos programs offer bridging courses over the summer months to ensure a seamless transition

5 Describe how Humberrsquos applied research activity supports its mission as a differentiated institution

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 79

At Humber research activity is directly tied to teaching and learning Applied research helps faculty members to create learning experiences that engage students in activities that take classroom learning into the workplace Applied research projects also help students to be workplace ready by reinforcing employability skills In addition applied research opportunities motivate faculty members to remain current in their areas of expertise and to continue to contribute to new knowledge in their fields

Applied research and innovation activities are evident in four main areas in the classroom including capstone projects through funded projects with industry partners through internally funded projects and at the Innovation Humber Incubator Both industry funded partnerships and internally funded projects offer research assistantships for students This year 58 students were engaged in a total of 12 funded projects and another 21 students were supported in entrepreneurial venture start-ups

Externally Funded Projects Externally funded projects with industry partners included three new CONII projects where students and faculty work with industry partners to respond to industry needs

i The CSMB-TV project engaged students and faculty in the School of Media Studies

and Information Technology (SMSIT) to create a platform for the launch of a web-based television network to serve small and medium-sized businesses and entrepreneurs This initial project has established a partnership that we confidently anticipate will lead to several new projects with SMSIT and other schools at Humber

ii A second project with industry partner Adam Bienenstock Natural Playgrounds

focused on gathering baseline data for future research Students from the Early Childhood Education (ECE) diploma and degree programs learned new research skills in the process of gathering and coding information about childrenrsquos play in the existing playground This summer a new outdoor learning environment will replace the playground to create a living laboratory for students faculty and other researchers interested in learning more about childrenrsquos engagement with the natural environment

iii A third project in collaboration with industry partner Cell 8 Games provided students

from the Game Programmer program with the opportunity to develop a new video game from the ideal phase to a working prototype which Cell 8 Games will commercialize and launch

Humber received its first National Science and Engineering Research Council CollegeUniversity Idea to Innovation (NSERC CU I2I) grant this year A faculty member in the School of Applied Technology will work with partners at Carleton University and industry partner MS Filters on a project to develop a new water treatment technology process for remote and northern communities Workstudy students from the Civil Engineering Technology program will participate in this project

Staff Initiated Research Fund (SIRF)

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 80

Humber provided funding for seven new staff initiated research projects through the SIRF program These projects enable faculty to pursue research interests that will engage student research assistants outside the classroom and which may lead to larger projects with industry partners For example the Natural Playgrounds project began as a SIRF project investigating preschool childrenrsquos responses to the natural world This year faculty and students engaged in projects ranging from creating a videogame to increase student engagement to investigating how consumers understand food nutrition labels Innovation Humber Incubator (IHI) Since its launch in 2012 the Innovation Humber Incubator funded by a grant from Ontario Centers of Excellence has launched a total of 31 ventures ndash 10 in 2011-12 and 21 in 2012-13 Students invited into the incubator in 2012-13 include those who applied for support from the New Venture Seed Fund as well as those who competed in the Friendly Fire Pitch Competition At present participating ventures range from an urban farming solution to a new fitness venture Students who participate in the IHI program are provided with mentors business resources and other support In exchange they agree that Humber may track their progress through their first year as a start-up Research in Teaching and Learning Humber has also been active in the area of research in teaching and learning and has received funding for participation in two projects through the Higher Education Quality Council of Ontario (HEQCO) The first piloted a tool for assessing student learning in generic skills using the Collegiate Learning Assessment (CLA) The second is a pilot project to develop a unique tool to measure student progress in genericemployability skills These projects complement our engagement in applied research projects that enhance studentsrsquo employability skills Humber Research continues to actively pursue opportunities to engage in applied research with industry partners who can provide our students with engagement with current industry problems and challenges With the amalgamation of CONII (Colleges Ontario Network for Industry Innovation) and Ontario Centers of Excellence we anticipate expanded opportunities for funded applied research projects that will create meaningful experiences for students and faculty alike

As a leading postsecondary education institution we offer a broad range of programming from apprenticeship training to certificate and diploma programs baccalaureate degrees and graduate certificates Our mandate is to provide a comprehensive and balanced mix of programs and services that support the success of our students in work and life For the 2012-13 academic year Humber received approximately 60000 applications more than any other college in the province Total full-time enrolment at Humber grew by seven per cent from fall 2011 to fall 2012 fulfilling our responsibility to ensure access and quality to our students and to our community

In order to accommodate increasing enrolment and maintain the quality of our academic facilities as well as student satisfaction levels Humber continues to invest in its physical infrastructure In 2012-2013 Humber added 8000 sq ft of program space at both North and Lakeshore Campuses Humber also completed the preliminary site work for the future 260000 sq ft six-storey Learning Resource Commons (LRC) at North Campus The LRC will be Humberrsquos new main entrance and gateway to the North Campus accommodating future growth by creating space for more than 2200 new students

Moving forward one of Humberrsquos strategies as outlined in its 2013-2018 Strategic Plan is to develop and implement a strategic enrolment management framework to continuously assess and improve programs and services against key student success and outcomes measures

The space below is provided for Humber College to describe methodology survey tools caveats and other information regarding the numbers reported above re Students with Disabilities First Generation and Aboriginal Students

First Generation and Aboriginal student numbers are sourced from self-identification application data from OCAS These questions were introduced for the first time on the application form for Fall 2010 and as such do not reflect all returning students In September 2010 Humber implemented its own incoming student survey where students have the opportunity to self-identify as First Generation andor Aboriginal Nearly 57 of students completed the survey in fall 2012 with 161 (3) self-identifying as Aboriginal Though these numbers represent only incoming students we believe Aboriginal student numbers from Humberrsquos incoming student survey are a more realistic representation of Humberrsquos student population

Please provide one or more highlights in the space provided below of an activity that Humber College used during 2012-2013 and which contributed to maintaining or improving Humber Colleges efforts to develop and enhance credit transfer A highlight could be a strategy a transfer pathway (ie transfer policies specifically defined credits or a defined entry point new or expanded agreements) changes to student supports or program viewed by Humber College to be an innovative practice a success story andor a key accomplishment In addition Humber College may if desired identify below any factors such as program mix that affected credit transfer graduate survey outcomes

41) Expanding Transfer Pathways excluding collaborative degree programs without a transfer pathway (eg expanding bilateral articulation agreements to multilateral agreements newrevised policies with specifically defined credits or defined entry point pathway projects to support college to college or college to university transfer etc)

Humber continues to develop a unique system of internal pathways between certificate diploma and degree programs As an Institute of Technology and Advanced Learning Humber is able to offer up to 15 per cent of its programs at the baccalaureate degree level In 2012-2013 Humber offered 17 degrees (plus Nursing) which represents 31 per cent of all college degree enrolment in Ontario As of September 2013 this number increased to 21 degree programs (plus Nursing) and over the next five to seven years Humber plans to offer additional baccalaureate degrees that resonate with potential students and respond to labour market demands All new degrees have pathways for diploma students from Humber or any other Ontario college In fall 2012 64 students transferred from Humber Diploma to Humber Degree programs Additional internal pathways include Humber diploma into University of Guelph-Humber degree programs The University of Guelph-Humber is located on Humberrsquos North Campus offering over 3800 students seven undergraduate degree programs Students are able to transfer from a number of Humber diploma programs affording students the opportunity to earn both a degree and a diploma after four years of full-time study as well as participate in hands-on workplace experience Humber is also focused on building external pathways We actively pursue the development of collaborative programs and formal transfer agreements with a variety of postsecondary institutions Currently Humber students can build from one credential to another through transfer credit opportunities In 2012-2013 Humber expanded its marketing and promotion of existing and new transfer agreements to ensure students are aware of all their options Efforts included visits to relevant diploma classes and site visits to Sault College and Canadore College for on-site admissions and information sessions Degree completion options were promoted through sessions with guidance counsellors locally through four dialogue sessions across the province and additional focus on degree completion in recruitment presentations It is also important to note that there are several pathways into Humber Students can also move from a university degree into one of Humberrsquos 35 graduate certificate programs which enrolled 1873 students in fall 2012 In the apprenticeship stream lateral transfers from apprenticeship to postsecondary are possible at several levels Students with related educational experience can apply for prior learning assessment and recognition exemptions when transferring between credentials Humber continues to market and promote existing and new transfer agreements to ensure students are aware of the variety of options available to them Further details and progress regarding transfer pathways are available in Humberrsquos comprehensive 2012-2013 Annual Report at wwwhumbercacontentpublications

6) eLearning

The Government of Ontario in the recently released discussion paper Strengthening Ontarios Centres of Creativity Innovation and Knowledge included a section regarding online learning as a potential method to increase access for all learners particularly those who are prevented from attending in-class education as a result of barriers that may be financial geographic physical family-related or work-related In spring 2010 the Ministry conducted a postsecondary survey on eLearning activity and plans that proved to be very useful in helping the Ministry to develop a stronger understanding of the scale and type of eLearning activity taking place across Ontario In its 2011-2012 MYAA Report Back Humber College provided information on eLearning that expanded on the information that was submitted in the Postsecondary eLearning Survey and contributed to establishing a general baseline of student participation and demand in online courses and programs As part of the ongoing development of performance indicators that reflect current government priorities for eLearning and that will contribute to the Ministrys future priorities on technology-enabled learning Humber College is asked to provide information on eLearning courses programs and registrations in 2012-2013 Fully Online Learning and Synchronous Conferencing DEFINITIONS Courses A Fully Online Learning (asynchronous) course is a form of distance learning delivered to individuals with access to the Internet either at home work or through an access centre Although courses may have a set start date and set due dates for assignments students can otherwise access and participate in courses at times and places of their own choosing The online component is typically over 80 of the total delivery For example a fully online course may include occasional face-to-face meetings a proctored exam etc with the remainder of the content delivered online

A Synchronous Conferencing course is delivered through audio and video conferencing to provide synchronous communications (ie at the same time) between an instructor at one site and students at other sites Conferencing can make use of the public telephone system (ISDN) dedicated wideband networks or the Internet A course is considered to be offered via synchronous conferencing if 80 or more of the content is delivered this way For example a synchronous conferencing course may have occasional face-to-face meetings a proctored exam etc with the remainder of the content delivered through audio and video conferencing Programs A Fully Online Learning (asynchronous) program describes a program which is considered to be fully online if 80 or more of its courses are fully online courses As an example suppose a program consisted of 10 courses where 8 courses are delivered fully online and 2 courses are delivered via traditional face-to-face In this case 80 of courses in the program are fully online and the program is defined as a fully online program

A Synchronous Conferencing program describes a program which is considered to be offered via synchronous conferencing if 80 or more of its courses are delivered via synchronous conferencing and 2 courses are delivered via traditional face-to-face In this case 80 of courses in the program are delivered via synchronous conferencing and the program is defined as a synchronous conferencing program

Currently Humber College only runs a handful of hybrid courses per the Ministry definition This type of delivery method is not widely used at the College

Humber College was quite active and aggressive in building new online content during the 2012-2013 academic year building close to 100 new online courses Sixty of these courses were language courses The online language courses are unique in that they leverage the Tell Me More language software platform that allows students to experience ldquolanguage immersionrdquo Using our current LMS the Tell Me More link and SCORM packages were embedded into each language course and the course was then supplemented with additional methods of evaluation discussion boards and a live facultystudent chat session using virtual classroom software Both professional and everyday language courses were built over a six month period and are now being offered through Humber College and OntarioLearn

Humber College continues to grow the online course catalogue and we look forward to making a similar investment in upgrading our online courses in the 2013-2014 academic year

2 Describe how Humber is doing its part to build up the apprenticeship system in Ontario to increase the skilled labour market supply through in-school training expanding the range of apprenticeship programming developing learning pathways for apprentices who wish to ladder into diploma programs and vice versa Provide enrolment data for the apprenticeship programs Humber offers

Humberrsquos Centre for Trades and Technology was developed in 2009 Humber invested over $16 million in the centre including a $7 million contribution from the Ontario Ministry of Training Colleges and Universities The 95000 square foot facility offers students in skilled trade diploma certificate and apprenticeship programs an opportunity to train in state-of-the-art industry-simulated settings under industry mandated standards Through the development of this centre Humber is helping to address the critical shortage of skilled trade workers

Humber provides the required components towards an apprenticeship including technical theory practical job experience and in-school training Students learn valuable skills by using the latest industry software programs and working in fully equipped up-to-date labs and shops At Humber skilled instructors highlight current trends within the industry and strive to duplicate situations that apprentices and skilled tradespeople will see in their everyday working life

Humber offered 12 apprenticeship programs in 2012-13

4 Describe how Humber is ensuring that diploma graduates have access to degree programs and how many graduates access degree education To meet the needs of all postsecondary learners Humber offers several pathways from diploma programs into degree programs The first pathway is for students to transfer from a Humber diploma program to a Humber degree program As an Institute of Technology and Advanced Learning Humber is able to offer up to 15 per cent of its programs at the baccalaureate degree level In 2012-2013 Humber offered 17 degrees (plus nursing) Humber currently represents just over 31 per cent of all college degree enrolment in Ontario In September 2013 this number will increase to 21 degree programs (plus nursing) and over the next five to seven years Humber plans to offer approximately 25 to 30 baccalaureate degrees that resonate with potential students and respond to labour market demands All new degrees have pathways for diploma students from Humber or any other Ontario college In Fall 2012 64 students transferred from Humber Diploma to Humber Degree programs

The second pathway ensuring degree access is from a Humber diploma into a Guelph-Humber degree program The University of Guelph-Humber is located on Humberrsquos North Campus offering over 3850 students seven undergraduate degree programs Students are able to transfer from a number of Humber diploma programs including

bull Business Administration rarr Hon Bachelor of Business Administration bull Early Childhood Education rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Early Childhood bull Social Service Worker rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Family amp Community

Social Services bull Police Foundations rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Justice Studies bull Fitness amp Health Promotion rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Kinesiology bull Media Communications rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Arts in Media Studies bull General Arts amp Science University Transfer certificate rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied

Science in Psychology

Since the launch of Guelph-Humber over 590 students have transferred from Humber Diploma to Guelph-Humber Degree programs

Finally students can build from one credential to another through transfer credit opportunities with more than 50 Canadian and international universities For students wishing to transfer from a diploma to a degree without the requirements several of Humberrsquos programs offer bridging courses over the summer months to ensure a seamless transition

5 Describe how Humberrsquos applied research activity supports its mission as a differentiated institution

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 79

At Humber research activity is directly tied to teaching and learning Applied research helps faculty members to create learning experiences that engage students in activities that take classroom learning into the workplace Applied research projects also help students to be workplace ready by reinforcing employability skills In addition applied research opportunities motivate faculty members to remain current in their areas of expertise and to continue to contribute to new knowledge in their fields

Applied research and innovation activities are evident in four main areas in the classroom including capstone projects through funded projects with industry partners through internally funded projects and at the Innovation Humber Incubator Both industry funded partnerships and internally funded projects offer research assistantships for students This year 58 students were engaged in a total of 12 funded projects and another 21 students were supported in entrepreneurial venture start-ups

Externally Funded Projects Externally funded projects with industry partners included three new CONII projects where students and faculty work with industry partners to respond to industry needs

i The CSMB-TV project engaged students and faculty in the School of Media Studies

and Information Technology (SMSIT) to create a platform for the launch of a web-based television network to serve small and medium-sized businesses and entrepreneurs This initial project has established a partnership that we confidently anticipate will lead to several new projects with SMSIT and other schools at Humber

ii A second project with industry partner Adam Bienenstock Natural Playgrounds

focused on gathering baseline data for future research Students from the Early Childhood Education (ECE) diploma and degree programs learned new research skills in the process of gathering and coding information about childrenrsquos play in the existing playground This summer a new outdoor learning environment will replace the playground to create a living laboratory for students faculty and other researchers interested in learning more about childrenrsquos engagement with the natural environment

iii A third project in collaboration with industry partner Cell 8 Games provided students

from the Game Programmer program with the opportunity to develop a new video game from the ideal phase to a working prototype which Cell 8 Games will commercialize and launch

Humber received its first National Science and Engineering Research Council CollegeUniversity Idea to Innovation (NSERC CU I2I) grant this year A faculty member in the School of Applied Technology will work with partners at Carleton University and industry partner MS Filters on a project to develop a new water treatment technology process for remote and northern communities Workstudy students from the Civil Engineering Technology program will participate in this project

Staff Initiated Research Fund (SIRF)

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 80

Humber provided funding for seven new staff initiated research projects through the SIRF program These projects enable faculty to pursue research interests that will engage student research assistants outside the classroom and which may lead to larger projects with industry partners For example the Natural Playgrounds project began as a SIRF project investigating preschool childrenrsquos responses to the natural world This year faculty and students engaged in projects ranging from creating a videogame to increase student engagement to investigating how consumers understand food nutrition labels Innovation Humber Incubator (IHI) Since its launch in 2012 the Innovation Humber Incubator funded by a grant from Ontario Centers of Excellence has launched a total of 31 ventures ndash 10 in 2011-12 and 21 in 2012-13 Students invited into the incubator in 2012-13 include those who applied for support from the New Venture Seed Fund as well as those who competed in the Friendly Fire Pitch Competition At present participating ventures range from an urban farming solution to a new fitness venture Students who participate in the IHI program are provided with mentors business resources and other support In exchange they agree that Humber may track their progress through their first year as a start-up Research in Teaching and Learning Humber has also been active in the area of research in teaching and learning and has received funding for participation in two projects through the Higher Education Quality Council of Ontario (HEQCO) The first piloted a tool for assessing student learning in generic skills using the Collegiate Learning Assessment (CLA) The second is a pilot project to develop a unique tool to measure student progress in genericemployability skills These projects complement our engagement in applied research projects that enhance studentsrsquo employability skills Humber Research continues to actively pursue opportunities to engage in applied research with industry partners who can provide our students with engagement with current industry problems and challenges With the amalgamation of CONII (Colleges Ontario Network for Industry Innovation) and Ontario Centers of Excellence we anticipate expanded opportunities for funded applied research projects that will create meaningful experiences for students and faculty alike

The space below is provided for Humber College to describe methodology survey tools caveats and other information regarding the numbers reported above re Students with Disabilities First Generation and Aboriginal Students

First Generation and Aboriginal student numbers are sourced from self-identification application data from OCAS These questions were introduced for the first time on the application form for Fall 2010 and as such do not reflect all returning students In September 2010 Humber implemented its own incoming student survey where students have the opportunity to self-identify as First Generation andor Aboriginal Nearly 57 of students completed the survey in fall 2012 with 161 (3) self-identifying as Aboriginal Though these numbers represent only incoming students we believe Aboriginal student numbers from Humberrsquos incoming student survey are a more realistic representation of Humberrsquos student population

6) eLearning

The Government of Ontario in the recently released discussion paper Strengthening Ontarios Centres of Creativity Innovation and Knowledge included a section regarding online learning as a potential method to increase access for all learners particularly those who are prevented from attending in-class education as a result of barriers that may be financial geographic physical family-related or work-related In spring 2010 the Ministry conducted a postsecondary survey on eLearning activity and plans that proved to be very useful in helping the Ministry to develop a stronger understanding of the scale and type of eLearning activity taking place across Ontario In its 2011-2012 MYAA Report Back Humber College provided information on eLearning that expanded on the information that was submitted in the Postsecondary eLearning Survey and contributed to establishing a general baseline of student participation and demand in online courses and programs As part of the ongoing development of performance indicators that reflect current government priorities for eLearning and that will contribute to the Ministrys future priorities on technology-enabled learning Humber College is asked to provide information on eLearning courses programs and registrations in 2012-2013 Fully Online Learning and Synchronous Conferencing DEFINITIONS Courses A Fully Online Learning (asynchronous) course is a form of distance learning delivered to individuals with access to the Internet either at home work or through an access centre Although courses may have a set start date and set due dates for assignments students can otherwise access and participate in courses at times and places of their own choosing The online component is typically over 80 of the total delivery For example a fully online course may include occasional face-to-face meetings a proctored exam etc with the remainder of the content delivered online

A Synchronous Conferencing course is delivered through audio and video conferencing to provide synchronous communications (ie at the same time) between an instructor at one site and students at other sites Conferencing can make use of the public telephone system (ISDN) dedicated wideband networks or the Internet A course is considered to be offered via synchronous conferencing if 80 or more of the content is delivered this way For example a synchronous conferencing course may have occasional face-to-face meetings a proctored exam etc with the remainder of the content delivered through audio and video conferencing Programs A Fully Online Learning (asynchronous) program describes a program which is considered to be fully online if 80 or more of its courses are fully online courses As an example suppose a program consisted of 10 courses where 8 courses are delivered fully online and 2 courses are delivered via traditional face-to-face In this case 80 of courses in the program are fully online and the program is defined as a fully online program

Currently Humber College only runs a handful of hybrid courses per the Ministry definition This type of delivery method is not widely used at the College

Humber College was quite active and aggressive in building new online content during the 2012-2013 academic year building close to 100 new online courses Sixty of these courses were language courses The online language courses are unique in that they leverage the Tell Me More language software platform that allows students to experience ldquolanguage immersionrdquo Using our current LMS the Tell Me More link and SCORM packages were embedded into each language course and the course was then supplemented with additional methods of evaluation discussion boards and a live facultystudent chat session using virtual classroom software Both professional and everyday language courses were built over a six month period and are now being offered through Humber College and OntarioLearn

Humber College continues to grow the online course catalogue and we look forward to making a similar investment in upgrading our online courses in the 2013-2014 academic year

2 Describe how Humber is doing its part to build up the apprenticeship system in Ontario to increase the skilled labour market supply through in-school training expanding the range of apprenticeship programming developing learning pathways for apprentices who wish to ladder into diploma programs and vice versa Provide enrolment data for the apprenticeship programs Humber offers

Humberrsquos Centre for Trades and Technology was developed in 2009 Humber invested over $16 million in the centre including a $7 million contribution from the Ontario Ministry of Training Colleges and Universities The 95000 square foot facility offers students in skilled trade diploma certificate and apprenticeship programs an opportunity to train in state-of-the-art industry-simulated settings under industry mandated standards Through the development of this centre Humber is helping to address the critical shortage of skilled trade workers

Humber provides the required components towards an apprenticeship including technical theory practical job experience and in-school training Students learn valuable skills by using the latest industry software programs and working in fully equipped up-to-date labs and shops At Humber skilled instructors highlight current trends within the industry and strive to duplicate situations that apprentices and skilled tradespeople will see in their everyday working life

Humber offered 12 apprenticeship programs in 2012-13

Apprenticeship Program 2012 Enrolment Arborist Apprenticeship 103 Baker 17 Cook (Cuisine) Apprenticeship 219 Chef Program for Journeyman Cooks - Culinary Co-op Diploma Apprenticeship - Construction Boilermaker Apprenticeship 189 Developmental Service Worker Apprenticeship 458 Electrician Construction and Maintenance Apprenticeship 1080 Industrial Electrician Apprenticeship 7 Institutional Cook 13 Horticultural Technician Apprenticeship 76 Network Cabling Specialist Apprenticeship 15 Plumber Apprenticeship 421 Solar Photovoltaic 20

4 Describe how Humber is ensuring that diploma graduates have access to degree programs and how many graduates access degree education To meet the needs of all postsecondary learners Humber offers several pathways from diploma programs into degree programs The first pathway is for students to transfer from a Humber diploma program to a Humber degree program As an Institute of Technology and Advanced Learning Humber is able to offer up to 15 per cent of its programs at the baccalaureate degree level In 2012-2013 Humber offered 17 degrees (plus nursing) Humber currently represents just over 31 per cent of all college degree enrolment in Ontario In September 2013 this number will increase to 21 degree programs (plus nursing) and over the next five to seven years Humber plans to offer approximately 25 to 30 baccalaureate degrees that resonate with potential students and respond to labour market demands All new degrees have pathways for diploma students from Humber or any other Ontario college In Fall 2012 64 students transferred from Humber Diploma to Humber Degree programs

The second pathway ensuring degree access is from a Humber diploma into a Guelph-Humber degree program The University of Guelph-Humber is located on Humberrsquos North Campus offering over 3850 students seven undergraduate degree programs Students are able to transfer from a number of Humber diploma programs including

bull Business Administration rarr Hon Bachelor of Business Administration bull Early Childhood Education rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Early Childhood bull Social Service Worker rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Family amp Community

Social Services bull Police Foundations rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Justice Studies bull Fitness amp Health Promotion rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Kinesiology bull Media Communications rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Arts in Media Studies bull General Arts amp Science University Transfer certificate rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied

Since the launch of Guelph-Humber over 590 students have transferred from Humber Diploma to Guelph-Humber Degree programs

Finally students can build from one credential to another through transfer credit opportunities with more than 50 Canadian and international universities For students wishing to transfer from a diploma to a degree without the requirements several of Humberrsquos programs offer bridging courses over the summer months to ensure a seamless transition

5 Describe how Humberrsquos applied research activity supports its mission as a differentiated institution

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 79

At Humber research activity is directly tied to teaching and learning Applied research helps faculty members to create learning experiences that engage students in activities that take classroom learning into the workplace Applied research projects also help students to be workplace ready by reinforcing employability skills In addition applied research opportunities motivate faculty members to remain current in their areas of expertise and to continue to contribute to new knowledge in their fields

Applied research and innovation activities are evident in four main areas in the classroom including capstone projects through funded projects with industry partners through internally funded projects and at the Innovation Humber Incubator Both industry funded partnerships and internally funded projects offer research assistantships for students This year 58 students were engaged in a total of 12 funded projects and another 21 students were supported in entrepreneurial venture start-ups

Externally Funded Projects Externally funded projects with industry partners included three new CONII projects where students and faculty work with industry partners to respond to industry needs

i The CSMB-TV project engaged students and faculty in the School of Media Studies

and Information Technology (SMSIT) to create a platform for the launch of a web-based television network to serve small and medium-sized businesses and entrepreneurs This initial project has established a partnership that we confidently anticipate will lead to several new projects with SMSIT and other schools at Humber

ii A second project with industry partner Adam Bienenstock Natural Playgrounds

focused on gathering baseline data for future research Students from the Early Childhood Education (ECE) diploma and degree programs learned new research skills in the process of gathering and coding information about childrenrsquos play in the existing playground This summer a new outdoor learning environment will replace the playground to create a living laboratory for students faculty and other researchers interested in learning more about childrenrsquos engagement with the natural environment

iii A third project in collaboration with industry partner Cell 8 Games provided students

from the Game Programmer program with the opportunity to develop a new video game from the ideal phase to a working prototype which Cell 8 Games will commercialize and launch

Humber received its first National Science and Engineering Research Council CollegeUniversity Idea to Innovation (NSERC CU I2I) grant this year A faculty member in the School of Applied Technology will work with partners at Carleton University and industry partner MS Filters on a project to develop a new water treatment technology process for remote and northern communities Workstudy students from the Civil Engineering Technology program will participate in this project

Staff Initiated Research Fund (SIRF)

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 80

Humber provided funding for seven new staff initiated research projects through the SIRF program These projects enable faculty to pursue research interests that will engage student research assistants outside the classroom and which may lead to larger projects with industry partners For example the Natural Playgrounds project began as a SIRF project investigating preschool childrenrsquos responses to the natural world This year faculty and students engaged in projects ranging from creating a videogame to increase student engagement to investigating how consumers understand food nutrition labels Innovation Humber Incubator (IHI) Since its launch in 2012 the Innovation Humber Incubator funded by a grant from Ontario Centers of Excellence has launched a total of 31 ventures ndash 10 in 2011-12 and 21 in 2012-13 Students invited into the incubator in 2012-13 include those who applied for support from the New Venture Seed Fund as well as those who competed in the Friendly Fire Pitch Competition At present participating ventures range from an urban farming solution to a new fitness venture Students who participate in the IHI program are provided with mentors business resources and other support In exchange they agree that Humber may track their progress through their first year as a start-up Research in Teaching and Learning Humber has also been active in the area of research in teaching and learning and has received funding for participation in two projects through the Higher Education Quality Council of Ontario (HEQCO) The first piloted a tool for assessing student learning in generic skills using the Collegiate Learning Assessment (CLA) The second is a pilot project to develop a unique tool to measure student progress in genericemployability skills These projects complement our engagement in applied research projects that enhance studentsrsquo employability skills Humber Research continues to actively pursue opportunities to engage in applied research with industry partners who can provide our students with engagement with current industry problems and challenges With the amalgamation of CONII (Colleges Ontario Network for Industry Innovation) and Ontario Centers of Excellence we anticipate expanded opportunities for funded applied research projects that will create meaningful experiences for students and faculty alike

The space below is provided for Humber College to describe methodology survey tools caveats and other information regarding the numbers reported above re Students with Disabilities First Generation and Aboriginal Students

First Generation and Aboriginal student numbers are sourced from self-identification application data from OCAS These questions were introduced for the first time on the application form for Fall 2010 and as such do not reflect all returning students In September 2010 Humber implemented its own incoming student survey where students have the opportunity to self-identify as First Generation andor Aboriginal Nearly 57 of students completed the survey in fall 2012 with 161 (3) self-identifying as Aboriginal Though these numbers represent only incoming students we believe Aboriginal student numbers from Humberrsquos incoming student survey are a more realistic representation of Humberrsquos student population

Please provide one or more highlights in the space provided below of an activity that Humber College used during 2012-2013 and which contributed to maintaining or improving Humber Colleges efforts to develop and enhance credit transfer A highlight could be a strategy a transfer pathway (ie transfer policies specifically defined credits or a defined entry point new or expanded agreements) changes to student supports or program viewed by Humber College to be an innovative practice a success story andor a key accomplishment In addition Humber College may if desired identify below any factors such as program mix that affected credit transfer graduate survey outcomes

41) Expanding Transfer Pathways excluding collaborative degree programs without a transfer pathway (eg expanding bilateral articulation agreements to multilateral agreements newrevised policies with specifically defined credits or defined entry point pathway projects to support college to college or college to university transfer etc)

Humber continues to develop a unique system of internal pathways between certificate diploma and degree programs As an Institute of Technology and Advanced Learning Humber is able to offer up to 15 per cent of its programs at the baccalaureate degree level In 2012-2013 Humber offered 17 degrees (plus Nursing) which represents 31 per cent of all college degree enrolment in Ontario As of September 2013 this number increased to 21 degree programs (plus Nursing) and over the next five to seven years Humber plans to offer additional baccalaureate degrees that resonate with potential students and respond to labour market demands All new degrees have pathways for diploma students from Humber or any other Ontario college In fall 2012 64 students transferred from Humber Diploma to Humber Degree programs Additional internal pathways include Humber diploma into University of Guelph-Humber degree programs The University of Guelph-Humber is located on Humberrsquos North Campus offering over 3800 students seven undergraduate degree programs Students are able to transfer from a number of Humber diploma programs affording students the opportunity to earn both a degree and a diploma after four years of full-time study as well as participate in hands-on workplace experience Humber is also focused on building external pathways We actively pursue the development of collaborative programs and formal transfer agreements with a variety of postsecondary institutions Currently Humber students can build from one credential to another through transfer credit opportunities In 2012-2013 Humber expanded its marketing and promotion of existing and new transfer agreements to ensure students are aware of all their options Efforts included visits to relevant diploma classes and site visits to Sault College and Canadore College for on-site admissions and information sessions Degree completion options were promoted through sessions with guidance counsellors locally through four dialogue sessions across the province and additional focus on degree completion in recruitment presentations It is also important to note that there are several pathways into Humber Students can also move from a university degree into one of Humberrsquos 35 graduate certificate programs which enrolled 1873 students in fall 2012 In the apprenticeship stream lateral transfers from apprenticeship to postsecondary are possible at several levels Students with related educational experience can apply for prior learning assessment and recognition exemptions when transferring between credentials Humber continues to market and promote existing and new transfer agreements to ensure students are aware of the variety of options available to them Further details and progress regarding transfer pathways are available in Humberrsquos comprehensive 2012-2013 Annual Report at wwwhumbercacontentpublications

43) Improving Transparency and Access to Information about Credit Transfer and Transfer Pathways

Humber continues to offer a broad range of resources to ensure the success of all students including peer tutors counseling services learning skills workshops and an array of extracurricular engagement opportunities spanning from athletics to volunteer work To support transfer students through their transition and onwards students are encouraged to speak with Humber academic counsellors within their individual school of study to discuss their options and plan their next steps towards academic success and their eventual career Also in 2012-2013 Humber developed a position for a designated individual responsible for assisting transfer students both internally and externally This single point of contact provides students with improved access to information regarding credit transfer and the options available to them

In 2012-2013 Humber improved its credit transfer webpages to ensure access to the most comprehensive information regarding admission and advanced standing opportunities into many degree programs Information is available for graduates of a related diploma graduates of an unrelated diploma students with partially completed diploma programs as well as students who have completed or attended a Canadian University International postsecondary institutions or private career colleges

Humber also successfully implemented the second year of the Credit Transfer Innovation Fund Activities included

- system development to track transfer credit students - tracking and updating of equivalency database and synchronization with ONCAT transfer database - successful transfer credit advising pilot within the existing high school visit program - liaison with other PSE institutions to build awareness of existing transfer options between diploma and degree

Currently Humber College only runs a handful of hybrid courses per the Ministry definition This type of delivery method is not widely used at the College

Humber College was quite active and aggressive in building new online content during the 2012-2013 academic year building close to 100 new online courses Sixty of these courses were language courses The online language courses are unique in that they leverage the Tell Me More language software platform that allows students to experience ldquolanguage immersionrdquo Using our current LMS the Tell Me More link and SCORM packages were embedded into each language course and the course was then supplemented with additional methods of evaluation discussion boards and a live facultystudent chat session using virtual classroom software Both professional and everyday language courses were built over a six month period and are now being offered through Humber College and OntarioLearn

Humber College continues to grow the online course catalogue and we look forward to making a similar investment in upgrading our online courses in the 2013-2014 academic year

4 Describe how Humber is ensuring that diploma graduates have access to degree programs and how many graduates access degree education To meet the needs of all postsecondary learners Humber offers several pathways from diploma programs into degree programs The first pathway is for students to transfer from a Humber diploma program to a Humber degree program As an Institute of Technology and Advanced Learning Humber is able to offer up to 15 per cent of its programs at the baccalaureate degree level In 2012-2013 Humber offered 17 degrees (plus nursing) Humber currently represents just over 31 per cent of all college degree enrolment in Ontario In September 2013 this number will increase to 21 degree programs (plus nursing) and over the next five to seven years Humber plans to offer approximately 25 to 30 baccalaureate degrees that resonate with potential students and respond to labour market demands All new degrees have pathways for diploma students from Humber or any other Ontario college In Fall 2012 64 students transferred from Humber Diploma to Humber Degree programs

The second pathway ensuring degree access is from a Humber diploma into a Guelph-Humber degree program The University of Guelph-Humber is located on Humberrsquos North Campus offering over 3850 students seven undergraduate degree programs Students are able to transfer from a number of Humber diploma programs including

bull Business Administration rarr Hon Bachelor of Business Administration bull Early Childhood Education rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Early Childhood bull Social Service Worker rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Family amp Community

Social Services bull Police Foundations rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Justice Studies bull Fitness amp Health Promotion rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Kinesiology bull Media Communications rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Arts in Media Studies bull General Arts amp Science University Transfer certificate rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied

Science in Psychology

Since the launch of Guelph-Humber over 590 students have transferred from Humber Diploma to Guelph-Humber Degree programs

Finally students can build from one credential to another through transfer credit opportunities with more than 50 Canadian and international universities For students wishing to transfer from a diploma to a degree without the requirements several of Humberrsquos programs offer bridging courses over the summer months to ensure a seamless transition

5 Describe how Humberrsquos applied research activity supports its mission as a differentiated institution

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 79

At Humber research activity is directly tied to teaching and learning Applied research helps faculty members to create learning experiences that engage students in activities that take classroom learning into the workplace Applied research projects also help students to be workplace ready by reinforcing employability skills In addition applied research opportunities motivate faculty members to remain current in their areas of expertise and to continue to contribute to new knowledge in their fields

Applied research and innovation activities are evident in four main areas in the classroom including capstone projects through funded projects with industry partners through internally funded projects and at the Innovation Humber Incubator Both industry funded partnerships and internally funded projects offer research assistantships for students This year 58 students were engaged in a total of 12 funded projects and another 21 students were supported in entrepreneurial venture start-ups

Externally Funded Projects Externally funded projects with industry partners included three new CONII projects where students and faculty work with industry partners to respond to industry needs

i The CSMB-TV project engaged students and faculty in the School of Media Studies

and Information Technology (SMSIT) to create a platform for the launch of a web-based television network to serve small and medium-sized businesses and entrepreneurs This initial project has established a partnership that we confidently anticipate will lead to several new projects with SMSIT and other schools at Humber

ii A second project with industry partner Adam Bienenstock Natural Playgrounds

focused on gathering baseline data for future research Students from the Early Childhood Education (ECE) diploma and degree programs learned new research skills in the process of gathering and coding information about childrenrsquos play in the existing playground This summer a new outdoor learning environment will replace the playground to create a living laboratory for students faculty and other researchers interested in learning more about childrenrsquos engagement with the natural environment

iii A third project in collaboration with industry partner Cell 8 Games provided students

from the Game Programmer program with the opportunity to develop a new video game from the ideal phase to a working prototype which Cell 8 Games will commercialize and launch

Humber received its first National Science and Engineering Research Council CollegeUniversity Idea to Innovation (NSERC CU I2I) grant this year A faculty member in the School of Applied Technology will work with partners at Carleton University and industry partner MS Filters on a project to develop a new water treatment technology process for remote and northern communities Workstudy students from the Civil Engineering Technology program will participate in this project

Staff Initiated Research Fund (SIRF)

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 80

Humber provided funding for seven new staff initiated research projects through the SIRF program These projects enable faculty to pursue research interests that will engage student research assistants outside the classroom and which may lead to larger projects with industry partners For example the Natural Playgrounds project began as a SIRF project investigating preschool childrenrsquos responses to the natural world This year faculty and students engaged in projects ranging from creating a videogame to increase student engagement to investigating how consumers understand food nutrition labels Innovation Humber Incubator (IHI) Since its launch in 2012 the Innovation Humber Incubator funded by a grant from Ontario Centers of Excellence has launched a total of 31 ventures ndash 10 in 2011-12 and 21 in 2012-13 Students invited into the incubator in 2012-13 include those who applied for support from the New Venture Seed Fund as well as those who competed in the Friendly Fire Pitch Competition At present participating ventures range from an urban farming solution to a new fitness venture Students who participate in the IHI program are provided with mentors business resources and other support In exchange they agree that Humber may track their progress through their first year as a start-up Research in Teaching and Learning Humber has also been active in the area of research in teaching and learning and has received funding for participation in two projects through the Higher Education Quality Council of Ontario (HEQCO) The first piloted a tool for assessing student learning in generic skills using the Collegiate Learning Assessment (CLA) The second is a pilot project to develop a unique tool to measure student progress in genericemployability skills These projects complement our engagement in applied research projects that enhance studentsrsquo employability skills Humber Research continues to actively pursue opportunities to engage in applied research with industry partners who can provide our students with engagement with current industry problems and challenges With the amalgamation of CONII (Colleges Ontario Network for Industry Innovation) and Ontario Centers of Excellence we anticipate expanded opportunities for funded applied research projects that will create meaningful experiences for students and faculty alike

The space below is provided for Humber College to describe methodology survey tools caveats and other information regarding the numbers reported above re Students with Disabilities First Generation and Aboriginal Students

First Generation and Aboriginal student numbers are sourced from self-identification application data from OCAS These questions were introduced for the first time on the application form for Fall 2010 and as such do not reflect all returning students In September 2010 Humber implemented its own incoming student survey where students have the opportunity to self-identify as First Generation andor Aboriginal Nearly 57 of students completed the survey in fall 2012 with 161 (3) self-identifying as Aboriginal Though these numbers represent only incoming students we believe Aboriginal student numbers from Humberrsquos incoming student survey are a more realistic representation of Humberrsquos student population

6) eLearning

The Government of Ontario in the recently released discussion paper Strengthening Ontarios Centres of Creativity Innovation and Knowledge included a section regarding online learning as a potential method to increase access for all learners particularly those who are prevented from attending in-class education as a result of barriers that may be financial geographic physical family-related or work-related In spring 2010 the Ministry conducted a postsecondary survey on eLearning activity and plans that proved to be very useful in helping the Ministry to develop a stronger understanding of the scale and type of eLearning activity taking place across Ontario In its 2011-2012 MYAA Report Back Humber College provided information on eLearning that expanded on the information that was submitted in the Postsecondary eLearning Survey and contributed to establishing a general baseline of student participation and demand in online courses and programs As part of the ongoing development of performance indicators that reflect current government priorities for eLearning and that will contribute to the Ministrys future priorities on technology-enabled learning Humber College is asked to provide information on eLearning courses programs and registrations in 2012-2013 Fully Online Learning and Synchronous Conferencing DEFINITIONS Courses A Fully Online Learning (asynchronous) course is a form of distance learning delivered to individuals with access to the Internet either at home work or through an access centre Although courses may have a set start date and set due dates for assignments students can otherwise access and participate in courses at times and places of their own choosing The online component is typically over 80 of the total delivery For example a fully online course may include occasional face-to-face meetings a proctored exam etc with the remainder of the content delivered online

A Synchronous Conferencing course is delivered through audio and video conferencing to provide synchronous communications (ie at the same time) between an instructor at one site and students at other sites Conferencing can make use of the public telephone system (ISDN) dedicated wideband networks or the Internet A course is considered to be offered via synchronous conferencing if 80 or more of the content is delivered this way For example a synchronous conferencing course may have occasional face-to-face meetings a proctored exam etc with the remainder of the content delivered through audio and video conferencing Programs A Fully Online Learning (asynchronous) program describes a program which is considered to be fully online if 80 or more of its courses are fully online courses As an example suppose a program consisted of 10 courses where 8 courses are delivered fully online and 2 courses are delivered via traditional face-to-face In this case 80 of courses in the program are fully online and the program is defined as a fully online program

A Synchronous Conferencing program describes a program which is considered to be offered via synchronous conferencing if 80 or more of its courses are delivered via synchronous conferencing and 2 courses are delivered via traditional face-to-face In this case 80 of courses in the program are delivered via synchronous conferencing and the program is defined as a synchronous conferencing program

2 Describe how Humber is doing its part to build up the apprenticeship system in Ontario to increase the skilled labour market supply through in-school training expanding the range of apprenticeship programming developing learning pathways for apprentices who wish to ladder into diploma programs and vice versa Provide enrolment data for the apprenticeship programs Humber offers

Humberrsquos Centre for Trades and Technology was developed in 2009 Humber invested over $16 million in the centre including a $7 million contribution from the Ontario Ministry of Training Colleges and Universities The 95000 square foot facility offers students in skilled trade diploma certificate and apprenticeship programs an opportunity to train in state-of-the-art industry-simulated settings under industry mandated standards Through the development of this centre Humber is helping to address the critical shortage of skilled trade workers

Humber provides the required components towards an apprenticeship including technical theory practical job experience and in-school training Students learn valuable skills by using the latest industry software programs and working in fully equipped up-to-date labs and shops At Humber skilled instructors highlight current trends within the industry and strive to duplicate situations that apprentices and skilled tradespeople will see in their everyday working life

Humber offered 12 apprenticeship programs in 2012-13

Apprenticeship Program 2012 Enrolment Arborist Apprenticeship 103 Baker 17 Cook (Cuisine) Apprenticeship 219 Chef Program for Journeyman Cooks - Culinary Co-op Diploma Apprenticeship - Construction Boilermaker Apprenticeship 189 Developmental Service Worker Apprenticeship 458 Electrician Construction and Maintenance Apprenticeship 1080 Industrial Electrician Apprenticeship 7 Institutional Cook 13 Horticultural Technician Apprenticeship 76 Network Cabling Specialist Apprenticeship 15 Plumber Apprenticeship 421 Solar Photovoltaic 20

4 Describe how Humber is ensuring that diploma graduates have access to degree programs and how many graduates access degree education To meet the needs of all postsecondary learners Humber offers several pathways from diploma programs into degree programs The first pathway is for students to transfer from a Humber diploma program to a Humber degree program As an Institute of Technology and Advanced Learning Humber is able to offer up to 15 per cent of its programs at the baccalaureate degree level In 2012-2013 Humber offered 17 degrees (plus nursing) Humber currently represents just over 31 per cent of all college degree enrolment in Ontario In September 2013 this number will increase to 21 degree programs (plus nursing) and over the next five to seven years Humber plans to offer approximately 25 to 30 baccalaureate degrees that resonate with potential students and respond to labour market demands All new degrees have pathways for diploma students from Humber or any other Ontario college In Fall 2012 64 students transferred from Humber Diploma to Humber Degree programs

The second pathway ensuring degree access is from a Humber diploma into a Guelph-Humber degree program The University of Guelph-Humber is located on Humberrsquos North Campus offering over 3850 students seven undergraduate degree programs Students are able to transfer from a number of Humber diploma programs including

bull Business Administration rarr Hon Bachelor of Business Administration bull Early Childhood Education rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Early Childhood bull Social Service Worker rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Family amp Community

Social Services bull Police Foundations rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Justice Studies bull Fitness amp Health Promotion rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Kinesiology bull Media Communications rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Arts in Media Studies bull General Arts amp Science University Transfer certificate rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied

Science in Psychology

Since the launch of Guelph-Humber over 590 students have transferred from Humber Diploma to Guelph-Humber Degree programs

Finally students can build from one credential to another through transfer credit opportunities with more than 50 Canadian and international universities For students wishing to transfer from a diploma to a degree without the requirements several of Humberrsquos programs offer bridging courses over the summer months to ensure a seamless transition

5 Describe how Humberrsquos applied research activity supports its mission as a differentiated institution

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 79

At Humber research activity is directly tied to teaching and learning Applied research helps faculty members to create learning experiences that engage students in activities that take classroom learning into the workplace Applied research projects also help students to be workplace ready by reinforcing employability skills In addition applied research opportunities motivate faculty members to remain current in their areas of expertise and to continue to contribute to new knowledge in their fields

Applied research and innovation activities are evident in four main areas in the classroom including capstone projects through funded projects with industry partners through internally funded projects and at the Innovation Humber Incubator Both industry funded partnerships and internally funded projects offer research assistantships for students This year 58 students were engaged in a total of 12 funded projects and another 21 students were supported in entrepreneurial venture start-ups

Externally Funded Projects Externally funded projects with industry partners included three new CONII projects where students and faculty work with industry partners to respond to industry needs

i The CSMB-TV project engaged students and faculty in the School of Media Studies

and Information Technology (SMSIT) to create a platform for the launch of a web-based television network to serve small and medium-sized businesses and entrepreneurs This initial project has established a partnership that we confidently anticipate will lead to several new projects with SMSIT and other schools at Humber

ii A second project with industry partner Adam Bienenstock Natural Playgrounds

focused on gathering baseline data for future research Students from the Early Childhood Education (ECE) diploma and degree programs learned new research skills in the process of gathering and coding information about childrenrsquos play in the existing playground This summer a new outdoor learning environment will replace the playground to create a living laboratory for students faculty and other researchers interested in learning more about childrenrsquos engagement with the natural environment

iii A third project in collaboration with industry partner Cell 8 Games provided students

from the Game Programmer program with the opportunity to develop a new video game from the ideal phase to a working prototype which Cell 8 Games will commercialize and launch

Humber received its first National Science and Engineering Research Council CollegeUniversity Idea to Innovation (NSERC CU I2I) grant this year A faculty member in the School of Applied Technology will work with partners at Carleton University and industry partner MS Filters on a project to develop a new water treatment technology process for remote and northern communities Workstudy students from the Civil Engineering Technology program will participate in this project

Staff Initiated Research Fund (SIRF)

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 80

Humber provided funding for seven new staff initiated research projects through the SIRF program These projects enable faculty to pursue research interests that will engage student research assistants outside the classroom and which may lead to larger projects with industry partners For example the Natural Playgrounds project began as a SIRF project investigating preschool childrenrsquos responses to the natural world This year faculty and students engaged in projects ranging from creating a videogame to increase student engagement to investigating how consumers understand food nutrition labels Innovation Humber Incubator (IHI) Since its launch in 2012 the Innovation Humber Incubator funded by a grant from Ontario Centers of Excellence has launched a total of 31 ventures ndash 10 in 2011-12 and 21 in 2012-13 Students invited into the incubator in 2012-13 include those who applied for support from the New Venture Seed Fund as well as those who competed in the Friendly Fire Pitch Competition At present participating ventures range from an urban farming solution to a new fitness venture Students who participate in the IHI program are provided with mentors business resources and other support In exchange they agree that Humber may track their progress through their first year as a start-up Research in Teaching and Learning Humber has also been active in the area of research in teaching and learning and has received funding for participation in two projects through the Higher Education Quality Council of Ontario (HEQCO) The first piloted a tool for assessing student learning in generic skills using the Collegiate Learning Assessment (CLA) The second is a pilot project to develop a unique tool to measure student progress in genericemployability skills These projects complement our engagement in applied research projects that enhance studentsrsquo employability skills Humber Research continues to actively pursue opportunities to engage in applied research with industry partners who can provide our students with engagement with current industry problems and challenges With the amalgamation of CONII (Colleges Ontario Network for Industry Innovation) and Ontario Centers of Excellence we anticipate expanded opportunities for funded applied research projects that will create meaningful experiences for students and faculty alike

The space below is provided for Humber College to describe methodology survey tools caveats and other information regarding the numbers reported above re Students with Disabilities First Generation and Aboriginal Students

First Generation and Aboriginal student numbers are sourced from self-identification application data from OCAS These questions were introduced for the first time on the application form for Fall 2010 and as such do not reflect all returning students In September 2010 Humber implemented its own incoming student survey where students have the opportunity to self-identify as First Generation andor Aboriginal Nearly 57 of students completed the survey in fall 2012 with 161 (3) self-identifying as Aboriginal Though these numbers represent only incoming students we believe Aboriginal student numbers from Humberrsquos incoming student survey are a more realistic representation of Humberrsquos student population

6) eLearning

The Government of Ontario in the recently released discussion paper Strengthening Ontarios Centres of Creativity Innovation and Knowledge included a section regarding online learning as a potential method to increase access for all learners particularly those who are prevented from attending in-class education as a result of barriers that may be financial geographic physical family-related or work-related In spring 2010 the Ministry conducted a postsecondary survey on eLearning activity and plans that proved to be very useful in helping the Ministry to develop a stronger understanding of the scale and type of eLearning activity taking place across Ontario In its 2011-2012 MYAA Report Back Humber College provided information on eLearning that expanded on the information that was submitted in the Postsecondary eLearning Survey and contributed to establishing a general baseline of student participation and demand in online courses and programs As part of the ongoing development of performance indicators that reflect current government priorities for eLearning and that will contribute to the Ministrys future priorities on technology-enabled learning Humber College is asked to provide information on eLearning courses programs and registrations in 2012-2013 Fully Online Learning and Synchronous Conferencing DEFINITIONS Courses A Fully Online Learning (asynchronous) course is a form of distance learning delivered to individuals with access to the Internet either at home work or through an access centre Although courses may have a set start date and set due dates for assignments students can otherwise access and participate in courses at times and places of their own choosing The online component is typically over 80 of the total delivery For example a fully online course may include occasional face-to-face meetings a proctored exam etc with the remainder of the content delivered online

A Synchronous Conferencing course is delivered through audio and video conferencing to provide synchronous communications (ie at the same time) between an instructor at one site and students at other sites Conferencing can make use of the public telephone system (ISDN) dedicated wideband networks or the Internet A course is considered to be offered via synchronous conferencing if 80 or more of the content is delivered this way For example a synchronous conferencing course may have occasional face-to-face meetings a proctored exam etc with the remainder of the content delivered through audio and video conferencing Programs A Fully Online Learning (asynchronous) program describes a program which is considered to be fully online if 80 or more of its courses are fully online courses As an example suppose a program consisted of 10 courses where 8 courses are delivered fully online and 2 courses are delivered via traditional face-to-face In this case 80 of courses in the program are fully online and the program is defined as a fully online program

Currently Humber College only runs a handful of hybrid courses per the Ministry definition This type of delivery method is not widely used at the College

Humber College was quite active and aggressive in building new online content during the 2012-2013 academic year building close to 100 new online courses Sixty of these courses were language courses The online language courses are unique in that they leverage the Tell Me More language software platform that allows students to experience ldquolanguage immersionrdquo Using our current LMS the Tell Me More link and SCORM packages were embedded into each language course and the course was then supplemented with additional methods of evaluation discussion boards and a live facultystudent chat session using virtual classroom software Both professional and everyday language courses were built over a six month period and are now being offered through Humber College and OntarioLearn

Humber College continues to grow the online course catalogue and we look forward to making a similar investment in upgrading our online courses in the 2013-2014 academic year

4 Describe how Humber is ensuring that diploma graduates have access to degree programs and how many graduates access degree education To meet the needs of all postsecondary learners Humber offers several pathways from diploma programs into degree programs The first pathway is for students to transfer from a Humber diploma program to a Humber degree program As an Institute of Technology and Advanced Learning Humber is able to offer up to 15 per cent of its programs at the baccalaureate degree level In 2012-2013 Humber offered 17 degrees (plus nursing) Humber currently represents just over 31 per cent of all college degree enrolment in Ontario In September 2013 this number will increase to 21 degree programs (plus nursing) and over the next five to seven years Humber plans to offer approximately 25 to 30 baccalaureate degrees that resonate with potential students and respond to labour market demands All new degrees have pathways for diploma students from Humber or any other Ontario college In Fall 2012 64 students transferred from Humber Diploma to Humber Degree programs

The second pathway ensuring degree access is from a Humber diploma into a Guelph-Humber degree program The University of Guelph-Humber is located on Humberrsquos North Campus offering over 3850 students seven undergraduate degree programs Students are able to transfer from a number of Humber diploma programs including

bull Business Administration rarr Hon Bachelor of Business Administration bull Early Childhood Education rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Early Childhood bull Social Service Worker rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Family amp Community

Finally students can build from one credential to another through transfer credit opportunities with more than 50 Canadian and international universities For students wishing to transfer from a diploma to a degree without the requirements several of Humberrsquos programs offer bridging courses over the summer months to ensure a seamless transition

5 Describe how Humberrsquos applied research activity supports its mission as a differentiated institution

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 79

At Humber research activity is directly tied to teaching and learning Applied research helps faculty members to create learning experiences that engage students in activities that take classroom learning into the workplace Applied research projects also help students to be workplace ready by reinforcing employability skills In addition applied research opportunities motivate faculty members to remain current in their areas of expertise and to continue to contribute to new knowledge in their fields

Applied research and innovation activities are evident in four main areas in the classroom including capstone projects through funded projects with industry partners through internally funded projects and at the Innovation Humber Incubator Both industry funded partnerships and internally funded projects offer research assistantships for students This year 58 students were engaged in a total of 12 funded projects and another 21 students were supported in entrepreneurial venture start-ups

Externally Funded Projects Externally funded projects with industry partners included three new CONII projects where students and faculty work with industry partners to respond to industry needs

i The CSMB-TV project engaged students and faculty in the School of Media Studies

and Information Technology (SMSIT) to create a platform for the launch of a web-based television network to serve small and medium-sized businesses and entrepreneurs This initial project has established a partnership that we confidently anticipate will lead to several new projects with SMSIT and other schools at Humber

ii A second project with industry partner Adam Bienenstock Natural Playgrounds

focused on gathering baseline data for future research Students from the Early Childhood Education (ECE) diploma and degree programs learned new research skills in the process of gathering and coding information about childrenrsquos play in the existing playground This summer a new outdoor learning environment will replace the playground to create a living laboratory for students faculty and other researchers interested in learning more about childrenrsquos engagement with the natural environment

iii A third project in collaboration with industry partner Cell 8 Games provided students

from the Game Programmer program with the opportunity to develop a new video game from the ideal phase to a working prototype which Cell 8 Games will commercialize and launch

Humber received its first National Science and Engineering Research Council CollegeUniversity Idea to Innovation (NSERC CU I2I) grant this year A faculty member in the School of Applied Technology will work with partners at Carleton University and industry partner MS Filters on a project to develop a new water treatment technology process for remote and northern communities Workstudy students from the Civil Engineering Technology program will participate in this project

Staff Initiated Research Fund (SIRF)

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 80

Humber provided funding for seven new staff initiated research projects through the SIRF program These projects enable faculty to pursue research interests that will engage student research assistants outside the classroom and which may lead to larger projects with industry partners For example the Natural Playgrounds project began as a SIRF project investigating preschool childrenrsquos responses to the natural world This year faculty and students engaged in projects ranging from creating a videogame to increase student engagement to investigating how consumers understand food nutrition labels Innovation Humber Incubator (IHI) Since its launch in 2012 the Innovation Humber Incubator funded by a grant from Ontario Centers of Excellence has launched a total of 31 ventures ndash 10 in 2011-12 and 21 in 2012-13 Students invited into the incubator in 2012-13 include those who applied for support from the New Venture Seed Fund as well as those who competed in the Friendly Fire Pitch Competition At present participating ventures range from an urban farming solution to a new fitness venture Students who participate in the IHI program are provided with mentors business resources and other support In exchange they agree that Humber may track their progress through their first year as a start-up Research in Teaching and Learning Humber has also been active in the area of research in teaching and learning and has received funding for participation in two projects through the Higher Education Quality Council of Ontario (HEQCO) The first piloted a tool for assessing student learning in generic skills using the Collegiate Learning Assessment (CLA) The second is a pilot project to develop a unique tool to measure student progress in genericemployability skills These projects complement our engagement in applied research projects that enhance studentsrsquo employability skills Humber Research continues to actively pursue opportunities to engage in applied research with industry partners who can provide our students with engagement with current industry problems and challenges With the amalgamation of CONII (Colleges Ontario Network for Industry Innovation) and Ontario Centers of Excellence we anticipate expanded opportunities for funded applied research projects that will create meaningful experiences for students and faculty alike

Applied research and innovation activities are evident in four main areas in the classroom including capstone projects through funded projects with industry partners through internally funded projects and at the Innovation Humber Incubator Both industry funded partnerships and internally funded projects offer research assistantships for students This year 58 students were engaged in a total of 12 funded projects and another 21 students were supported in entrepreneurial venture start-ups

Externally Funded Projects Externally funded projects with industry partners included three new CONII projects where students and faculty work with industry partners to respond to industry needs

i The CSMB-TV project engaged students and faculty in the School of Media Studies

and Information Technology (SMSIT) to create a platform for the launch of a web-based television network to serve small and medium-sized businesses and entrepreneurs This initial project has established a partnership that we confidently anticipate will lead to several new projects with SMSIT and other schools at Humber

ii A second project with industry partner Adam Bienenstock Natural Playgrounds

focused on gathering baseline data for future research Students from the Early Childhood Education (ECE) diploma and degree programs learned new research skills in the process of gathering and coding information about childrenrsquos play in the existing playground This summer a new outdoor learning environment will replace the playground to create a living laboratory for students faculty and other researchers interested in learning more about childrenrsquos engagement with the natural environment

iii A third project in collaboration with industry partner Cell 8 Games provided students

from the Game Programmer program with the opportunity to develop a new video game from the ideal phase to a working prototype which Cell 8 Games will commercialize and launch

Humber received its first National Science and Engineering Research Council CollegeUniversity Idea to Innovation (NSERC CU I2I) grant this year A faculty member in the School of Applied Technology will work with partners at Carleton University and industry partner MS Filters on a project to develop a new water treatment technology process for remote and northern communities Workstudy students from the Civil Engineering Technology program will participate in this project

Staff Initiated Research Fund (SIRF)

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 80

Humber provided funding for seven new staff initiated research projects through the SIRF program These projects enable faculty to pursue research interests that will engage student research assistants outside the classroom and which may lead to larger projects with industry partners For example the Natural Playgrounds project began as a SIRF project investigating preschool childrenrsquos responses to the natural world This year faculty and students engaged in projects ranging from creating a videogame to increase student engagement to investigating how consumers understand food nutrition labels Innovation Humber Incubator (IHI) Since its launch in 2012 the Innovation Humber Incubator funded by a grant from Ontario Centers of Excellence has launched a total of 31 ventures ndash 10 in 2011-12 and 21 in 2012-13 Students invited into the incubator in 2012-13 include those who applied for support from the New Venture Seed Fund as well as those who competed in the Friendly Fire Pitch Competition At present participating ventures range from an urban farming solution to a new fitness venture Students who participate in the IHI program are provided with mentors business resources and other support In exchange they agree that Humber may track their progress through their first year as a start-up Research in Teaching and Learning Humber has also been active in the area of research in teaching and learning and has received funding for participation in two projects through the Higher Education Quality Council of Ontario (HEQCO) The first piloted a tool for assessing student learning in generic skills using the Collegiate Learning Assessment (CLA) The second is a pilot project to develop a unique tool to measure student progress in genericemployability skills These projects complement our engagement in applied research projects that enhance studentsrsquo employability skills Humber Research continues to actively pursue opportunities to engage in applied research with industry partners who can provide our students with engagement with current industry problems and challenges With the amalgamation of CONII (Colleges Ontario Network for Industry Innovation) and Ontario Centers of Excellence we anticipate expanded opportunities for funded applied research projects that will create meaningful experiences for students and faculty alike

Please provide one or more highlights in the space provided below of an activity that Humber College used during 2012-2013 and which contributed to maintaining or improving Humber Colleges efforts to develop and enhance credit transfer A highlight could be a strategy a transfer pathway (ie transfer policies specifically defined credits or a defined entry point new or expanded agreements) changes to student supports or program viewed by Humber College to be an innovative practice a success story andor a key accomplishment In addition Humber College may if desired identify below any factors such as program mix that affected credit transfer graduate survey outcomes

41) Expanding Transfer Pathways excluding collaborative degree programs without a transfer pathway (eg expanding bilateral articulation agreements to multilateral agreements newrevised policies with specifically defined credits or defined entry point pathway projects to support college to college or college to university transfer etc)

Humber continues to develop a unique system of internal pathways between certificate diploma and degree programs As an Institute of Technology and Advanced Learning Humber is able to offer up to 15 per cent of its programs at the baccalaureate degree level In 2012-2013 Humber offered 17 degrees (plus Nursing) which represents 31 per cent of all college degree enrolment in Ontario As of September 2013 this number increased to 21 degree programs (plus Nursing) and over the next five to seven years Humber plans to offer additional baccalaureate degrees that resonate with potential students and respond to labour market demands All new degrees have pathways for diploma students from Humber or any other Ontario college In fall 2012 64 students transferred from Humber Diploma to Humber Degree programs Additional internal pathways include Humber diploma into University of Guelph-Humber degree programs The University of Guelph-Humber is located on Humberrsquos North Campus offering over 3800 students seven undergraduate degree programs Students are able to transfer from a number of Humber diploma programs affording students the opportunity to earn both a degree and a diploma after four years of full-time study as well as participate in hands-on workplace experience Humber is also focused on building external pathways We actively pursue the development of collaborative programs and formal transfer agreements with a variety of postsecondary institutions Currently Humber students can build from one credential to another through transfer credit opportunities In 2012-2013 Humber expanded its marketing and promotion of existing and new transfer agreements to ensure students are aware of all their options Efforts included visits to relevant diploma classes and site visits to Sault College and Canadore College for on-site admissions and information sessions Degree completion options were promoted through sessions with guidance counsellors locally through four dialogue sessions across the province and additional focus on degree completion in recruitment presentations It is also important to note that there are several pathways into Humber Students can also move from a university degree into one of Humberrsquos 35 graduate certificate programs which enrolled 1873 students in fall 2012 In the apprenticeship stream lateral transfers from apprenticeship to postsecondary are possible at several levels Students with related educational experience can apply for prior learning assessment and recognition exemptions when transferring between credentials Humber continues to market and promote existing and new transfer agreements to ensure students are aware of the variety of options available to them Further details and progress regarding transfer pathways are available in Humberrsquos comprehensive 2012-2013 Annual Report at wwwhumbercacontentpublications

42) Providing Support Services for Transfer Students (including student transition experienceactivities and supports to promote student success)

43) Improving Transparency and Access to Information about Credit Transfer and Transfer Pathways

Humber continues to offer a broad range of resources to ensure the success of all students including peer tutors counseling services learning skills workshops and an array of extracurricular engagement opportunities spanning from athletics to volunteer work To support transfer students through their transition and onwards students are encouraged to speak with Humber academic counsellors within their individual school of study to discuss their options and plan their next steps towards academic success and their eventual career Also in 2012-2013 Humber developed a position for a designated individual responsible for assisting transfer students both internally and externally This single point of contact provides students with improved access to information regarding credit transfer and the options available to them

In 2012-2013 Humber improved its credit transfer webpages to ensure access to the most comprehensive information regarding admission and advanced standing opportunities into many degree programs Information is available for graduates of a related diploma graduates of an unrelated diploma students with partially completed diploma programs as well as students who have completed or attended a Canadian University International postsecondary institutions or private career colleges

Humber also successfully implemented the second year of the Credit Transfer Innovation Fund Activities included

- system development to track transfer credit students - tracking and updating of equivalency database and synchronization with ONCAT transfer database - successful transfer credit advising pilot within the existing high school visit program - liaison with other PSE institutions to build awareness of existing transfer options between diploma and degree

6) eLearning

The Government of Ontario in the recently released discussion paper Strengthening Ontarios Centres of Creativity Innovation and Knowledge included a section regarding online learning as a potential method to increase access for all learners particularly those who are prevented from attending in-class education as a result of barriers that may be financial geographic physical family-related or work-related In spring 2010 the Ministry conducted a postsecondary survey on eLearning activity and plans that proved to be very useful in helping the Ministry to develop a stronger understanding of the scale and type of eLearning activity taking place across Ontario In its 2011-2012 MYAA Report Back Humber College provided information on eLearning that expanded on the information that was submitted in the Postsecondary eLearning Survey and contributed to establishing a general baseline of student participation and demand in online courses and programs As part of the ongoing development of performance indicators that reflect current government priorities for eLearning and that will contribute to the Ministrys future priorities on technology-enabled learning Humber College is asked to provide information on eLearning courses programs and registrations in 2012-2013 Fully Online Learning and Synchronous Conferencing DEFINITIONS Courses A Fully Online Learning (asynchronous) course is a form of distance learning delivered to individuals with access to the Internet either at home work or through an access centre Although courses may have a set start date and set due dates for assignments students can otherwise access and participate in courses at times and places of their own choosing The online component is typically over 80 of the total delivery For example a fully online course may include occasional face-to-face meetings a proctored exam etc with the remainder of the content delivered online

A Synchronous Conferencing course is delivered through audio and video conferencing to provide synchronous communications (ie at the same time) between an instructor at one site and students at other sites Conferencing can make use of the public telephone system (ISDN) dedicated wideband networks or the Internet A course is considered to be offered via synchronous conferencing if 80 or more of the content is delivered this way For example a synchronous conferencing course may have occasional face-to-face meetings a proctored exam etc with the remainder of the content delivered through audio and video conferencing Programs A Fully Online Learning (asynchronous) program describes a program which is considered to be fully online if 80 or more of its courses are fully online courses As an example suppose a program consisted of 10 courses where 8 courses are delivered fully online and 2 courses are delivered via traditional face-to-face In this case 80 of courses in the program are fully online and the program is defined as a fully online program

A Synchronous Conferencing program describes a program which is considered to be offered via synchronous conferencing if 80 or more of its courses are delivered via synchronous conferencing and 2 courses are delivered via traditional face-to-face In this case 80 of courses in the program are delivered via synchronous conferencing and the program is defined as a synchronous conferencing program

Currently Humber College only runs a handful of hybrid courses per the Ministry definition This type of delivery method is not widely used at the College

Humber College was quite active and aggressive in building new online content during the 2012-2013 academic year building close to 100 new online courses Sixty of these courses were language courses The online language courses are unique in that they leverage the Tell Me More language software platform that allows students to experience ldquolanguage immersionrdquo Using our current LMS the Tell Me More link and SCORM packages were embedded into each language course and the course was then supplemented with additional methods of evaluation discussion boards and a live facultystudent chat session using virtual classroom software Both professional and everyday language courses were built over a six month period and are now being offered through Humber College and OntarioLearn

Humber College continues to grow the online course catalogue and we look forward to making a similar investment in upgrading our online courses in the 2013-2014 academic year

4 Describe how Humber is ensuring that diploma graduates have access to degree programs and how many graduates access degree education To meet the needs of all postsecondary learners Humber offers several pathways from diploma programs into degree programs The first pathway is for students to transfer from a Humber diploma program to a Humber degree program As an Institute of Technology and Advanced Learning Humber is able to offer up to 15 per cent of its programs at the baccalaureate degree level In 2012-2013 Humber offered 17 degrees (plus nursing) Humber currently represents just over 31 per cent of all college degree enrolment in Ontario In September 2013 this number will increase to 21 degree programs (plus nursing) and over the next five to seven years Humber plans to offer approximately 25 to 30 baccalaureate degrees that resonate with potential students and respond to labour market demands All new degrees have pathways for diploma students from Humber or any other Ontario college In Fall 2012 64 students transferred from Humber Diploma to Humber Degree programs

The second pathway ensuring degree access is from a Humber diploma into a Guelph-Humber degree program The University of Guelph-Humber is located on Humberrsquos North Campus offering over 3850 students seven undergraduate degree programs Students are able to transfer from a number of Humber diploma programs including

bull Business Administration rarr Hon Bachelor of Business Administration bull Early Childhood Education rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Early Childhood bull Social Service Worker rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Family amp Community

Social Services bull Police Foundations rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Justice Studies bull Fitness amp Health Promotion rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Kinesiology bull Media Communications rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Arts in Media Studies bull General Arts amp Science University Transfer certificate rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied

Science in Psychology

Since the launch of Guelph-Humber over 590 students have transferred from Humber Diploma to Guelph-Humber Degree programs

Finally students can build from one credential to another through transfer credit opportunities with more than 50 Canadian and international universities For students wishing to transfer from a diploma to a degree without the requirements several of Humberrsquos programs offer bridging courses over the summer months to ensure a seamless transition

5 Describe how Humberrsquos applied research activity supports its mission as a differentiated institution

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 79

At Humber research activity is directly tied to teaching and learning Applied research helps faculty members to create learning experiences that engage students in activities that take classroom learning into the workplace Applied research projects also help students to be workplace ready by reinforcing employability skills In addition applied research opportunities motivate faculty members to remain current in their areas of expertise and to continue to contribute to new knowledge in their fields

Applied research and innovation activities are evident in four main areas in the classroom including capstone projects through funded projects with industry partners through internally funded projects and at the Innovation Humber Incubator Both industry funded partnerships and internally funded projects offer research assistantships for students This year 58 students were engaged in a total of 12 funded projects and another 21 students were supported in entrepreneurial venture start-ups

Externally Funded Projects Externally funded projects with industry partners included three new CONII projects where students and faculty work with industry partners to respond to industry needs

i The CSMB-TV project engaged students and faculty in the School of Media Studies

and Information Technology (SMSIT) to create a platform for the launch of a web-based television network to serve small and medium-sized businesses and entrepreneurs This initial project has established a partnership that we confidently anticipate will lead to several new projects with SMSIT and other schools at Humber

ii A second project with industry partner Adam Bienenstock Natural Playgrounds

focused on gathering baseline data for future research Students from the Early Childhood Education (ECE) diploma and degree programs learned new research skills in the process of gathering and coding information about childrenrsquos play in the existing playground This summer a new outdoor learning environment will replace the playground to create a living laboratory for students faculty and other researchers interested in learning more about childrenrsquos engagement with the natural environment

iii A third project in collaboration with industry partner Cell 8 Games provided students

from the Game Programmer program with the opportunity to develop a new video game from the ideal phase to a working prototype which Cell 8 Games will commercialize and launch

Humber received its first National Science and Engineering Research Council CollegeUniversity Idea to Innovation (NSERC CU I2I) grant this year A faculty member in the School of Applied Technology will work with partners at Carleton University and industry partner MS Filters on a project to develop a new water treatment technology process for remote and northern communities Workstudy students from the Civil Engineering Technology program will participate in this project

Staff Initiated Research Fund (SIRF)

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 80

Humber provided funding for seven new staff initiated research projects through the SIRF program These projects enable faculty to pursue research interests that will engage student research assistants outside the classroom and which may lead to larger projects with industry partners For example the Natural Playgrounds project began as a SIRF project investigating preschool childrenrsquos responses to the natural world This year faculty and students engaged in projects ranging from creating a videogame to increase student engagement to investigating how consumers understand food nutrition labels Innovation Humber Incubator (IHI) Since its launch in 2012 the Innovation Humber Incubator funded by a grant from Ontario Centers of Excellence has launched a total of 31 ventures ndash 10 in 2011-12 and 21 in 2012-13 Students invited into the incubator in 2012-13 include those who applied for support from the New Venture Seed Fund as well as those who competed in the Friendly Fire Pitch Competition At present participating ventures range from an urban farming solution to a new fitness venture Students who participate in the IHI program are provided with mentors business resources and other support In exchange they agree that Humber may track their progress through their first year as a start-up Research in Teaching and Learning Humber has also been active in the area of research in teaching and learning and has received funding for participation in two projects through the Higher Education Quality Council of Ontario (HEQCO) The first piloted a tool for assessing student learning in generic skills using the Collegiate Learning Assessment (CLA) The second is a pilot project to develop a unique tool to measure student progress in genericemployability skills These projects complement our engagement in applied research projects that enhance studentsrsquo employability skills Humber Research continues to actively pursue opportunities to engage in applied research with industry partners who can provide our students with engagement with current industry problems and challenges With the amalgamation of CONII (Colleges Ontario Network for Industry Innovation) and Ontario Centers of Excellence we anticipate expanded opportunities for funded applied research projects that will create meaningful experiences for students and faculty alike

Please provide one or more highlights in the space provided below of an activity that Humber College used during 2012-2013 and which contributed to maintaining or improving Humber Colleges efforts to develop and enhance credit transfer A highlight could be a strategy a transfer pathway (ie transfer policies specifically defined credits or a defined entry point new or expanded agreements) changes to student supports or program viewed by Humber College to be an innovative practice a success story andor a key accomplishment In addition Humber College may if desired identify below any factors such as program mix that affected credit transfer graduate survey outcomes

41) Expanding Transfer Pathways excluding collaborative degree programs without a transfer pathway (eg expanding bilateral articulation agreements to multilateral agreements newrevised policies with specifically defined credits or defined entry point pathway projects to support college to college or college to university transfer etc)

Humber continues to develop a unique system of internal pathways between certificate diploma and degree programs As an Institute of Technology and Advanced Learning Humber is able to offer up to 15 per cent of its programs at the baccalaureate degree level In 2012-2013 Humber offered 17 degrees (plus Nursing) which represents 31 per cent of all college degree enrolment in Ontario As of September 2013 this number increased to 21 degree programs (plus Nursing) and over the next five to seven years Humber plans to offer additional baccalaureate degrees that resonate with potential students and respond to labour market demands All new degrees have pathways for diploma students from Humber or any other Ontario college In fall 2012 64 students transferred from Humber Diploma to Humber Degree programs Additional internal pathways include Humber diploma into University of Guelph-Humber degree programs The University of Guelph-Humber is located on Humberrsquos North Campus offering over 3800 students seven undergraduate degree programs Students are able to transfer from a number of Humber diploma programs affording students the opportunity to earn both a degree and a diploma after four years of full-time study as well as participate in hands-on workplace experience Humber is also focused on building external pathways We actively pursue the development of collaborative programs and formal transfer agreements with a variety of postsecondary institutions Currently Humber students can build from one credential to another through transfer credit opportunities In 2012-2013 Humber expanded its marketing and promotion of existing and new transfer agreements to ensure students are aware of all their options Efforts included visits to relevant diploma classes and site visits to Sault College and Canadore College for on-site admissions and information sessions Degree completion options were promoted through sessions with guidance counsellors locally through four dialogue sessions across the province and additional focus on degree completion in recruitment presentations It is also important to note that there are several pathways into Humber Students can also move from a university degree into one of Humberrsquos 35 graduate certificate programs which enrolled 1873 students in fall 2012 In the apprenticeship stream lateral transfers from apprenticeship to postsecondary are possible at several levels Students with related educational experience can apply for prior learning assessment and recognition exemptions when transferring between credentials Humber continues to market and promote existing and new transfer agreements to ensure students are aware of the variety of options available to them Further details and progress regarding transfer pathways are available in Humberrsquos comprehensive 2012-2013 Annual Report at wwwhumbercacontentpublications

42) Providing Support Services for Transfer Students (including student transition experienceactivities and supports to promote student success)

43) Improving Transparency and Access to Information about Credit Transfer and Transfer Pathways

Humber continues to offer a broad range of resources to ensure the success of all students including peer tutors counseling services learning skills workshops and an array of extracurricular engagement opportunities spanning from athletics to volunteer work To support transfer students through their transition and onwards students are encouraged to speak with Humber academic counsellors within their individual school of study to discuss their options and plan their next steps towards academic success and their eventual career Also in 2012-2013 Humber developed a position for a designated individual responsible for assisting transfer students both internally and externally This single point of contact provides students with improved access to information regarding credit transfer and the options available to them

In 2012-2013 Humber improved its credit transfer webpages to ensure access to the most comprehensive information regarding admission and advanced standing opportunities into many degree programs Information is available for graduates of a related diploma graduates of an unrelated diploma students with partially completed diploma programs as well as students who have completed or attended a Canadian University International postsecondary institutions or private career colleges

Humber also successfully implemented the second year of the Credit Transfer Innovation Fund Activities included

- system development to track transfer credit students - tracking and updating of equivalency database and synchronization with ONCAT transfer database - successful transfer credit advising pilot within the existing high school visit program - liaison with other PSE institutions to build awareness of existing transfer options between diploma and degree

6) eLearning

The Government of Ontario in the recently released discussion paper Strengthening Ontarios Centres of Creativity Innovation and Knowledge included a section regarding online learning as a potential method to increase access for all learners particularly those who are prevented from attending in-class education as a result of barriers that may be financial geographic physical family-related or work-related In spring 2010 the Ministry conducted a postsecondary survey on eLearning activity and plans that proved to be very useful in helping the Ministry to develop a stronger understanding of the scale and type of eLearning activity taking place across Ontario In its 2011-2012 MYAA Report Back Humber College provided information on eLearning that expanded on the information that was submitted in the Postsecondary eLearning Survey and contributed to establishing a general baseline of student participation and demand in online courses and programs As part of the ongoing development of performance indicators that reflect current government priorities for eLearning and that will contribute to the Ministrys future priorities on technology-enabled learning Humber College is asked to provide information on eLearning courses programs and registrations in 2012-2013 Fully Online Learning and Synchronous Conferencing DEFINITIONS Courses A Fully Online Learning (asynchronous) course is a form of distance learning delivered to individuals with access to the Internet either at home work or through an access centre Although courses may have a set start date and set due dates for assignments students can otherwise access and participate in courses at times and places of their own choosing The online component is typically over 80 of the total delivery For example a fully online course may include occasional face-to-face meetings a proctored exam etc with the remainder of the content delivered online

A Synchronous Conferencing course is delivered through audio and video conferencing to provide synchronous communications (ie at the same time) between an instructor at one site and students at other sites Conferencing can make use of the public telephone system (ISDN) dedicated wideband networks or the Internet A course is considered to be offered via synchronous conferencing if 80 or more of the content is delivered this way For example a synchronous conferencing course may have occasional face-to-face meetings a proctored exam etc with the remainder of the content delivered through audio and video conferencing Programs A Fully Online Learning (asynchronous) program describes a program which is considered to be fully online if 80 or more of its courses are fully online courses As an example suppose a program consisted of 10 courses where 8 courses are delivered fully online and 2 courses are delivered via traditional face-to-face In this case 80 of courses in the program are fully online and the program is defined as a fully online program

A Synchronous Conferencing program describes a program which is considered to be offered via synchronous conferencing if 80 or more of its courses are delivered via synchronous conferencing and 2 courses are delivered via traditional face-to-face In this case 80 of courses in the program are delivered via synchronous conferencing and the program is defined as a synchronous conferencing program

Hybrid Learning DEFINITIONS A Hybrid Learning course is a course where face-to-face teaching time is reduced but not eliminated to allow students more time for online study This model comes in a number of formats however the online component is typically 50-80 of the total course delivery In this case a hybrid learning course may have components delivered via traditional face-to-face however over half of the course delivery should be online A Hybrid Learning program is a program in which 80 or more of its courses are hybrid learning courses In the space provided below please highlight one or more examples of Humber Colleges use of Hybrid Learning courses andor programs in 2012-2013 Please provide one or more highlights in the space provided below of an activity that Humber College used during 2012-2013 which contributed to maintaining or improving Humber Colleges eLearning initiatives This could be a strategy initiative or program viewed by Humber College to be an innovative practice success story andor key accomplishment that Humber College would like to highlight

Currently Humber College only runs a handful of hybrid courses per the Ministry definition This type of delivery method is not widely used at the College

Humber College was quite active and aggressive in building new online content during the 2012-2013 academic year building close to 100 new online courses Sixty of these courses were language courses The online language courses are unique in that they leverage the Tell Me More language software platform that allows students to experience ldquolanguage immersionrdquo Using our current LMS the Tell Me More link and SCORM packages were embedded into each language course and the course was then supplemented with additional methods of evaluation discussion boards and a live facultystudent chat session using virtual classroom software Both professional and everyday language courses were built over a six month period and are now being offered through Humber College and OntarioLearn

Humber College continues to grow the online course catalogue and we look forward to making a similar investment in upgrading our online courses in the 2013-2014 academic year

4 Describe how Humber is ensuring that diploma graduates have access to degree programs and how many graduates access degree education To meet the needs of all postsecondary learners Humber offers several pathways from diploma programs into degree programs The first pathway is for students to transfer from a Humber diploma program to a Humber degree program As an Institute of Technology and Advanced Learning Humber is able to offer up to 15 per cent of its programs at the baccalaureate degree level In 2012-2013 Humber offered 17 degrees (plus nursing) Humber currently represents just over 31 per cent of all college degree enrolment in Ontario In September 2013 this number will increase to 21 degree programs (plus nursing) and over the next five to seven years Humber plans to offer approximately 25 to 30 baccalaureate degrees that resonate with potential students and respond to labour market demands All new degrees have pathways for diploma students from Humber or any other Ontario college In Fall 2012 64 students transferred from Humber Diploma to Humber Degree programs

The second pathway ensuring degree access is from a Humber diploma into a Guelph-Humber degree program The University of Guelph-Humber is located on Humberrsquos North Campus offering over 3850 students seven undergraduate degree programs Students are able to transfer from a number of Humber diploma programs including

bull Business Administration rarr Hon Bachelor of Business Administration bull Early Childhood Education rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Early Childhood bull Social Service Worker rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Family amp Community

Social Services bull Police Foundations rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Justice Studies bull Fitness amp Health Promotion rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Kinesiology bull Media Communications rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Arts in Media Studies bull General Arts amp Science University Transfer certificate rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied

Science in Psychology

Since the launch of Guelph-Humber over 590 students have transferred from Humber Diploma to Guelph-Humber Degree programs

Finally students can build from one credential to another through transfer credit opportunities with more than 50 Canadian and international universities For students wishing to transfer from a diploma to a degree without the requirements several of Humberrsquos programs offer bridging courses over the summer months to ensure a seamless transition

5 Describe how Humberrsquos applied research activity supports its mission as a differentiated institution

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 79

At Humber research activity is directly tied to teaching and learning Applied research helps faculty members to create learning experiences that engage students in activities that take classroom learning into the workplace Applied research projects also help students to be workplace ready by reinforcing employability skills In addition applied research opportunities motivate faculty members to remain current in their areas of expertise and to continue to contribute to new knowledge in their fields

Applied research and innovation activities are evident in four main areas in the classroom including capstone projects through funded projects with industry partners through internally funded projects and at the Innovation Humber Incubator Both industry funded partnerships and internally funded projects offer research assistantships for students This year 58 students were engaged in a total of 12 funded projects and another 21 students were supported in entrepreneurial venture start-ups

Externally Funded Projects Externally funded projects with industry partners included three new CONII projects where students and faculty work with industry partners to respond to industry needs

i The CSMB-TV project engaged students and faculty in the School of Media Studies

and Information Technology (SMSIT) to create a platform for the launch of a web-based television network to serve small and medium-sized businesses and entrepreneurs This initial project has established a partnership that we confidently anticipate will lead to several new projects with SMSIT and other schools at Humber

ii A second project with industry partner Adam Bienenstock Natural Playgrounds

focused on gathering baseline data for future research Students from the Early Childhood Education (ECE) diploma and degree programs learned new research skills in the process of gathering and coding information about childrenrsquos play in the existing playground This summer a new outdoor learning environment will replace the playground to create a living laboratory for students faculty and other researchers interested in learning more about childrenrsquos engagement with the natural environment

iii A third project in collaboration with industry partner Cell 8 Games provided students

from the Game Programmer program with the opportunity to develop a new video game from the ideal phase to a working prototype which Cell 8 Games will commercialize and launch

Humber received its first National Science and Engineering Research Council CollegeUniversity Idea to Innovation (NSERC CU I2I) grant this year A faculty member in the School of Applied Technology will work with partners at Carleton University and industry partner MS Filters on a project to develop a new water treatment technology process for remote and northern communities Workstudy students from the Civil Engineering Technology program will participate in this project

Staff Initiated Research Fund (SIRF)

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 80

Humber provided funding for seven new staff initiated research projects through the SIRF program These projects enable faculty to pursue research interests that will engage student research assistants outside the classroom and which may lead to larger projects with industry partners For example the Natural Playgrounds project began as a SIRF project investigating preschool childrenrsquos responses to the natural world This year faculty and students engaged in projects ranging from creating a videogame to increase student engagement to investigating how consumers understand food nutrition labels Innovation Humber Incubator (IHI) Since its launch in 2012 the Innovation Humber Incubator funded by a grant from Ontario Centers of Excellence has launched a total of 31 ventures ndash 10 in 2011-12 and 21 in 2012-13 Students invited into the incubator in 2012-13 include those who applied for support from the New Venture Seed Fund as well as those who competed in the Friendly Fire Pitch Competition At present participating ventures range from an urban farming solution to a new fitness venture Students who participate in the IHI program are provided with mentors business resources and other support In exchange they agree that Humber may track their progress through their first year as a start-up Research in Teaching and Learning Humber has also been active in the area of research in teaching and learning and has received funding for participation in two projects through the Higher Education Quality Council of Ontario (HEQCO) The first piloted a tool for assessing student learning in generic skills using the Collegiate Learning Assessment (CLA) The second is a pilot project to develop a unique tool to measure student progress in genericemployability skills These projects complement our engagement in applied research projects that enhance studentsrsquo employability skills Humber Research continues to actively pursue opportunities to engage in applied research with industry partners who can provide our students with engagement with current industry problems and challenges With the amalgamation of CONII (Colleges Ontario Network for Industry Innovation) and Ontario Centers of Excellence we anticipate expanded opportunities for funded applied research projects that will create meaningful experiences for students and faculty alike

6) eLearning

The Government of Ontario in the recently released discussion paper Strengthening Ontarios Centres of Creativity Innovation and Knowledge included a section regarding online learning as a potential method to increase access for all learners particularly those who are prevented from attending in-class education as a result of barriers that may be financial geographic physical family-related or work-related In spring 2010 the Ministry conducted a postsecondary survey on eLearning activity and plans that proved to be very useful in helping the Ministry to develop a stronger understanding of the scale and type of eLearning activity taking place across Ontario In its 2011-2012 MYAA Report Back Humber College provided information on eLearning that expanded on the information that was submitted in the Postsecondary eLearning Survey and contributed to establishing a general baseline of student participation and demand in online courses and programs As part of the ongoing development of performance indicators that reflect current government priorities for eLearning and that will contribute to the Ministrys future priorities on technology-enabled learning Humber College is asked to provide information on eLearning courses programs and registrations in 2012-2013 Fully Online Learning and Synchronous Conferencing DEFINITIONS Courses A Fully Online Learning (asynchronous) course is a form of distance learning delivered to individuals with access to the Internet either at home work or through an access centre Although courses may have a set start date and set due dates for assignments students can otherwise access and participate in courses at times and places of their own choosing The online component is typically over 80 of the total delivery For example a fully online course may include occasional face-to-face meetings a proctored exam etc with the remainder of the content delivered online

A Synchronous Conferencing course is delivered through audio and video conferencing to provide synchronous communications (ie at the same time) between an instructor at one site and students at other sites Conferencing can make use of the public telephone system (ISDN) dedicated wideband networks or the Internet A course is considered to be offered via synchronous conferencing if 80 or more of the content is delivered this way For example a synchronous conferencing course may have occasional face-to-face meetings a proctored exam etc with the remainder of the content delivered through audio and video conferencing Programs A Fully Online Learning (asynchronous) program describes a program which is considered to be fully online if 80 or more of its courses are fully online courses As an example suppose a program consisted of 10 courses where 8 courses are delivered fully online and 2 courses are delivered via traditional face-to-face In this case 80 of courses in the program are fully online and the program is defined as a fully online program

A Synchronous Conferencing program describes a program which is considered to be offered via synchronous conferencing if 80 or more of its courses are delivered via synchronous conferencing and 2 courses are delivered via traditional face-to-face In this case 80 of courses in the program are delivered via synchronous conferencing and the program is defined as a synchronous conferencing program

Hybrid Learning DEFINITIONS A Hybrid Learning course is a course where face-to-face teaching time is reduced but not eliminated to allow students more time for online study This model comes in a number of formats however the online component is typically 50-80 of the total course delivery In this case a hybrid learning course may have components delivered via traditional face-to-face however over half of the course delivery should be online A Hybrid Learning program is a program in which 80 or more of its courses are hybrid learning courses In the space provided below please highlight one or more examples of Humber Colleges use of Hybrid Learning courses andor programs in 2012-2013 Please provide one or more highlights in the space provided below of an activity that Humber College used during 2012-2013 which contributed to maintaining or improving Humber Colleges eLearning initiatives This could be a strategy initiative or program viewed by Humber College to be an innovative practice success story andor key accomplishment that Humber College would like to highlight

Currently Humber College only runs a handful of hybrid courses per the Ministry definition This type of delivery method is not widely used at the College

Humber College was quite active and aggressive in building new online content during the 2012-2013 academic year building close to 100 new online courses Sixty of these courses were language courses The online language courses are unique in that they leverage the Tell Me More language software platform that allows students to experience ldquolanguage immersionrdquo Using our current LMS the Tell Me More link and SCORM packages were embedded into each language course and the course was then supplemented with additional methods of evaluation discussion boards and a live facultystudent chat session using virtual classroom software Both professional and everyday language courses were built over a six month period and are now being offered through Humber College and OntarioLearn

Humber College continues to grow the online course catalogue and we look forward to making a similar investment in upgrading our online courses in the 2013-2014 academic year

Humber provides the required components towards an apprenticeship including technical theory practical job experience and in-school training Students learn valuable skills by using the latest industry software programs and working in fully equipped up-to-date labs and shops At Humber skilled instructors highlight current trends within the industry and strive to duplicate situations that apprentices and skilled tradespeople will see in their everyday working life

Humber offered 12 apprenticeship programs in 2012-13

Apprenticeship Program 2012 Enrolment Arborist Apprenticeship 103 Baker 17 Cook (Cuisine) Apprenticeship 219 Chef Program for Journeyman Cooks - Culinary Co-op Diploma Apprenticeship - Construction Boilermaker Apprenticeship 189 Developmental Service Worker Apprenticeship 458 Electrician Construction and Maintenance Apprenticeship 1080 Industrial Electrician Apprenticeship 7 Institutional Cook 13 Horticultural Technician Apprenticeship 76 Network Cabling Specialist Apprenticeship 15 Plumber Apprenticeship 421 Solar Photovoltaic 20

TOTAL 2618

Lateral transfer from the apprenticeship stream to the postsecondary stream and vice versa is possible at several levels Students with related educational experience can apply for prior learning assessment and recognition exemptions when transferring between credentials In particular the development of a Qualifications Framework (attached) for our culinary apprenticeship programs has been supported through discussions between educators industry and the Canadian Tourism Resource Council

4 Describe how Humber is ensuring that diploma graduates have access to degree programs and how many graduates access degree education To meet the needs of all postsecondary learners Humber offers several pathways from diploma programs into degree programs The first pathway is for students to transfer from a Humber diploma program to a Humber degree program As an Institute of Technology and Advanced Learning Humber is able to offer up to 15 per cent of its programs at the baccalaureate degree level In 2012-2013 Humber offered 17 degrees (plus nursing) Humber currently represents just over 31 per cent of all college degree enrolment in Ontario In September 2013 this number will increase to 21 degree programs (plus nursing) and over the next five to seven years Humber plans to offer approximately 25 to 30 baccalaureate degrees that resonate with potential students and respond to labour market demands All new degrees have pathways for diploma students from Humber or any other Ontario college In Fall 2012 64 students transferred from Humber Diploma to Humber Degree programs

The second pathway ensuring degree access is from a Humber diploma into a Guelph-Humber degree program The University of Guelph-Humber is located on Humberrsquos North Campus offering over 3850 students seven undergraduate degree programs Students are able to transfer from a number of Humber diploma programs including

bull Business Administration rarr Hon Bachelor of Business Administration bull Early Childhood Education rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Early Childhood bull Social Service Worker rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Family amp Community

Social Services bull Police Foundations rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Justice Studies bull Fitness amp Health Promotion rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Kinesiology bull Media Communications rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Arts in Media Studies bull General Arts amp Science University Transfer certificate rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied

Science in Psychology

Since the launch of Guelph-Humber over 590 students have transferred from Humber Diploma to Guelph-Humber Degree programs

Finally students can build from one credential to another through transfer credit opportunities with more than 50 Canadian and international universities For students wishing to transfer from a diploma to a degree without the requirements several of Humberrsquos programs offer bridging courses over the summer months to ensure a seamless transition

5 Describe how Humberrsquos applied research activity supports its mission as a differentiated institution

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 79

At Humber research activity is directly tied to teaching and learning Applied research helps faculty members to create learning experiences that engage students in activities that take classroom learning into the workplace Applied research projects also help students to be workplace ready by reinforcing employability skills In addition applied research opportunities motivate faculty members to remain current in their areas of expertise and to continue to contribute to new knowledge in their fields

Applied research and innovation activities are evident in four main areas in the classroom including capstone projects through funded projects with industry partners through internally funded projects and at the Innovation Humber Incubator Both industry funded partnerships and internally funded projects offer research assistantships for students This year 58 students were engaged in a total of 12 funded projects and another 21 students were supported in entrepreneurial venture start-ups

Externally Funded Projects Externally funded projects with industry partners included three new CONII projects where students and faculty work with industry partners to respond to industry needs

i The CSMB-TV project engaged students and faculty in the School of Media Studies

and Information Technology (SMSIT) to create a platform for the launch of a web-based television network to serve small and medium-sized businesses and entrepreneurs This initial project has established a partnership that we confidently anticipate will lead to several new projects with SMSIT and other schools at Humber

ii A second project with industry partner Adam Bienenstock Natural Playgrounds

focused on gathering baseline data for future research Students from the Early Childhood Education (ECE) diploma and degree programs learned new research skills in the process of gathering and coding information about childrenrsquos play in the existing playground This summer a new outdoor learning environment will replace the playground to create a living laboratory for students faculty and other researchers interested in learning more about childrenrsquos engagement with the natural environment

iii A third project in collaboration with industry partner Cell 8 Games provided students

from the Game Programmer program with the opportunity to develop a new video game from the ideal phase to a working prototype which Cell 8 Games will commercialize and launch

Humber received its first National Science and Engineering Research Council CollegeUniversity Idea to Innovation (NSERC CU I2I) grant this year A faculty member in the School of Applied Technology will work with partners at Carleton University and industry partner MS Filters on a project to develop a new water treatment technology process for remote and northern communities Workstudy students from the Civil Engineering Technology program will participate in this project

Staff Initiated Research Fund (SIRF)

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 80

Humber provided funding for seven new staff initiated research projects through the SIRF program These projects enable faculty to pursue research interests that will engage student research assistants outside the classroom and which may lead to larger projects with industry partners For example the Natural Playgrounds project began as a SIRF project investigating preschool childrenrsquos responses to the natural world This year faculty and students engaged in projects ranging from creating a videogame to increase student engagement to investigating how consumers understand food nutrition labels Innovation Humber Incubator (IHI) Since its launch in 2012 the Innovation Humber Incubator funded by a grant from Ontario Centers of Excellence has launched a total of 31 ventures ndash 10 in 2011-12 and 21 in 2012-13 Students invited into the incubator in 2012-13 include those who applied for support from the New Venture Seed Fund as well as those who competed in the Friendly Fire Pitch Competition At present participating ventures range from an urban farming solution to a new fitness venture Students who participate in the IHI program are provided with mentors business resources and other support In exchange they agree that Humber may track their progress through their first year as a start-up Research in Teaching and Learning Humber has also been active in the area of research in teaching and learning and has received funding for participation in two projects through the Higher Education Quality Council of Ontario (HEQCO) The first piloted a tool for assessing student learning in generic skills using the Collegiate Learning Assessment (CLA) The second is a pilot project to develop a unique tool to measure student progress in genericemployability skills These projects complement our engagement in applied research projects that enhance studentsrsquo employability skills Humber Research continues to actively pursue opportunities to engage in applied research with industry partners who can provide our students with engagement with current industry problems and challenges With the amalgamation of CONII (Colleges Ontario Network for Industry Innovation) and Ontario Centers of Excellence we anticipate expanded opportunities for funded applied research projects that will create meaningful experiences for students and faculty alike

6) eLearning

The Government of Ontario in the recently released discussion paper Strengthening Ontarios Centres of Creativity Innovation and Knowledge included a section regarding online learning as a potential method to increase access for all learners particularly those who are prevented from attending in-class education as a result of barriers that may be financial geographic physical family-related or work-related In spring 2010 the Ministry conducted a postsecondary survey on eLearning activity and plans that proved to be very useful in helping the Ministry to develop a stronger understanding of the scale and type of eLearning activity taking place across Ontario In its 2011-2012 MYAA Report Back Humber College provided information on eLearning that expanded on the information that was submitted in the Postsecondary eLearning Survey and contributed to establishing a general baseline of student participation and demand in online courses and programs As part of the ongoing development of performance indicators that reflect current government priorities for eLearning and that will contribute to the Ministrys future priorities on technology-enabled learning Humber College is asked to provide information on eLearning courses programs and registrations in 2012-2013 Fully Online Learning and Synchronous Conferencing DEFINITIONS Courses A Fully Online Learning (asynchronous) course is a form of distance learning delivered to individuals with access to the Internet either at home work or through an access centre Although courses may have a set start date and set due dates for assignments students can otherwise access and participate in courses at times and places of their own choosing The online component is typically over 80 of the total delivery For example a fully online course may include occasional face-to-face meetings a proctored exam etc with the remainder of the content delivered online

A Synchronous Conferencing course is delivered through audio and video conferencing to provide synchronous communications (ie at the same time) between an instructor at one site and students at other sites Conferencing can make use of the public telephone system (ISDN) dedicated wideband networks or the Internet A course is considered to be offered via synchronous conferencing if 80 or more of the content is delivered this way For example a synchronous conferencing course may have occasional face-to-face meetings a proctored exam etc with the remainder of the content delivered through audio and video conferencing Programs A Fully Online Learning (asynchronous) program describes a program which is considered to be fully online if 80 or more of its courses are fully online courses As an example suppose a program consisted of 10 courses where 8 courses are delivered fully online and 2 courses are delivered via traditional face-to-face In this case 80 of courses in the program are fully online and the program is defined as a fully online program

A Synchronous Conferencing program describes a program which is considered to be offered via synchronous conferencing if 80 or more of its courses are delivered via synchronous conferencing and 2 courses are delivered via traditional face-to-face In this case 80 of courses in the program are delivered via synchronous conferencing and the program is defined as a synchronous conferencing program

4 Describe how Humber is ensuring that diploma graduates have access to degree programs and how many graduates access degree education To meet the needs of all postsecondary learners Humber offers several pathways from diploma programs into degree programs The first pathway is for students to transfer from a Humber diploma program to a Humber degree program As an Institute of Technology and Advanced Learning Humber is able to offer up to 15 per cent of its programs at the baccalaureate degree level In 2012-2013 Humber offered 17 degrees (plus nursing) Humber currently represents just over 31 per cent of all college degree enrolment in Ontario In September 2013 this number will increase to 21 degree programs (plus nursing) and over the next five to seven years Humber plans to offer approximately 25 to 30 baccalaureate degrees that resonate with potential students and respond to labour market demands All new degrees have pathways for diploma students from Humber or any other Ontario college In Fall 2012 64 students transferred from Humber Diploma to Humber Degree programs

The second pathway ensuring degree access is from a Humber diploma into a Guelph-Humber degree program The University of Guelph-Humber is located on Humberrsquos North Campus offering over 3850 students seven undergraduate degree programs Students are able to transfer from a number of Humber diploma programs including

bull Business Administration rarr Hon Bachelor of Business Administration bull Early Childhood Education rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Early Childhood bull Social Service Worker rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Family amp Community

Social Services bull Police Foundations rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Justice Studies bull Fitness amp Health Promotion rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Kinesiology bull Media Communications rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Arts in Media Studies bull General Arts amp Science University Transfer certificate rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied

Since the launch of Guelph-Humber over 590 students have transferred from Humber Diploma to Guelph-Humber Degree programs

Finally students can build from one credential to another through transfer credit opportunities with more than 50 Canadian and international universities For students wishing to transfer from a diploma to a degree without the requirements several of Humberrsquos programs offer bridging courses over the summer months to ensure a seamless transition

5 Describe how Humberrsquos applied research activity supports its mission as a differentiated institution

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 79

At Humber research activity is directly tied to teaching and learning Applied research helps faculty members to create learning experiences that engage students in activities that take classroom learning into the workplace Applied research projects also help students to be workplace ready by reinforcing employability skills In addition applied research opportunities motivate faculty members to remain current in their areas of expertise and to continue to contribute to new knowledge in their fields

Applied research and innovation activities are evident in four main areas in the classroom including capstone projects through funded projects with industry partners through internally funded projects and at the Innovation Humber Incubator Both industry funded partnerships and internally funded projects offer research assistantships for students This year 58 students were engaged in a total of 12 funded projects and another 21 students were supported in entrepreneurial venture start-ups

Externally Funded Projects Externally funded projects with industry partners included three new CONII projects where students and faculty work with industry partners to respond to industry needs

i The CSMB-TV project engaged students and faculty in the School of Media Studies

and Information Technology (SMSIT) to create a platform for the launch of a web-based television network to serve small and medium-sized businesses and entrepreneurs This initial project has established a partnership that we confidently anticipate will lead to several new projects with SMSIT and other schools at Humber

ii A second project with industry partner Adam Bienenstock Natural Playgrounds

focused on gathering baseline data for future research Students from the Early Childhood Education (ECE) diploma and degree programs learned new research skills in the process of gathering and coding information about childrenrsquos play in the existing playground This summer a new outdoor learning environment will replace the playground to create a living laboratory for students faculty and other researchers interested in learning more about childrenrsquos engagement with the natural environment

iii A third project in collaboration with industry partner Cell 8 Games provided students

from the Game Programmer program with the opportunity to develop a new video game from the ideal phase to a working prototype which Cell 8 Games will commercialize and launch

Humber received its first National Science and Engineering Research Council CollegeUniversity Idea to Innovation (NSERC CU I2I) grant this year A faculty member in the School of Applied Technology will work with partners at Carleton University and industry partner MS Filters on a project to develop a new water treatment technology process for remote and northern communities Workstudy students from the Civil Engineering Technology program will participate in this project

Staff Initiated Research Fund (SIRF)

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 80

Humber provided funding for seven new staff initiated research projects through the SIRF program These projects enable faculty to pursue research interests that will engage student research assistants outside the classroom and which may lead to larger projects with industry partners For example the Natural Playgrounds project began as a SIRF project investigating preschool childrenrsquos responses to the natural world This year faculty and students engaged in projects ranging from creating a videogame to increase student engagement to investigating how consumers understand food nutrition labels Innovation Humber Incubator (IHI) Since its launch in 2012 the Innovation Humber Incubator funded by a grant from Ontario Centers of Excellence has launched a total of 31 ventures ndash 10 in 2011-12 and 21 in 2012-13 Students invited into the incubator in 2012-13 include those who applied for support from the New Venture Seed Fund as well as those who competed in the Friendly Fire Pitch Competition At present participating ventures range from an urban farming solution to a new fitness venture Students who participate in the IHI program are provided with mentors business resources and other support In exchange they agree that Humber may track their progress through their first year as a start-up Research in Teaching and Learning Humber has also been active in the area of research in teaching and learning and has received funding for participation in two projects through the Higher Education Quality Council of Ontario (HEQCO) The first piloted a tool for assessing student learning in generic skills using the Collegiate Learning Assessment (CLA) The second is a pilot project to develop a unique tool to measure student progress in genericemployability skills These projects complement our engagement in applied research projects that enhance studentsrsquo employability skills Humber Research continues to actively pursue opportunities to engage in applied research with industry partners who can provide our students with engagement with current industry problems and challenges With the amalgamation of CONII (Colleges Ontario Network for Industry Innovation) and Ontario Centers of Excellence we anticipate expanded opportunities for funded applied research projects that will create meaningful experiences for students and faculty alike

6) eLearning

The Government of Ontario in the recently released discussion paper Strengthening Ontarios Centres of Creativity Innovation and Knowledge included a section regarding online learning as a potential method to increase access for all learners particularly those who are prevented from attending in-class education as a result of barriers that may be financial geographic physical family-related or work-related In spring 2010 the Ministry conducted a postsecondary survey on eLearning activity and plans that proved to be very useful in helping the Ministry to develop a stronger understanding of the scale and type of eLearning activity taking place across Ontario In its 2011-2012 MYAA Report Back Humber College provided information on eLearning that expanded on the information that was submitted in the Postsecondary eLearning Survey and contributed to establishing a general baseline of student participation and demand in online courses and programs As part of the ongoing development of performance indicators that reflect current government priorities for eLearning and that will contribute to the Ministrys future priorities on technology-enabled learning Humber College is asked to provide information on eLearning courses programs and registrations in 2012-2013 Fully Online Learning and Synchronous Conferencing DEFINITIONS Courses A Fully Online Learning (asynchronous) course is a form of distance learning delivered to individuals with access to the Internet either at home work or through an access centre Although courses may have a set start date and set due dates for assignments students can otherwise access and participate in courses at times and places of their own choosing The online component is typically over 80 of the total delivery For example a fully online course may include occasional face-to-face meetings a proctored exam etc with the remainder of the content delivered online

A Synchronous Conferencing course is delivered through audio and video conferencing to provide synchronous communications (ie at the same time) between an instructor at one site and students at other sites Conferencing can make use of the public telephone system (ISDN) dedicated wideband networks or the Internet A course is considered to be offered via synchronous conferencing if 80 or more of the content is delivered this way For example a synchronous conferencing course may have occasional face-to-face meetings a proctored exam etc with the remainder of the content delivered through audio and video conferencing Programs A Fully Online Learning (asynchronous) program describes a program which is considered to be fully online if 80 or more of its courses are fully online courses As an example suppose a program consisted of 10 courses where 8 courses are delivered fully online and 2 courses are delivered via traditional face-to-face In this case 80 of courses in the program are fully online and the program is defined as a fully online program

A Synchronous Conferencing program describes a program which is considered to be offered via synchronous conferencing if 80 or more of its courses are delivered via synchronous conferencing and 2 courses are delivered via traditional face-to-face In this case 80 of courses in the program are delivered via synchronous conferencing and the program is defined as a synchronous conferencing program

6) eLearning

The Government of Ontario in the recently released discussion paper Strengthening Ontarios Centres of Creativity Innovation and Knowledge included a section regarding online learning as a potential method to increase access for all learners particularly those who are prevented from attending in-class education as a result of barriers that may be financial geographic physical family-related or work-related In spring 2010 the Ministry conducted a postsecondary survey on eLearning activity and plans that proved to be very useful in helping the Ministry to develop a stronger understanding of the scale and type of eLearning activity taking place across Ontario In its 2011-2012 MYAA Report Back Humber College provided information on eLearning that expanded on the information that was submitted in the Postsecondary eLearning Survey and contributed to establishing a general baseline of student participation and demand in online courses and programs As part of the ongoing development of performance indicators that reflect current government priorities for eLearning and that will contribute to the Ministrys future priorities on technology-enabled learning Humber College is asked to provide information on eLearning courses programs and registrations in 2012-2013 Fully Online Learning and Synchronous Conferencing DEFINITIONS Courses A Fully Online Learning (asynchronous) course is a form of distance learning delivered to individuals with access to the Internet either at home work or through an access centre Although courses may have a set start date and set due dates for assignments students can otherwise access and participate in courses at times and places of their own choosing The online component is typically over 80 of the total delivery For example a fully online course may include occasional face-to-face meetings a proctored exam etc with the remainder of the content delivered online

A Synchronous Conferencing course is delivered through audio and video conferencing to provide synchronous communications (ie at the same time) between an instructor at one site and students at other sites Conferencing can make use of the public telephone system (ISDN) dedicated wideband networks or the Internet A course is considered to be offered via synchronous conferencing if 80 or more of the content is delivered this way For example a synchronous conferencing course may have occasional face-to-face meetings a proctored exam etc with the remainder of the content delivered through audio and video conferencing Programs A Fully Online Learning (asynchronous) program describes a program which is considered to be fully online if 80 or more of its courses are fully online courses As an example suppose a program consisted of 10 courses where 8 courses are delivered fully online and 2 courses are delivered via traditional face-to-face In this case 80 of courses in the program are fully online and the program is defined as a fully online program

Currently Humber College only runs a handful of hybrid courses per the Ministry definition This type of delivery method is not widely used at the College

Humber College was quite active and aggressive in building new online content during the 2012-2013 academic year building close to 100 new online courses Sixty of these courses were language courses The online language courses are unique in that they leverage the Tell Me More language software platform that allows students to experience ldquolanguage immersionrdquo Using our current LMS the Tell Me More link and SCORM packages were embedded into each language course and the course was then supplemented with additional methods of evaluation discussion boards and a live facultystudent chat session using virtual classroom software Both professional and everyday language courses were built over a six month period and are now being offered through Humber College and OntarioLearn

Humber College continues to grow the online course catalogue and we look forward to making a similar investment in upgrading our online courses in the 2013-2014 academic year

2 Describe how Humber is doing its part to build up the apprenticeship system in Ontario to increase the skilled labour market supply through in-school training expanding the range of apprenticeship programming developing learning pathways for apprentices who wish to ladder into diploma programs and vice versa Provide enrolment data for the apprenticeship programs Humber offers

Humberrsquos Centre for Trades and Technology was developed in 2009 Humber invested over $16 million in the centre including a $7 million contribution from the Ontario Ministry of Training Colleges and Universities The 95000 square foot facility offers students in skilled trade diploma certificate and apprenticeship programs an opportunity to train in state-of-the-art industry-simulated settings under industry mandated standards Through the development of this centre Humber is helping to address the critical shortage of skilled trade workers

Humber provides the required components towards an apprenticeship including technical theory practical job experience and in-school training Students learn valuable skills by using the latest industry software programs and working in fully equipped up-to-date labs and shops At Humber skilled instructors highlight current trends within the industry and strive to duplicate situations that apprentices and skilled tradespeople will see in their everyday working life

Humber offered 12 apprenticeship programs in 2012-13

Apprenticeship Program 2012 Enrolment Arborist Apprenticeship 103 Baker 17 Cook (Cuisine) Apprenticeship 219 Chef Program for Journeyman Cooks - Culinary Co-op Diploma Apprenticeship - Construction Boilermaker Apprenticeship 189 Developmental Service Worker Apprenticeship 458 Electrician Construction and Maintenance Apprenticeship 1080 Industrial Electrician Apprenticeship 7 Institutional Cook 13 Horticultural Technician Apprenticeship 76 Network Cabling Specialist Apprenticeship 15 Plumber Apprenticeship 421 Solar Photovoltaic 20

4 Describe how Humber is ensuring that diploma graduates have access to degree programs and how many graduates access degree education To meet the needs of all postsecondary learners Humber offers several pathways from diploma programs into degree programs The first pathway is for students to transfer from a Humber diploma program to a Humber degree program As an Institute of Technology and Advanced Learning Humber is able to offer up to 15 per cent of its programs at the baccalaureate degree level In 2012-2013 Humber offered 17 degrees (plus nursing) Humber currently represents just over 31 per cent of all college degree enrolment in Ontario In September 2013 this number will increase to 21 degree programs (plus nursing) and over the next five to seven years Humber plans to offer approximately 25 to 30 baccalaureate degrees that resonate with potential students and respond to labour market demands All new degrees have pathways for diploma students from Humber or any other Ontario college In Fall 2012 64 students transferred from Humber Diploma to Humber Degree programs

The second pathway ensuring degree access is from a Humber diploma into a Guelph-Humber degree program The University of Guelph-Humber is located on Humberrsquos North Campus offering over 3850 students seven undergraduate degree programs Students are able to transfer from a number of Humber diploma programs including

bull Business Administration rarr Hon Bachelor of Business Administration bull Early Childhood Education rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Early Childhood bull Social Service Worker rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Family amp Community

Social Services bull Police Foundations rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Justice Studies bull Fitness amp Health Promotion rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Kinesiology bull Media Communications rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Arts in Media Studies bull General Arts amp Science University Transfer certificate rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied

Science in Psychology

Since the launch of Guelph-Humber over 590 students have transferred from Humber Diploma to Guelph-Humber Degree programs

Finally students can build from one credential to another through transfer credit opportunities with more than 50 Canadian and international universities For students wishing to transfer from a diploma to a degree without the requirements several of Humberrsquos programs offer bridging courses over the summer months to ensure a seamless transition

5 Describe how Humberrsquos applied research activity supports its mission as a differentiated institution

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 79

At Humber research activity is directly tied to teaching and learning Applied research helps faculty members to create learning experiences that engage students in activities that take classroom learning into the workplace Applied research projects also help students to be workplace ready by reinforcing employability skills In addition applied research opportunities motivate faculty members to remain current in their areas of expertise and to continue to contribute to new knowledge in their fields

Applied research and innovation activities are evident in four main areas in the classroom including capstone projects through funded projects with industry partners through internally funded projects and at the Innovation Humber Incubator Both industry funded partnerships and internally funded projects offer research assistantships for students This year 58 students were engaged in a total of 12 funded projects and another 21 students were supported in entrepreneurial venture start-ups

Externally Funded Projects Externally funded projects with industry partners included three new CONII projects where students and faculty work with industry partners to respond to industry needs

i The CSMB-TV project engaged students and faculty in the School of Media Studies

and Information Technology (SMSIT) to create a platform for the launch of a web-based television network to serve small and medium-sized businesses and entrepreneurs This initial project has established a partnership that we confidently anticipate will lead to several new projects with SMSIT and other schools at Humber

ii A second project with industry partner Adam Bienenstock Natural Playgrounds

focused on gathering baseline data for future research Students from the Early Childhood Education (ECE) diploma and degree programs learned new research skills in the process of gathering and coding information about childrenrsquos play in the existing playground This summer a new outdoor learning environment will replace the playground to create a living laboratory for students faculty and other researchers interested in learning more about childrenrsquos engagement with the natural environment

iii A third project in collaboration with industry partner Cell 8 Games provided students

from the Game Programmer program with the opportunity to develop a new video game from the ideal phase to a working prototype which Cell 8 Games will commercialize and launch

Humber received its first National Science and Engineering Research Council CollegeUniversity Idea to Innovation (NSERC CU I2I) grant this year A faculty member in the School of Applied Technology will work with partners at Carleton University and industry partner MS Filters on a project to develop a new water treatment technology process for remote and northern communities Workstudy students from the Civil Engineering Technology program will participate in this project

Staff Initiated Research Fund (SIRF)

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 80

Humber provided funding for seven new staff initiated research projects through the SIRF program These projects enable faculty to pursue research interests that will engage student research assistants outside the classroom and which may lead to larger projects with industry partners For example the Natural Playgrounds project began as a SIRF project investigating preschool childrenrsquos responses to the natural world This year faculty and students engaged in projects ranging from creating a videogame to increase student engagement to investigating how consumers understand food nutrition labels Innovation Humber Incubator (IHI) Since its launch in 2012 the Innovation Humber Incubator funded by a grant from Ontario Centers of Excellence has launched a total of 31 ventures ndash 10 in 2011-12 and 21 in 2012-13 Students invited into the incubator in 2012-13 include those who applied for support from the New Venture Seed Fund as well as those who competed in the Friendly Fire Pitch Competition At present participating ventures range from an urban farming solution to a new fitness venture Students who participate in the IHI program are provided with mentors business resources and other support In exchange they agree that Humber may track their progress through their first year as a start-up Research in Teaching and Learning Humber has also been active in the area of research in teaching and learning and has received funding for participation in two projects through the Higher Education Quality Council of Ontario (HEQCO) The first piloted a tool for assessing student learning in generic skills using the Collegiate Learning Assessment (CLA) The second is a pilot project to develop a unique tool to measure student progress in genericemployability skills These projects complement our engagement in applied research projects that enhance studentsrsquo employability skills Humber Research continues to actively pursue opportunities to engage in applied research with industry partners who can provide our students with engagement with current industry problems and challenges With the amalgamation of CONII (Colleges Ontario Network for Industry Innovation) and Ontario Centers of Excellence we anticipate expanded opportunities for funded applied research projects that will create meaningful experiences for students and faculty alike

6) eLearning

The Government of Ontario in the recently released discussion paper Strengthening Ontarios Centres of Creativity Innovation and Knowledge included a section regarding online learning as a potential method to increase access for all learners particularly those who are prevented from attending in-class education as a result of barriers that may be financial geographic physical family-related or work-related In spring 2010 the Ministry conducted a postsecondary survey on eLearning activity and plans that proved to be very useful in helping the Ministry to develop a stronger understanding of the scale and type of eLearning activity taking place across Ontario In its 2011-2012 MYAA Report Back Humber College provided information on eLearning that expanded on the information that was submitted in the Postsecondary eLearning Survey and contributed to establishing a general baseline of student participation and demand in online courses and programs As part of the ongoing development of performance indicators that reflect current government priorities for eLearning and that will contribute to the Ministrys future priorities on technology-enabled learning Humber College is asked to provide information on eLearning courses programs and registrations in 2012-2013 Fully Online Learning and Synchronous Conferencing DEFINITIONS Courses A Fully Online Learning (asynchronous) course is a form of distance learning delivered to individuals with access to the Internet either at home work or through an access centre Although courses may have a set start date and set due dates for assignments students can otherwise access and participate in courses at times and places of their own choosing The online component is typically over 80 of the total delivery For example a fully online course may include occasional face-to-face meetings a proctored exam etc with the remainder of the content delivered online

A Synchronous Conferencing course is delivered through audio and video conferencing to provide synchronous communications (ie at the same time) between an instructor at one site and students at other sites Conferencing can make use of the public telephone system (ISDN) dedicated wideband networks or the Internet A course is considered to be offered via synchronous conferencing if 80 or more of the content is delivered this way For example a synchronous conferencing course may have occasional face-to-face meetings a proctored exam etc with the remainder of the content delivered through audio and video conferencing Programs A Fully Online Learning (asynchronous) program describes a program which is considered to be fully online if 80 or more of its courses are fully online courses As an example suppose a program consisted of 10 courses where 8 courses are delivered fully online and 2 courses are delivered via traditional face-to-face In this case 80 of courses in the program are fully online and the program is defined as a fully online program

2 Describe how Humber is doing its part to build up the apprenticeship system in Ontario to increase the skilled labour market supply through in-school training expanding the range of apprenticeship programming developing learning pathways for apprentices who wish to ladder into diploma programs and vice versa Provide enrolment data for the apprenticeship programs Humber offers

Humberrsquos Centre for Trades and Technology was developed in 2009 Humber invested over $16 million in the centre including a $7 million contribution from the Ontario Ministry of Training Colleges and Universities The 95000 square foot facility offers students in skilled trade diploma certificate and apprenticeship programs an opportunity to train in state-of-the-art industry-simulated settings under industry mandated standards Through the development of this centre Humber is helping to address the critical shortage of skilled trade workers

Humber provides the required components towards an apprenticeship including technical theory practical job experience and in-school training Students learn valuable skills by using the latest industry software programs and working in fully equipped up-to-date labs and shops At Humber skilled instructors highlight current trends within the industry and strive to duplicate situations that apprentices and skilled tradespeople will see in their everyday working life

Since the launch of Guelph-Humber over 590 students have transferred from Humber Diploma to Guelph-Humber Degree programs

Finally students can build from one credential to another through transfer credit opportunities with more than 50 Canadian and international universities For students wishing to transfer from a diploma to a degree without the requirements several of Humberrsquos programs offer bridging courses over the summer months to ensure a seamless transition

5 Describe how Humberrsquos applied research activity supports its mission as a differentiated institution

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 79

At Humber research activity is directly tied to teaching and learning Applied research helps faculty members to create learning experiences that engage students in activities that take classroom learning into the workplace Applied research projects also help students to be workplace ready by reinforcing employability skills In addition applied research opportunities motivate faculty members to remain current in their areas of expertise and to continue to contribute to new knowledge in their fields

Applied research and innovation activities are evident in four main areas in the classroom including capstone projects through funded projects with industry partners through internally funded projects and at the Innovation Humber Incubator Both industry funded partnerships and internally funded projects offer research assistantships for students This year 58 students were engaged in a total of 12 funded projects and another 21 students were supported in entrepreneurial venture start-ups

Externally Funded Projects Externally funded projects with industry partners included three new CONII projects where students and faculty work with industry partners to respond to industry needs

i The CSMB-TV project engaged students and faculty in the School of Media Studies

and Information Technology (SMSIT) to create a platform for the launch of a web-based television network to serve small and medium-sized businesses and entrepreneurs This initial project has established a partnership that we confidently anticipate will lead to several new projects with SMSIT and other schools at Humber

ii A second project with industry partner Adam Bienenstock Natural Playgrounds

focused on gathering baseline data for future research Students from the Early Childhood Education (ECE) diploma and degree programs learned new research skills in the process of gathering and coding information about childrenrsquos play in the existing playground This summer a new outdoor learning environment will replace the playground to create a living laboratory for students faculty and other researchers interested in learning more about childrenrsquos engagement with the natural environment

iii A third project in collaboration with industry partner Cell 8 Games provided students

from the Game Programmer program with the opportunity to develop a new video game from the ideal phase to a working prototype which Cell 8 Games will commercialize and launch

Humber received its first National Science and Engineering Research Council CollegeUniversity Idea to Innovation (NSERC CU I2I) grant this year A faculty member in the School of Applied Technology will work with partners at Carleton University and industry partner MS Filters on a project to develop a new water treatment technology process for remote and northern communities Workstudy students from the Civil Engineering Technology program will participate in this project

Staff Initiated Research Fund (SIRF)

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 80

Humber provided funding for seven new staff initiated research projects through the SIRF program These projects enable faculty to pursue research interests that will engage student research assistants outside the classroom and which may lead to larger projects with industry partners For example the Natural Playgrounds project began as a SIRF project investigating preschool childrenrsquos responses to the natural world This year faculty and students engaged in projects ranging from creating a videogame to increase student engagement to investigating how consumers understand food nutrition labels Innovation Humber Incubator (IHI) Since its launch in 2012 the Innovation Humber Incubator funded by a grant from Ontario Centers of Excellence has launched a total of 31 ventures ndash 10 in 2011-12 and 21 in 2012-13 Students invited into the incubator in 2012-13 include those who applied for support from the New Venture Seed Fund as well as those who competed in the Friendly Fire Pitch Competition At present participating ventures range from an urban farming solution to a new fitness venture Students who participate in the IHI program are provided with mentors business resources and other support In exchange they agree that Humber may track their progress through their first year as a start-up Research in Teaching and Learning Humber has also been active in the area of research in teaching and learning and has received funding for participation in two projects through the Higher Education Quality Council of Ontario (HEQCO) The first piloted a tool for assessing student learning in generic skills using the Collegiate Learning Assessment (CLA) The second is a pilot project to develop a unique tool to measure student progress in genericemployability skills These projects complement our engagement in applied research projects that enhance studentsrsquo employability skills Humber Research continues to actively pursue opportunities to engage in applied research with industry partners who can provide our students with engagement with current industry problems and challenges With the amalgamation of CONII (Colleges Ontario Network for Industry Innovation) and Ontario Centers of Excellence we anticipate expanded opportunities for funded applied research projects that will create meaningful experiences for students and faculty alike

5 Describe how Humberrsquos applied research activity supports its mission as a differentiated institution

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 79

At Humber research activity is directly tied to teaching and learning Applied research helps faculty members to create learning experiences that engage students in activities that take classroom learning into the workplace Applied research projects also help students to be workplace ready by reinforcing employability skills In addition applied research opportunities motivate faculty members to remain current in their areas of expertise and to continue to contribute to new knowledge in their fields

Applied research and innovation activities are evident in four main areas in the classroom including capstone projects through funded projects with industry partners through internally funded projects and at the Innovation Humber Incubator Both industry funded partnerships and internally funded projects offer research assistantships for students This year 58 students were engaged in a total of 12 funded projects and another 21 students were supported in entrepreneurial venture start-ups

Externally Funded Projects Externally funded projects with industry partners included three new CONII projects where students and faculty work with industry partners to respond to industry needs

i The CSMB-TV project engaged students and faculty in the School of Media Studies

and Information Technology (SMSIT) to create a platform for the launch of a web-based television network to serve small and medium-sized businesses and entrepreneurs This initial project has established a partnership that we confidently anticipate will lead to several new projects with SMSIT and other schools at Humber

ii A second project with industry partner Adam Bienenstock Natural Playgrounds

focused on gathering baseline data for future research Students from the Early Childhood Education (ECE) diploma and degree programs learned new research skills in the process of gathering and coding information about childrenrsquos play in the existing playground This summer a new outdoor learning environment will replace the playground to create a living laboratory for students faculty and other researchers interested in learning more about childrenrsquos engagement with the natural environment

iii A third project in collaboration with industry partner Cell 8 Games provided students

from the Game Programmer program with the opportunity to develop a new video game from the ideal phase to a working prototype which Cell 8 Games will commercialize and launch

Humber received its first National Science and Engineering Research Council CollegeUniversity Idea to Innovation (NSERC CU I2I) grant this year A faculty member in the School of Applied Technology will work with partners at Carleton University and industry partner MS Filters on a project to develop a new water treatment technology process for remote and northern communities Workstudy students from the Civil Engineering Technology program will participate in this project

2 Describe how Humber is doing its part to build up the apprenticeship system in Ontario to increase the skilled labour market supply through in-school training expanding the range of apprenticeship programming developing learning pathways for apprentices who wish to ladder into diploma programs and vice versa Provide enrolment data for the apprenticeship programs Humber offers

Humberrsquos Centre for Trades and Technology was developed in 2009 Humber invested over $16 million in the centre including a $7 million contribution from the Ontario Ministry of Training Colleges and Universities The 95000 square foot facility offers students in skilled trade diploma certificate and apprenticeship programs an opportunity to train in state-of-the-art industry-simulated settings under industry mandated standards Through the development of this centre Humber is helping to address the critical shortage of skilled trade workers

Humber provides the required components towards an apprenticeship including technical theory practical job experience and in-school training Students learn valuable skills by using the latest industry software programs and working in fully equipped up-to-date labs and shops At Humber skilled instructors highlight current trends within the industry and strive to duplicate situations that apprentices and skilled tradespeople will see in their everyday working life

Humber offered 12 apprenticeship programs in 2012-13

Apprenticeship Program 2012 Enrolment Arborist Apprenticeship 103 Baker 17 Cook (Cuisine) Apprenticeship 219 Chef Program for Journeyman Cooks - Culinary Co-op Diploma Apprenticeship - Construction Boilermaker Apprenticeship 189 Developmental Service Worker Apprenticeship 458 Electrician Construction and Maintenance Apprenticeship 1080 Industrial Electrician Apprenticeship 7 Institutional Cook 13 Horticultural Technician Apprenticeship 76 Network Cabling Specialist Apprenticeship 15 Plumber Apprenticeship 421 Solar Photovoltaic 20

4 Describe how Humber is ensuring that diploma graduates have access to degree programs and how many graduates access degree education To meet the needs of all postsecondary learners Humber offers several pathways from diploma programs into degree programs The first pathway is for students to transfer from a Humber diploma program to a Humber degree program As an Institute of Technology and Advanced Learning Humber is able to offer up to 15 per cent of its programs at the baccalaureate degree level In 2012-2013 Humber offered 17 degrees (plus nursing) Humber currently represents just over 31 per cent of all college degree enrolment in Ontario In September 2013 this number will increase to 21 degree programs (plus nursing) and over the next five to seven years Humber plans to offer approximately 25 to 30 baccalaureate degrees that resonate with potential students and respond to labour market demands All new degrees have pathways for diploma students from Humber or any other Ontario college In Fall 2012 64 students transferred from Humber Diploma to Humber Degree programs

The second pathway ensuring degree access is from a Humber diploma into a Guelph-Humber degree program The University of Guelph-Humber is located on Humberrsquos North Campus offering over 3850 students seven undergraduate degree programs Students are able to transfer from a number of Humber diploma programs including

bull Business Administration rarr Hon Bachelor of Business Administration bull Early Childhood Education rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Early Childhood bull Social Service Worker rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Family amp Community

Social Services bull Police Foundations rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Justice Studies bull Fitness amp Health Promotion rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Kinesiology bull Media Communications rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Arts in Media Studies bull General Arts amp Science University Transfer certificate rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied

Science in Psychology

Since the launch of Guelph-Humber over 590 students have transferred from Humber Diploma to Guelph-Humber Degree programs

Finally students can build from one credential to another through transfer credit opportunities with more than 50 Canadian and international universities For students wishing to transfer from a diploma to a degree without the requirements several of Humberrsquos programs offer bridging courses over the summer months to ensure a seamless transition

5 Describe how Humberrsquos applied research activity supports its mission as a differentiated institution

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 79

At Humber research activity is directly tied to teaching and learning Applied research helps faculty members to create learning experiences that engage students in activities that take classroom learning into the workplace Applied research projects also help students to be workplace ready by reinforcing employability skills In addition applied research opportunities motivate faculty members to remain current in their areas of expertise and to continue to contribute to new knowledge in their fields

Applied research and innovation activities are evident in four main areas in the classroom including capstone projects through funded projects with industry partners through internally funded projects and at the Innovation Humber Incubator Both industry funded partnerships and internally funded projects offer research assistantships for students This year 58 students were engaged in a total of 12 funded projects and another 21 students were supported in entrepreneurial venture start-ups

Externally Funded Projects Externally funded projects with industry partners included three new CONII projects where students and faculty work with industry partners to respond to industry needs

i The CSMB-TV project engaged students and faculty in the School of Media Studies

and Information Technology (SMSIT) to create a platform for the launch of a web-based television network to serve small and medium-sized businesses and entrepreneurs This initial project has established a partnership that we confidently anticipate will lead to several new projects with SMSIT and other schools at Humber

ii A second project with industry partner Adam Bienenstock Natural Playgrounds

focused on gathering baseline data for future research Students from the Early Childhood Education (ECE) diploma and degree programs learned new research skills in the process of gathering and coding information about childrenrsquos play in the existing playground This summer a new outdoor learning environment will replace the playground to create a living laboratory for students faculty and other researchers interested in learning more about childrenrsquos engagement with the natural environment

iii A third project in collaboration with industry partner Cell 8 Games provided students

from the Game Programmer program with the opportunity to develop a new video game from the ideal phase to a working prototype which Cell 8 Games will commercialize and launch

Humber received its first National Science and Engineering Research Council CollegeUniversity Idea to Innovation (NSERC CU I2I) grant this year A faculty member in the School of Applied Technology will work with partners at Carleton University and industry partner MS Filters on a project to develop a new water treatment technology process for remote and northern communities Workstudy students from the Civil Engineering Technology program will participate in this project

Staff Initiated Research Fund (SIRF)

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 80

Humber provided funding for seven new staff initiated research projects through the SIRF program These projects enable faculty to pursue research interests that will engage student research assistants outside the classroom and which may lead to larger projects with industry partners For example the Natural Playgrounds project began as a SIRF project investigating preschool childrenrsquos responses to the natural world This year faculty and students engaged in projects ranging from creating a videogame to increase student engagement to investigating how consumers understand food nutrition labels Innovation Humber Incubator (IHI) Since its launch in 2012 the Innovation Humber Incubator funded by a grant from Ontario Centers of Excellence has launched a total of 31 ventures ndash 10 in 2011-12 and 21 in 2012-13 Students invited into the incubator in 2012-13 include those who applied for support from the New Venture Seed Fund as well as those who competed in the Friendly Fire Pitch Competition At present participating ventures range from an urban farming solution to a new fitness venture Students who participate in the IHI program are provided with mentors business resources and other support In exchange they agree that Humber may track their progress through their first year as a start-up Research in Teaching and Learning Humber has also been active in the area of research in teaching and learning and has received funding for participation in two projects through the Higher Education Quality Council of Ontario (HEQCO) The first piloted a tool for assessing student learning in generic skills using the Collegiate Learning Assessment (CLA) The second is a pilot project to develop a unique tool to measure student progress in genericemployability skills These projects complement our engagement in applied research projects that enhance studentsrsquo employability skills Humber Research continues to actively pursue opportunities to engage in applied research with industry partners who can provide our students with engagement with current industry problems and challenges With the amalgamation of CONII (Colleges Ontario Network for Industry Innovation) and Ontario Centers of Excellence we anticipate expanded opportunities for funded applied research projects that will create meaningful experiences for students and faculty alike

2 Describe how Humber is doing its part to build up the apprenticeship system in Ontario to increase the skilled labour market supply through in-school training expanding the range of apprenticeship programming developing learning pathways for apprentices who wish to ladder into diploma programs and vice versa Provide enrolment data for the apprenticeship programs Humber offers

Humberrsquos Centre for Trades and Technology was developed in 2009 Humber invested over $16 million in the centre including a $7 million contribution from the Ontario Ministry of Training Colleges and Universities The 95000 square foot facility offers students in skilled trade diploma certificate and apprenticeship programs an opportunity to train in state-of-the-art industry-simulated settings under industry mandated standards Through the development of this centre Humber is helping to address the critical shortage of skilled trade workers

Humber provides the required components towards an apprenticeship including technical theory practical job experience and in-school training Students learn valuable skills by using the latest industry software programs and working in fully equipped up-to-date labs and shops At Humber skilled instructors highlight current trends within the industry and strive to duplicate situations that apprentices and skilled tradespeople will see in their everyday working life

Humber offered 12 apprenticeship programs in 2012-13

4 Describe how Humber is ensuring that diploma graduates have access to degree programs and how many graduates access degree education To meet the needs of all postsecondary learners Humber offers several pathways from diploma programs into degree programs The first pathway is for students to transfer from a Humber diploma program to a Humber degree program As an Institute of Technology and Advanced Learning Humber is able to offer up to 15 per cent of its programs at the baccalaureate degree level In 2012-2013 Humber offered 17 degrees (plus nursing) Humber currently represents just over 31 per cent of all college degree enrolment in Ontario In September 2013 this number will increase to 21 degree programs (plus nursing) and over the next five to seven years Humber plans to offer approximately 25 to 30 baccalaureate degrees that resonate with potential students and respond to labour market demands All new degrees have pathways for diploma students from Humber or any other Ontario college In Fall 2012 64 students transferred from Humber Diploma to Humber Degree programs

The second pathway ensuring degree access is from a Humber diploma into a Guelph-Humber degree program The University of Guelph-Humber is located on Humberrsquos North Campus offering over 3850 students seven undergraduate degree programs Students are able to transfer from a number of Humber diploma programs including

bull Business Administration rarr Hon Bachelor of Business Administration bull Early Childhood Education rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Early Childhood bull Social Service Worker rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Family amp Community

Since the launch of Guelph-Humber over 590 students have transferred from Humber Diploma to Guelph-Humber Degree programs

Finally students can build from one credential to another through transfer credit opportunities with more than 50 Canadian and international universities For students wishing to transfer from a diploma to a degree without the requirements several of Humberrsquos programs offer bridging courses over the summer months to ensure a seamless transition

5 Describe how Humberrsquos applied research activity supports its mission as a differentiated institution

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 79

At Humber research activity is directly tied to teaching and learning Applied research helps faculty members to create learning experiences that engage students in activities that take classroom learning into the workplace Applied research projects also help students to be workplace ready by reinforcing employability skills In addition applied research opportunities motivate faculty members to remain current in their areas of expertise and to continue to contribute to new knowledge in their fields

Applied research and innovation activities are evident in four main areas in the classroom including capstone projects through funded projects with industry partners through internally funded projects and at the Innovation Humber Incubator Both industry funded partnerships and internally funded projects offer research assistantships for students This year 58 students were engaged in a total of 12 funded projects and another 21 students were supported in entrepreneurial venture start-ups

Externally Funded Projects Externally funded projects with industry partners included three new CONII projects where students and faculty work with industry partners to respond to industry needs

i The CSMB-TV project engaged students and faculty in the School of Media Studies

and Information Technology (SMSIT) to create a platform for the launch of a web-based television network to serve small and medium-sized businesses and entrepreneurs This initial project has established a partnership that we confidently anticipate will lead to several new projects with SMSIT and other schools at Humber

ii A second project with industry partner Adam Bienenstock Natural Playgrounds

focused on gathering baseline data for future research Students from the Early Childhood Education (ECE) diploma and degree programs learned new research skills in the process of gathering and coding information about childrenrsquos play in the existing playground This summer a new outdoor learning environment will replace the playground to create a living laboratory for students faculty and other researchers interested in learning more about childrenrsquos engagement with the natural environment

iii A third project in collaboration with industry partner Cell 8 Games provided students

from the Game Programmer program with the opportunity to develop a new video game from the ideal phase to a working prototype which Cell 8 Games will commercialize and launch

Humber received its first National Science and Engineering Research Council CollegeUniversity Idea to Innovation (NSERC CU I2I) grant this year A faculty member in the School of Applied Technology will work with partners at Carleton University and industry partner MS Filters on a project to develop a new water treatment technology process for remote and northern communities Workstudy students from the Civil Engineering Technology program will participate in this project

Staff Initiated Research Fund (SIRF)

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 80

Humber provided funding for seven new staff initiated research projects through the SIRF program These projects enable faculty to pursue research interests that will engage student research assistants outside the classroom and which may lead to larger projects with industry partners For example the Natural Playgrounds project began as a SIRF project investigating preschool childrenrsquos responses to the natural world This year faculty and students engaged in projects ranging from creating a videogame to increase student engagement to investigating how consumers understand food nutrition labels Innovation Humber Incubator (IHI) Since its launch in 2012 the Innovation Humber Incubator funded by a grant from Ontario Centers of Excellence has launched a total of 31 ventures ndash 10 in 2011-12 and 21 in 2012-13 Students invited into the incubator in 2012-13 include those who applied for support from the New Venture Seed Fund as well as those who competed in the Friendly Fire Pitch Competition At present participating ventures range from an urban farming solution to a new fitness venture Students who participate in the IHI program are provided with mentors business resources and other support In exchange they agree that Humber may track their progress through their first year as a start-up Research in Teaching and Learning Humber has also been active in the area of research in teaching and learning and has received funding for participation in two projects through the Higher Education Quality Council of Ontario (HEQCO) The first piloted a tool for assessing student learning in generic skills using the Collegiate Learning Assessment (CLA) The second is a pilot project to develop a unique tool to measure student progress in genericemployability skills These projects complement our engagement in applied research projects that enhance studentsrsquo employability skills Humber Research continues to actively pursue opportunities to engage in applied research with industry partners who can provide our students with engagement with current industry problems and challenges With the amalgamation of CONII (Colleges Ontario Network for Industry Innovation) and Ontario Centers of Excellence we anticipate expanded opportunities for funded applied research projects that will create meaningful experiences for students and faculty alike

2 Describe how Humber is doing its part to build up the apprenticeship system in Ontario to increase the skilled labour market supply through in-school training expanding the range of apprenticeship programming developing learning pathways for apprentices who wish to ladder into diploma programs and vice versa Provide enrolment data for the apprenticeship programs Humber offers

Humberrsquos Centre for Trades and Technology was developed in 2009 Humber invested over $16 million in the centre including a $7 million contribution from the Ontario Ministry of Training Colleges and Universities The 95000 square foot facility offers students in skilled trade diploma certificate and apprenticeship programs an opportunity to train in state-of-the-art industry-simulated settings under industry mandated standards Through the development of this centre Humber is helping to address the critical shortage of skilled trade workers

Humber provides the required components towards an apprenticeship including technical theory practical job experience and in-school training Students learn valuable skills by using the latest industry software programs and working in fully equipped up-to-date labs and shops At Humber skilled instructors highlight current trends within the industry and strive to duplicate situations that apprentices and skilled tradespeople will see in their everyday working life

Humber offered 12 apprenticeship programs in 2012-13

Finally students can build from one credential to another through transfer credit opportunities with more than 50 Canadian and international universities For students wishing to transfer from a diploma to a degree without the requirements several of Humberrsquos programs offer bridging courses over the summer months to ensure a seamless transition

5 Describe how Humberrsquos applied research activity supports its mission as a differentiated institution

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 79

At Humber research activity is directly tied to teaching and learning Applied research helps faculty members to create learning experiences that engage students in activities that take classroom learning into the workplace Applied research projects also help students to be workplace ready by reinforcing employability skills In addition applied research opportunities motivate faculty members to remain current in their areas of expertise and to continue to contribute to new knowledge in their fields

Applied research and innovation activities are evident in four main areas in the classroom including capstone projects through funded projects with industry partners through internally funded projects and at the Innovation Humber Incubator Both industry funded partnerships and internally funded projects offer research assistantships for students This year 58 students were engaged in a total of 12 funded projects and another 21 students were supported in entrepreneurial venture start-ups

Externally Funded Projects Externally funded projects with industry partners included three new CONII projects where students and faculty work with industry partners to respond to industry needs

i The CSMB-TV project engaged students and faculty in the School of Media Studies

and Information Technology (SMSIT) to create a platform for the launch of a web-based television network to serve small and medium-sized businesses and entrepreneurs This initial project has established a partnership that we confidently anticipate will lead to several new projects with SMSIT and other schools at Humber

ii A second project with industry partner Adam Bienenstock Natural Playgrounds

focused on gathering baseline data for future research Students from the Early Childhood Education (ECE) diploma and degree programs learned new research skills in the process of gathering and coding information about childrenrsquos play in the existing playground This summer a new outdoor learning environment will replace the playground to create a living laboratory for students faculty and other researchers interested in learning more about childrenrsquos engagement with the natural environment

iii A third project in collaboration with industry partner Cell 8 Games provided students

from the Game Programmer program with the opportunity to develop a new video game from the ideal phase to a working prototype which Cell 8 Games will commercialize and launch

Humber received its first National Science and Engineering Research Council CollegeUniversity Idea to Innovation (NSERC CU I2I) grant this year A faculty member in the School of Applied Technology will work with partners at Carleton University and industry partner MS Filters on a project to develop a new water treatment technology process for remote and northern communities Workstudy students from the Civil Engineering Technology program will participate in this project

Staff Initiated Research Fund (SIRF)

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 80

Humber provided funding for seven new staff initiated research projects through the SIRF program These projects enable faculty to pursue research interests that will engage student research assistants outside the classroom and which may lead to larger projects with industry partners For example the Natural Playgrounds project began as a SIRF project investigating preschool childrenrsquos responses to the natural world This year faculty and students engaged in projects ranging from creating a videogame to increase student engagement to investigating how consumers understand food nutrition labels Innovation Humber Incubator (IHI) Since its launch in 2012 the Innovation Humber Incubator funded by a grant from Ontario Centers of Excellence has launched a total of 31 ventures ndash 10 in 2011-12 and 21 in 2012-13 Students invited into the incubator in 2012-13 include those who applied for support from the New Venture Seed Fund as well as those who competed in the Friendly Fire Pitch Competition At present participating ventures range from an urban farming solution to a new fitness venture Students who participate in the IHI program are provided with mentors business resources and other support In exchange they agree that Humber may track their progress through their first year as a start-up Research in Teaching and Learning Humber has also been active in the area of research in teaching and learning and has received funding for participation in two projects through the Higher Education Quality Council of Ontario (HEQCO) The first piloted a tool for assessing student learning in generic skills using the Collegiate Learning Assessment (CLA) The second is a pilot project to develop a unique tool to measure student progress in genericemployability skills These projects complement our engagement in applied research projects that enhance studentsrsquo employability skills Humber Research continues to actively pursue opportunities to engage in applied research with industry partners who can provide our students with engagement with current industry problems and challenges With the amalgamation of CONII (Colleges Ontario Network for Industry Innovation) and Ontario Centers of Excellence we anticipate expanded opportunities for funded applied research projects that will create meaningful experiences for students and faculty alike

5 Describe how Humberrsquos applied research activity supports its mission as a differentiated institution

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 79

At Humber research activity is directly tied to teaching and learning Applied research helps faculty members to create learning experiences that engage students in activities that take classroom learning into the workplace Applied research projects also help students to be workplace ready by reinforcing employability skills In addition applied research opportunities motivate faculty members to remain current in their areas of expertise and to continue to contribute to new knowledge in their fields

Applied research and innovation activities are evident in four main areas in the classroom including capstone projects through funded projects with industry partners through internally funded projects and at the Innovation Humber Incubator Both industry funded partnerships and internally funded projects offer research assistantships for students This year 58 students were engaged in a total of 12 funded projects and another 21 students were supported in entrepreneurial venture start-ups

Externally Funded Projects Externally funded projects with industry partners included three new CONII projects where students and faculty work with industry partners to respond to industry needs

i The CSMB-TV project engaged students and faculty in the School of Media Studies

and Information Technology (SMSIT) to create a platform for the launch of a web-based television network to serve small and medium-sized businesses and entrepreneurs This initial project has established a partnership that we confidently anticipate will lead to several new projects with SMSIT and other schools at Humber

ii A second project with industry partner Adam Bienenstock Natural Playgrounds

focused on gathering baseline data for future research Students from the Early Childhood Education (ECE) diploma and degree programs learned new research skills in the process of gathering and coding information about childrenrsquos play in the existing playground This summer a new outdoor learning environment will replace the playground to create a living laboratory for students faculty and other researchers interested in learning more about childrenrsquos engagement with the natural environment

iii A third project in collaboration with industry partner Cell 8 Games provided students

from the Game Programmer program with the opportunity to develop a new video game from the ideal phase to a working prototype which Cell 8 Games will commercialize and launch

Humber received its first National Science and Engineering Research Council CollegeUniversity Idea to Innovation (NSERC CU I2I) grant this year A faculty member in the School of Applied Technology will work with partners at Carleton University and industry partner MS Filters on a project to develop a new water treatment technology process for remote and northern communities Workstudy students from the Civil Engineering Technology program will participate in this project

Staff Initiated Research Fund (SIRF)

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 80

Humber provided funding for seven new staff initiated research projects through the SIRF program These projects enable faculty to pursue research interests that will engage student research assistants outside the classroom and which may lead to larger projects with industry partners For example the Natural Playgrounds project began as a SIRF project investigating preschool childrenrsquos responses to the natural world This year faculty and students engaged in projects ranging from creating a videogame to increase student engagement to investigating how consumers understand food nutrition labels Innovation Humber Incubator (IHI) Since its launch in 2012 the Innovation Humber Incubator funded by a grant from Ontario Centers of Excellence has launched a total of 31 ventures ndash 10 in 2011-12 and 21 in 2012-13 Students invited into the incubator in 2012-13 include those who applied for support from the New Venture Seed Fund as well as those who competed in the Friendly Fire Pitch Competition At present participating ventures range from an urban farming solution to a new fitness venture Students who participate in the IHI program are provided with mentors business resources and other support In exchange they agree that Humber may track their progress through their first year as a start-up Research in Teaching and Learning Humber has also been active in the area of research in teaching and learning and has received funding for participation in two projects through the Higher Education Quality Council of Ontario (HEQCO) The first piloted a tool for assessing student learning in generic skills using the Collegiate Learning Assessment (CLA) The second is a pilot project to develop a unique tool to measure student progress in genericemployability skills These projects complement our engagement in applied research projects that enhance studentsrsquo employability skills Humber Research continues to actively pursue opportunities to engage in applied research with industry partners who can provide our students with engagement with current industry problems and challenges With the amalgamation of CONII (Colleges Ontario Network for Industry Innovation) and Ontario Centers of Excellence we anticipate expanded opportunities for funded applied research projects that will create meaningful experiences for students and faculty alike

Finally students can build from one credential to another through transfer credit opportunities with more than 50 Canadian and international universities For students wishing to transfer from a diploma to a degree without the requirements several of Humberrsquos programs offer bridging courses over the summer months to ensure a seamless transition

5 Describe how Humberrsquos applied research activity supports its mission as a differentiated institution

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 79

At Humber research activity is directly tied to teaching and learning Applied research helps faculty members to create learning experiences that engage students in activities that take classroom learning into the workplace Applied research projects also help students to be workplace ready by reinforcing employability skills In addition applied research opportunities motivate faculty members to remain current in their areas of expertise and to continue to contribute to new knowledge in their fields

Applied research and innovation activities are evident in four main areas in the classroom including capstone projects through funded projects with industry partners through internally funded projects and at the Innovation Humber Incubator Both industry funded partnerships and internally funded projects offer research assistantships for students This year 58 students were engaged in a total of 12 funded projects and another 21 students were supported in entrepreneurial venture start-ups

Externally Funded Projects Externally funded projects with industry partners included three new CONII projects where students and faculty work with industry partners to respond to industry needs

i The CSMB-TV project engaged students and faculty in the School of Media Studies

and Information Technology (SMSIT) to create a platform for the launch of a web-based television network to serve small and medium-sized businesses and entrepreneurs This initial project has established a partnership that we confidently anticipate will lead to several new projects with SMSIT and other schools at Humber

ii A second project with industry partner Adam Bienenstock Natural Playgrounds

focused on gathering baseline data for future research Students from the Early Childhood Education (ECE) diploma and degree programs learned new research skills in the process of gathering and coding information about childrenrsquos play in the existing playground This summer a new outdoor learning environment will replace the playground to create a living laboratory for students faculty and other researchers interested in learning more about childrenrsquos engagement with the natural environment

iii A third project in collaboration with industry partner Cell 8 Games provided students

from the Game Programmer program with the opportunity to develop a new video game from the ideal phase to a working prototype which Cell 8 Games will commercialize and launch

Humber received its first National Science and Engineering Research Council CollegeUniversity Idea to Innovation (NSERC CU I2I) grant this year A faculty member in the School of Applied Technology will work with partners at Carleton University and industry partner MS Filters on a project to develop a new water treatment technology process for remote and northern communities Workstudy students from the Civil Engineering Technology program will participate in this project

Staff Initiated Research Fund (SIRF)

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 80

Humber provided funding for seven new staff initiated research projects through the SIRF program These projects enable faculty to pursue research interests that will engage student research assistants outside the classroom and which may lead to larger projects with industry partners For example the Natural Playgrounds project began as a SIRF project investigating preschool childrenrsquos responses to the natural world This year faculty and students engaged in projects ranging from creating a videogame to increase student engagement to investigating how consumers understand food nutrition labels Innovation Humber Incubator (IHI) Since its launch in 2012 the Innovation Humber Incubator funded by a grant from Ontario Centers of Excellence has launched a total of 31 ventures ndash 10 in 2011-12 and 21 in 2012-13 Students invited into the incubator in 2012-13 include those who applied for support from the New Venture Seed Fund as well as those who competed in the Friendly Fire Pitch Competition At present participating ventures range from an urban farming solution to a new fitness venture Students who participate in the IHI program are provided with mentors business resources and other support In exchange they agree that Humber may track their progress through their first year as a start-up Research in Teaching and Learning Humber has also been active in the area of research in teaching and learning and has received funding for participation in two projects through the Higher Education Quality Council of Ontario (HEQCO) The first piloted a tool for assessing student learning in generic skills using the Collegiate Learning Assessment (CLA) The second is a pilot project to develop a unique tool to measure student progress in genericemployability skills These projects complement our engagement in applied research projects that enhance studentsrsquo employability skills Humber Research continues to actively pursue opportunities to engage in applied research with industry partners who can provide our students with engagement with current industry problems and challenges With the amalgamation of CONII (Colleges Ontario Network for Industry Innovation) and Ontario Centers of Excellence we anticipate expanded opportunities for funded applied research projects that will create meaningful experiences for students and faculty alike

Finally students can build from one credential to another through transfer credit opportunities with more than 50 Canadian and international universities For students wishing to transfer from a diploma to a degree without the requirements several of Humberrsquos programs offer bridging courses over the summer months to ensure a seamless transition

5 Describe how Humberrsquos applied research activity supports its mission as a differentiated institution

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 79

At Humber research activity is directly tied to teaching and learning Applied research helps faculty members to create learning experiences that engage students in activities that take classroom learning into the workplace Applied research projects also help students to be workplace ready by reinforcing employability skills In addition applied research opportunities motivate faculty members to remain current in their areas of expertise and to continue to contribute to new knowledge in their fields

Applied research and innovation activities are evident in four main areas in the classroom including capstone projects through funded projects with industry partners through internally funded projects and at the Innovation Humber Incubator Both industry funded partnerships and internally funded projects offer research assistantships for students This year 58 students were engaged in a total of 12 funded projects and another 21 students were supported in entrepreneurial venture start-ups

Externally Funded Projects Externally funded projects with industry partners included three new CONII projects where students and faculty work with industry partners to respond to industry needs

i The CSMB-TV project engaged students and faculty in the School of Media Studies

and Information Technology (SMSIT) to create a platform for the launch of a web-based television network to serve small and medium-sized businesses and entrepreneurs This initial project has established a partnership that we confidently anticipate will lead to several new projects with SMSIT and other schools at Humber

ii A second project with industry partner Adam Bienenstock Natural Playgrounds

focused on gathering baseline data for future research Students from the Early Childhood Education (ECE) diploma and degree programs learned new research skills in the process of gathering and coding information about childrenrsquos play in the existing playground This summer a new outdoor learning environment will replace the playground to create a living laboratory for students faculty and other researchers interested in learning more about childrenrsquos engagement with the natural environment

iii A third project in collaboration with industry partner Cell 8 Games provided students

from the Game Programmer program with the opportunity to develop a new video game from the ideal phase to a working prototype which Cell 8 Games will commercialize and launch

Humber received its first National Science and Engineering Research Council CollegeUniversity Idea to Innovation (NSERC CU I2I) grant this year A faculty member in the School of Applied Technology will work with partners at Carleton University and industry partner MS Filters on a project to develop a new water treatment technology process for remote and northern communities Workstudy students from the Civil Engineering Technology program will participate in this project

Staff Initiated Research Fund (SIRF)

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 80

Humber provided funding for seven new staff initiated research projects through the SIRF program These projects enable faculty to pursue research interests that will engage student research assistants outside the classroom and which may lead to larger projects with industry partners For example the Natural Playgrounds project began as a SIRF project investigating preschool childrenrsquos responses to the natural world This year faculty and students engaged in projects ranging from creating a videogame to increase student engagement to investigating how consumers understand food nutrition labels Innovation Humber Incubator (IHI) Since its launch in 2012 the Innovation Humber Incubator funded by a grant from Ontario Centers of Excellence has launched a total of 31 ventures ndash 10 in 2011-12 and 21 in 2012-13 Students invited into the incubator in 2012-13 include those who applied for support from the New Venture Seed Fund as well as those who competed in the Friendly Fire Pitch Competition At present participating ventures range from an urban farming solution to a new fitness venture Students who participate in the IHI program are provided with mentors business resources and other support In exchange they agree that Humber may track their progress through their first year as a start-up Research in Teaching and Learning Humber has also been active in the area of research in teaching and learning and has received funding for participation in two projects through the Higher Education Quality Council of Ontario (HEQCO) The first piloted a tool for assessing student learning in generic skills using the Collegiate Learning Assessment (CLA) The second is a pilot project to develop a unique tool to measure student progress in genericemployability skills These projects complement our engagement in applied research projects that enhance studentsrsquo employability skills Humber Research continues to actively pursue opportunities to engage in applied research with industry partners who can provide our students with engagement with current industry problems and challenges With the amalgamation of CONII (Colleges Ontario Network for Industry Innovation) and Ontario Centers of Excellence we anticipate expanded opportunities for funded applied research projects that will create meaningful experiences for students and faculty alike

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 79

At Humber research activity is directly tied to teaching and learning Applied research helps faculty members to create learning experiences that engage students in activities that take classroom learning into the workplace Applied research projects also help students to be workplace ready by reinforcing employability skills In addition applied research opportunities motivate faculty members to remain current in their areas of expertise and to continue to contribute to new knowledge in their fields

Applied research and innovation activities are evident in four main areas in the classroom including capstone projects through funded projects with industry partners through internally funded projects and at the Innovation Humber Incubator Both industry funded partnerships and internally funded projects offer research assistantships for students This year 58 students were engaged in a total of 12 funded projects and another 21 students were supported in entrepreneurial venture start-ups

Externally Funded Projects Externally funded projects with industry partners included three new CONII projects where students and faculty work with industry partners to respond to industry needs

i The CSMB-TV project engaged students and faculty in the School of Media Studies

and Information Technology (SMSIT) to create a platform for the launch of a web-based television network to serve small and medium-sized businesses and entrepreneurs This initial project has established a partnership that we confidently anticipate will lead to several new projects with SMSIT and other schools at Humber

ii A second project with industry partner Adam Bienenstock Natural Playgrounds

focused on gathering baseline data for future research Students from the Early Childhood Education (ECE) diploma and degree programs learned new research skills in the process of gathering and coding information about childrenrsquos play in the existing playground This summer a new outdoor learning environment will replace the playground to create a living laboratory for students faculty and other researchers interested in learning more about childrenrsquos engagement with the natural environment

iii A third project in collaboration with industry partner Cell 8 Games provided students

from the Game Programmer program with the opportunity to develop a new video game from the ideal phase to a working prototype which Cell 8 Games will commercialize and launch

Humber received its first National Science and Engineering Research Council CollegeUniversity Idea to Innovation (NSERC CU I2I) grant this year A faculty member in the School of Applied Technology will work with partners at Carleton University and industry partner MS Filters on a project to develop a new water treatment technology process for remote and northern communities Workstudy students from the Civil Engineering Technology program will participate in this project

Staff Initiated Research Fund (SIRF)

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 80

Humber provided funding for seven new staff initiated research projects through the SIRF program These projects enable faculty to pursue research interests that will engage student research assistants outside the classroom and which may lead to larger projects with industry partners For example the Natural Playgrounds project began as a SIRF project investigating preschool childrenrsquos responses to the natural world This year faculty and students engaged in projects ranging from creating a videogame to increase student engagement to investigating how consumers understand food nutrition labels Innovation Humber Incubator (IHI) Since its launch in 2012 the Innovation Humber Incubator funded by a grant from Ontario Centers of Excellence has launched a total of 31 ventures ndash 10 in 2011-12 and 21 in 2012-13 Students invited into the incubator in 2012-13 include those who applied for support from the New Venture Seed Fund as well as those who competed in the Friendly Fire Pitch Competition At present participating ventures range from an urban farming solution to a new fitness venture Students who participate in the IHI program are provided with mentors business resources and other support In exchange they agree that Humber may track their progress through their first year as a start-up Research in Teaching and Learning Humber has also been active in the area of research in teaching and learning and has received funding for participation in two projects through the Higher Education Quality Council of Ontario (HEQCO) The first piloted a tool for assessing student learning in generic skills using the Collegiate Learning Assessment (CLA) The second is a pilot project to develop a unique tool to measure student progress in genericemployability skills These projects complement our engagement in applied research projects that enhance studentsrsquo employability skills Humber Research continues to actively pursue opportunities to engage in applied research with industry partners who can provide our students with engagement with current industry problems and challenges With the amalgamation of CONII (Colleges Ontario Network for Industry Innovation) and Ontario Centers of Excellence we anticipate expanded opportunities for funded applied research projects that will create meaningful experiences for students and faculty alike

Humber provides the required components towards an apprenticeship including technical theory practical job experience and in-school training Students learn valuable skills by using the latest industry software programs and working in fully equipped up-to-date labs and shops At Humber skilled instructors highlight current trends within the industry and strive to duplicate situations that apprentices and skilled tradespeople will see in their everyday working life

Humber offered 12 apprenticeship programs in 2012-13

Apprenticeship Program 2012 Enrolment Arborist Apprenticeship 103 Baker 17 Cook (Cuisine) Apprenticeship 219 Chef Program for Journeyman Cooks - Culinary Co-op Diploma Apprenticeship - Construction Boilermaker Apprenticeship 189 Developmental Service Worker Apprenticeship 458 Electrician Construction and Maintenance Apprenticeship 1080 Industrial Electrician Apprenticeship 7 Institutional Cook 13 Horticultural Technician Apprenticeship 76 Network Cabling Specialist Apprenticeship 15 Plumber Apprenticeship 421 Solar Photovoltaic 20

4 Describe how Humber is ensuring that diploma graduates have access to degree programs and how many graduates access degree education To meet the needs of all postsecondary learners Humber offers several pathways from diploma programs into degree programs The first pathway is for students to transfer from a Humber diploma program to a Humber degree program As an Institute of Technology and Advanced Learning Humber is able to offer up to 15 per cent of its programs at the baccalaureate degree level In 2012-2013 Humber offered 17 degrees (plus nursing) Humber currently represents just over 31 per cent of all college degree enrolment in Ontario In September 2013 this number will increase to 21 degree programs (plus nursing) and over the next five to seven years Humber plans to offer approximately 25 to 30 baccalaureate degrees that resonate with potential students and respond to labour market demands All new degrees have pathways for diploma students from Humber or any other Ontario college In Fall 2012 64 students transferred from Humber Diploma to Humber Degree programs

The second pathway ensuring degree access is from a Humber diploma into a Guelph-Humber degree program The University of Guelph-Humber is located on Humberrsquos North Campus offering over 3850 students seven undergraduate degree programs Students are able to transfer from a number of Humber diploma programs including

bull Business Administration rarr Hon Bachelor of Business Administration bull Early Childhood Education rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Early Childhood bull Social Service Worker rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Family amp Community

Social Services bull Police Foundations rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Justice Studies bull Fitness amp Health Promotion rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Kinesiology bull Media Communications rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Arts in Media Studies bull General Arts amp Science University Transfer certificate rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied

Science in Psychology

Since the launch of Guelph-Humber over 590 students have transferred from Humber Diploma to Guelph-Humber Degree programs

Finally students can build from one credential to another through transfer credit opportunities with more than 50 Canadian and international universities For students wishing to transfer from a diploma to a degree without the requirements several of Humberrsquos programs offer bridging courses over the summer months to ensure a seamless transition

5 Describe how Humberrsquos applied research activity supports its mission as a differentiated institution

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 79

At Humber research activity is directly tied to teaching and learning Applied research helps faculty members to create learning experiences that engage students in activities that take classroom learning into the workplace Applied research projects also help students to be workplace ready by reinforcing employability skills In addition applied research opportunities motivate faculty members to remain current in their areas of expertise and to continue to contribute to new knowledge in their fields

Applied research and innovation activities are evident in four main areas in the classroom including capstone projects through funded projects with industry partners through internally funded projects and at the Innovation Humber Incubator Both industry funded partnerships and internally funded projects offer research assistantships for students This year 58 students were engaged in a total of 12 funded projects and another 21 students were supported in entrepreneurial venture start-ups

Externally Funded Projects Externally funded projects with industry partners included three new CONII projects where students and faculty work with industry partners to respond to industry needs

i The CSMB-TV project engaged students and faculty in the School of Media Studies

and Information Technology (SMSIT) to create a platform for the launch of a web-based television network to serve small and medium-sized businesses and entrepreneurs This initial project has established a partnership that we confidently anticipate will lead to several new projects with SMSIT and other schools at Humber

ii A second project with industry partner Adam Bienenstock Natural Playgrounds

focused on gathering baseline data for future research Students from the Early Childhood Education (ECE) diploma and degree programs learned new research skills in the process of gathering and coding information about childrenrsquos play in the existing playground This summer a new outdoor learning environment will replace the playground to create a living laboratory for students faculty and other researchers interested in learning more about childrenrsquos engagement with the natural environment

iii A third project in collaboration with industry partner Cell 8 Games provided students

from the Game Programmer program with the opportunity to develop a new video game from the ideal phase to a working prototype which Cell 8 Games will commercialize and launch

Humber received its first National Science and Engineering Research Council CollegeUniversity Idea to Innovation (NSERC CU I2I) grant this year A faculty member in the School of Applied Technology will work with partners at Carleton University and industry partner MS Filters on a project to develop a new water treatment technology process for remote and northern communities Workstudy students from the Civil Engineering Technology program will participate in this project

Staff Initiated Research Fund (SIRF)

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 80

Humber provided funding for seven new staff initiated research projects through the SIRF program These projects enable faculty to pursue research interests that will engage student research assistants outside the classroom and which may lead to larger projects with industry partners For example the Natural Playgrounds project began as a SIRF project investigating preschool childrenrsquos responses to the natural world This year faculty and students engaged in projects ranging from creating a videogame to increase student engagement to investigating how consumers understand food nutrition labels Innovation Humber Incubator (IHI) Since its launch in 2012 the Innovation Humber Incubator funded by a grant from Ontario Centers of Excellence has launched a total of 31 ventures ndash 10 in 2011-12 and 21 in 2012-13 Students invited into the incubator in 2012-13 include those who applied for support from the New Venture Seed Fund as well as those who competed in the Friendly Fire Pitch Competition At present participating ventures range from an urban farming solution to a new fitness venture Students who participate in the IHI program are provided with mentors business resources and other support In exchange they agree that Humber may track their progress through their first year as a start-up Research in Teaching and Learning Humber has also been active in the area of research in teaching and learning and has received funding for participation in two projects through the Higher Education Quality Council of Ontario (HEQCO) The first piloted a tool for assessing student learning in generic skills using the Collegiate Learning Assessment (CLA) The second is a pilot project to develop a unique tool to measure student progress in genericemployability skills These projects complement our engagement in applied research projects that enhance studentsrsquo employability skills Humber Research continues to actively pursue opportunities to engage in applied research with industry partners who can provide our students with engagement with current industry problems and challenges With the amalgamation of CONII (Colleges Ontario Network for Industry Innovation) and Ontario Centers of Excellence we anticipate expanded opportunities for funded applied research projects that will create meaningful experiences for students and faculty alike

Finally students can build from one credential to another through transfer credit opportunities with more than 50 Canadian and international universities For students wishing to transfer from a diploma to a degree without the requirements several of Humberrsquos programs offer bridging courses over the summer months to ensure a seamless transition

5 Describe how Humberrsquos applied research activity supports its mission as a differentiated institution

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 79

At Humber research activity is directly tied to teaching and learning Applied research helps faculty members to create learning experiences that engage students in activities that take classroom learning into the workplace Applied research projects also help students to be workplace ready by reinforcing employability skills In addition applied research opportunities motivate faculty members to remain current in their areas of expertise and to continue to contribute to new knowledge in their fields

Applied research and innovation activities are evident in four main areas in the classroom including capstone projects through funded projects with industry partners through internally funded projects and at the Innovation Humber Incubator Both industry funded partnerships and internally funded projects offer research assistantships for students This year 58 students were engaged in a total of 12 funded projects and another 21 students were supported in entrepreneurial venture start-ups

Externally Funded Projects Externally funded projects with industry partners included three new CONII projects where students and faculty work with industry partners to respond to industry needs

i The CSMB-TV project engaged students and faculty in the School of Media Studies

and Information Technology (SMSIT) to create a platform for the launch of a web-based television network to serve small and medium-sized businesses and entrepreneurs This initial project has established a partnership that we confidently anticipate will lead to several new projects with SMSIT and other schools at Humber

ii A second project with industry partner Adam Bienenstock Natural Playgrounds

focused on gathering baseline data for future research Students from the Early Childhood Education (ECE) diploma and degree programs learned new research skills in the process of gathering and coding information about childrenrsquos play in the existing playground This summer a new outdoor learning environment will replace the playground to create a living laboratory for students faculty and other researchers interested in learning more about childrenrsquos engagement with the natural environment

iii A third project in collaboration with industry partner Cell 8 Games provided students

from the Game Programmer program with the opportunity to develop a new video game from the ideal phase to a working prototype which Cell 8 Games will commercialize and launch

Humber received its first National Science and Engineering Research Council CollegeUniversity Idea to Innovation (NSERC CU I2I) grant this year A faculty member in the School of Applied Technology will work with partners at Carleton University and industry partner MS Filters on a project to develop a new water treatment technology process for remote and northern communities Workstudy students from the Civil Engineering Technology program will participate in this project

Staff Initiated Research Fund (SIRF)

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 80

Humber provided funding for seven new staff initiated research projects through the SIRF program These projects enable faculty to pursue research interests that will engage student research assistants outside the classroom and which may lead to larger projects with industry partners For example the Natural Playgrounds project began as a SIRF project investigating preschool childrenrsquos responses to the natural world This year faculty and students engaged in projects ranging from creating a videogame to increase student engagement to investigating how consumers understand food nutrition labels Innovation Humber Incubator (IHI) Since its launch in 2012 the Innovation Humber Incubator funded by a grant from Ontario Centers of Excellence has launched a total of 31 ventures ndash 10 in 2011-12 and 21 in 2012-13 Students invited into the incubator in 2012-13 include those who applied for support from the New Venture Seed Fund as well as those who competed in the Friendly Fire Pitch Competition At present participating ventures range from an urban farming solution to a new fitness venture Students who participate in the IHI program are provided with mentors business resources and other support In exchange they agree that Humber may track their progress through their first year as a start-up Research in Teaching and Learning Humber has also been active in the area of research in teaching and learning and has received funding for participation in two projects through the Higher Education Quality Council of Ontario (HEQCO) The first piloted a tool for assessing student learning in generic skills using the Collegiate Learning Assessment (CLA) The second is a pilot project to develop a unique tool to measure student progress in genericemployability skills These projects complement our engagement in applied research projects that enhance studentsrsquo employability skills Humber Research continues to actively pursue opportunities to engage in applied research with industry partners who can provide our students with engagement with current industry problems and challenges With the amalgamation of CONII (Colleges Ontario Network for Industry Innovation) and Ontario Centers of Excellence we anticipate expanded opportunities for funded applied research projects that will create meaningful experiences for students and faculty alike

2 Describe how Humber is doing its part to build up the apprenticeship system in Ontario to increase the skilled labour market supply through in-school training expanding the range of apprenticeship programming developing learning pathways for apprentices who wish to ladder into diploma programs and vice versa Provide enrolment data for the apprenticeship programs Humber offers

Humberrsquos Centre for Trades and Technology was developed in 2009 Humber invested over $16 million in the centre including a $7 million contribution from the Ontario Ministry of Training Colleges and Universities The 95000 square foot facility offers students in skilled trade diploma certificate and apprenticeship programs an opportunity to train in state-of-the-art industry-simulated settings under industry mandated standards Through the development of this centre Humber is helping to address the critical shortage of skilled trade workers

Humber provides the required components towards an apprenticeship including technical theory practical job experience and in-school training Students learn valuable skills by using the latest industry software programs and working in fully equipped up-to-date labs and shops At Humber skilled instructors highlight current trends within the industry and strive to duplicate situations that apprentices and skilled tradespeople will see in their everyday working life

5 Describe how Humberrsquos applied research activity supports its mission as a differentiated institution

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 79

At Humber research activity is directly tied to teaching and learning Applied research helps faculty members to create learning experiences that engage students in activities that take classroom learning into the workplace Applied research projects also help students to be workplace ready by reinforcing employability skills In addition applied research opportunities motivate faculty members to remain current in their areas of expertise and to continue to contribute to new knowledge in their fields

Applied research and innovation activities are evident in four main areas in the classroom including capstone projects through funded projects with industry partners through internally funded projects and at the Innovation Humber Incubator Both industry funded partnerships and internally funded projects offer research assistantships for students This year 58 students were engaged in a total of 12 funded projects and another 21 students were supported in entrepreneurial venture start-ups

Externally Funded Projects Externally funded projects with industry partners included three new CONII projects where students and faculty work with industry partners to respond to industry needs

i The CSMB-TV project engaged students and faculty in the School of Media Studies

and Information Technology (SMSIT) to create a platform for the launch of a web-based television network to serve small and medium-sized businesses and entrepreneurs This initial project has established a partnership that we confidently anticipate will lead to several new projects with SMSIT and other schools at Humber

ii A second project with industry partner Adam Bienenstock Natural Playgrounds

focused on gathering baseline data for future research Students from the Early Childhood Education (ECE) diploma and degree programs learned new research skills in the process of gathering and coding information about childrenrsquos play in the existing playground This summer a new outdoor learning environment will replace the playground to create a living laboratory for students faculty and other researchers interested in learning more about childrenrsquos engagement with the natural environment

iii A third project in collaboration with industry partner Cell 8 Games provided students

from the Game Programmer program with the opportunity to develop a new video game from the ideal phase to a working prototype which Cell 8 Games will commercialize and launch

Humber received its first National Science and Engineering Research Council CollegeUniversity Idea to Innovation (NSERC CU I2I) grant this year A faculty member in the School of Applied Technology will work with partners at Carleton University and industry partner MS Filters on a project to develop a new water treatment technology process for remote and northern communities Workstudy students from the Civil Engineering Technology program will participate in this project

Staff Initiated Research Fund (SIRF)

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 80

Humber provided funding for seven new staff initiated research projects through the SIRF program These projects enable faculty to pursue research interests that will engage student research assistants outside the classroom and which may lead to larger projects with industry partners For example the Natural Playgrounds project began as a SIRF project investigating preschool childrenrsquos responses to the natural world This year faculty and students engaged in projects ranging from creating a videogame to increase student engagement to investigating how consumers understand food nutrition labels Innovation Humber Incubator (IHI) Since its launch in 2012 the Innovation Humber Incubator funded by a grant from Ontario Centers of Excellence has launched a total of 31 ventures ndash 10 in 2011-12 and 21 in 2012-13 Students invited into the incubator in 2012-13 include those who applied for support from the New Venture Seed Fund as well as those who competed in the Friendly Fire Pitch Competition At present participating ventures range from an urban farming solution to a new fitness venture Students who participate in the IHI program are provided with mentors business resources and other support In exchange they agree that Humber may track their progress through their first year as a start-up Research in Teaching and Learning Humber has also been active in the area of research in teaching and learning and has received funding for participation in two projects through the Higher Education Quality Council of Ontario (HEQCO) The first piloted a tool for assessing student learning in generic skills using the Collegiate Learning Assessment (CLA) The second is a pilot project to develop a unique tool to measure student progress in genericemployability skills These projects complement our engagement in applied research projects that enhance studentsrsquo employability skills Humber Research continues to actively pursue opportunities to engage in applied research with industry partners who can provide our students with engagement with current industry problems and challenges With the amalgamation of CONII (Colleges Ontario Network for Industry Innovation) and Ontario Centers of Excellence we anticipate expanded opportunities for funded applied research projects that will create meaningful experiences for students and faculty alike

2 Describe how Humber is doing its part to build up the apprenticeship system in Ontario to increase the skilled labour market supply through in-school training expanding the range of apprenticeship programming developing learning pathways for apprentices who wish to ladder into diploma programs and vice versa Provide enrolment data for the apprenticeship programs Humber offers

Humberrsquos Centre for Trades and Technology was developed in 2009 Humber invested over $16 million in the centre including a $7 million contribution from the Ontario Ministry of Training Colleges and Universities The 95000 square foot facility offers students in skilled trade diploma certificate and apprenticeship programs an opportunity to train in state-of-the-art industry-simulated settings under industry mandated standards Through the development of this centre Humber is helping to address the critical shortage of skilled trade workers

Humber provides the required components towards an apprenticeship including technical theory practical job experience and in-school training Students learn valuable skills by using the latest industry software programs and working in fully equipped up-to-date labs and shops At Humber skilled instructors highlight current trends within the industry and strive to duplicate situations that apprentices and skilled tradespeople will see in their everyday working life

Humber offered 12 apprenticeship programs in 2012-13

Apprenticeship Program 2012 Enrolment Arborist Apprenticeship 103 Baker 17 Cook (Cuisine) Apprenticeship 219 Chef Program for Journeyman Cooks - Culinary Co-op Diploma Apprenticeship - Construction Boilermaker Apprenticeship 189 Developmental Service Worker Apprenticeship 458 Electrician Construction and Maintenance Apprenticeship 1080 Industrial Electrician Apprenticeship 7 Institutional Cook 13 Horticultural Technician Apprenticeship 76 Network Cabling Specialist Apprenticeship 15 Plumber Apprenticeship 421 Solar Photovoltaic 20

4 Describe how Humber is ensuring that diploma graduates have access to degree programs and how many graduates access degree education To meet the needs of all postsecondary learners Humber offers several pathways from diploma programs into degree programs The first pathway is for students to transfer from a Humber diploma program to a Humber degree program As an Institute of Technology and Advanced Learning Humber is able to offer up to 15 per cent of its programs at the baccalaureate degree level In 2012-2013 Humber offered 17 degrees (plus nursing) Humber currently represents just over 31 per cent of all college degree enrolment in Ontario In September 2013 this number will increase to 21 degree programs (plus nursing) and over the next five to seven years Humber plans to offer approximately 25 to 30 baccalaureate degrees that resonate with potential students and respond to labour market demands All new degrees have pathways for diploma students from Humber or any other Ontario college In Fall 2012 64 students transferred from Humber Diploma to Humber Degree programs

The second pathway ensuring degree access is from a Humber diploma into a Guelph-Humber degree program The University of Guelph-Humber is located on Humberrsquos North Campus offering over 3850 students seven undergraduate degree programs Students are able to transfer from a number of Humber diploma programs including

bull Business Administration rarr Hon Bachelor of Business Administration bull Early Childhood Education rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Early Childhood bull Social Service Worker rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Family amp Community

Social Services bull Police Foundations rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Justice Studies bull Fitness amp Health Promotion rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Kinesiology bull Media Communications rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Arts in Media Studies bull General Arts amp Science University Transfer certificate rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied

Science in Psychology

Since the launch of Guelph-Humber over 590 students have transferred from Humber Diploma to Guelph-Humber Degree programs

Finally students can build from one credential to another through transfer credit opportunities with more than 50 Canadian and international universities For students wishing to transfer from a diploma to a degree without the requirements several of Humberrsquos programs offer bridging courses over the summer months to ensure a seamless transition

5 Describe how Humberrsquos applied research activity supports its mission as a differentiated institution

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 79

At Humber research activity is directly tied to teaching and learning Applied research helps faculty members to create learning experiences that engage students in activities that take classroom learning into the workplace Applied research projects also help students to be workplace ready by reinforcing employability skills In addition applied research opportunities motivate faculty members to remain current in their areas of expertise and to continue to contribute to new knowledge in their fields

Applied research and innovation activities are evident in four main areas in the classroom including capstone projects through funded projects with industry partners through internally funded projects and at the Innovation Humber Incubator Both industry funded partnerships and internally funded projects offer research assistantships for students This year 58 students were engaged in a total of 12 funded projects and another 21 students were supported in entrepreneurial venture start-ups

Externally Funded Projects Externally funded projects with industry partners included three new CONII projects where students and faculty work with industry partners to respond to industry needs

i The CSMB-TV project engaged students and faculty in the School of Media Studies

and Information Technology (SMSIT) to create a platform for the launch of a web-based television network to serve small and medium-sized businesses and entrepreneurs This initial project has established a partnership that we confidently anticipate will lead to several new projects with SMSIT and other schools at Humber

ii A second project with industry partner Adam Bienenstock Natural Playgrounds

focused on gathering baseline data for future research Students from the Early Childhood Education (ECE) diploma and degree programs learned new research skills in the process of gathering and coding information about childrenrsquos play in the existing playground This summer a new outdoor learning environment will replace the playground to create a living laboratory for students faculty and other researchers interested in learning more about childrenrsquos engagement with the natural environment

iii A third project in collaboration with industry partner Cell 8 Games provided students

from the Game Programmer program with the opportunity to develop a new video game from the ideal phase to a working prototype which Cell 8 Games will commercialize and launch

Humber received its first National Science and Engineering Research Council CollegeUniversity Idea to Innovation (NSERC CU I2I) grant this year A faculty member in the School of Applied Technology will work with partners at Carleton University and industry partner MS Filters on a project to develop a new water treatment technology process for remote and northern communities Workstudy students from the Civil Engineering Technology program will participate in this project

Staff Initiated Research Fund (SIRF)

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 80

Humber provided funding for seven new staff initiated research projects through the SIRF program These projects enable faculty to pursue research interests that will engage student research assistants outside the classroom and which may lead to larger projects with industry partners For example the Natural Playgrounds project began as a SIRF project investigating preschool childrenrsquos responses to the natural world This year faculty and students engaged in projects ranging from creating a videogame to increase student engagement to investigating how consumers understand food nutrition labels Innovation Humber Incubator (IHI) Since its launch in 2012 the Innovation Humber Incubator funded by a grant from Ontario Centers of Excellence has launched a total of 31 ventures ndash 10 in 2011-12 and 21 in 2012-13 Students invited into the incubator in 2012-13 include those who applied for support from the New Venture Seed Fund as well as those who competed in the Friendly Fire Pitch Competition At present participating ventures range from an urban farming solution to a new fitness venture Students who participate in the IHI program are provided with mentors business resources and other support In exchange they agree that Humber may track their progress through their first year as a start-up Research in Teaching and Learning Humber has also been active in the area of research in teaching and learning and has received funding for participation in two projects through the Higher Education Quality Council of Ontario (HEQCO) The first piloted a tool for assessing student learning in generic skills using the Collegiate Learning Assessment (CLA) The second is a pilot project to develop a unique tool to measure student progress in genericemployability skills These projects complement our engagement in applied research projects that enhance studentsrsquo employability skills Humber Research continues to actively pursue opportunities to engage in applied research with industry partners who can provide our students with engagement with current industry problems and challenges With the amalgamation of CONII (Colleges Ontario Network for Industry Innovation) and Ontario Centers of Excellence we anticipate expanded opportunities for funded applied research projects that will create meaningful experiences for students and faculty alike

2 Describe how Humber is doing its part to build up the apprenticeship system in Ontario to increase the skilled labour market supply through in-school training expanding the range of apprenticeship programming developing learning pathways for apprentices who wish to ladder into diploma programs and vice versa Provide enrolment data for the apprenticeship programs Humber offers

Humberrsquos Centre for Trades and Technology was developed in 2009 Humber invested over $16 million in the centre including a $7 million contribution from the Ontario Ministry of Training Colleges and Universities The 95000 square foot facility offers students in skilled trade diploma certificate and apprenticeship programs an opportunity to train in state-of-the-art industry-simulated settings under industry mandated standards Through the development of this centre Humber is helping to address the critical shortage of skilled trade workers

Humber provides the required components towards an apprenticeship including technical theory practical job experience and in-school training Students learn valuable skills by using the latest industry software programs and working in fully equipped up-to-date labs and shops At Humber skilled instructors highlight current trends within the industry and strive to duplicate situations that apprentices and skilled tradespeople will see in their everyday working life

Humber offered 12 apprenticeship programs in 2012-13

Apprenticeship Program 2012 Enrolment Arborist Apprenticeship 103 Baker 17 Cook (Cuisine) Apprenticeship 219 Chef Program for Journeyman Cooks - Culinary Co-op Diploma Apprenticeship - Construction Boilermaker Apprenticeship 189 Developmental Service Worker Apprenticeship 458 Electrician Construction and Maintenance Apprenticeship 1080 Industrial Electrician Apprenticeship 7 Institutional Cook 13 Horticultural Technician Apprenticeship 76 Network Cabling Specialist Apprenticeship 15 Plumber Apprenticeship 421 Solar Photovoltaic 20

4 Describe how Humber is ensuring that diploma graduates have access to degree programs and how many graduates access degree education To meet the needs of all postsecondary learners Humber offers several pathways from diploma programs into degree programs The first pathway is for students to transfer from a Humber diploma program to a Humber degree program As an Institute of Technology and Advanced Learning Humber is able to offer up to 15 per cent of its programs at the baccalaureate degree level In 2012-2013 Humber offered 17 degrees (plus nursing) Humber currently represents just over 31 per cent of all college degree enrolment in Ontario In September 2013 this number will increase to 21 degree programs (plus nursing) and over the next five to seven years Humber plans to offer approximately 25 to 30 baccalaureate degrees that resonate with potential students and respond to labour market demands All new degrees have pathways for diploma students from Humber or any other Ontario college In Fall 2012 64 students transferred from Humber Diploma to Humber Degree programs

The second pathway ensuring degree access is from a Humber diploma into a Guelph-Humber degree program The University of Guelph-Humber is located on Humberrsquos North Campus offering over 3850 students seven undergraduate degree programs Students are able to transfer from a number of Humber diploma programs including

bull Business Administration rarr Hon Bachelor of Business Administration bull Early Childhood Education rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Early Childhood bull Social Service Worker rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Family amp Community

Social Services bull Police Foundations rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Justice Studies bull Fitness amp Health Promotion rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Kinesiology bull Media Communications rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Arts in Media Studies bull General Arts amp Science University Transfer certificate rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied

Science in Psychology

Since the launch of Guelph-Humber over 590 students have transferred from Humber Diploma to Guelph-Humber Degree programs

Finally students can build from one credential to another through transfer credit opportunities with more than 50 Canadian and international universities For students wishing to transfer from a diploma to a degree without the requirements several of Humberrsquos programs offer bridging courses over the summer months to ensure a seamless transition

5 Describe how Humberrsquos applied research activity supports its mission as a differentiated institution

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 79

At Humber research activity is directly tied to teaching and learning Applied research helps faculty members to create learning experiences that engage students in activities that take classroom learning into the workplace Applied research projects also help students to be workplace ready by reinforcing employability skills In addition applied research opportunities motivate faculty members to remain current in their areas of expertise and to continue to contribute to new knowledge in their fields

Applied research and innovation activities are evident in four main areas in the classroom including capstone projects through funded projects with industry partners through internally funded projects and at the Innovation Humber Incubator Both industry funded partnerships and internally funded projects offer research assistantships for students This year 58 students were engaged in a total of 12 funded projects and another 21 students were supported in entrepreneurial venture start-ups

Externally Funded Projects Externally funded projects with industry partners included three new CONII projects where students and faculty work with industry partners to respond to industry needs

i The CSMB-TV project engaged students and faculty in the School of Media Studies

and Information Technology (SMSIT) to create a platform for the launch of a web-based television network to serve small and medium-sized businesses and entrepreneurs This initial project has established a partnership that we confidently anticipate will lead to several new projects with SMSIT and other schools at Humber

ii A second project with industry partner Adam Bienenstock Natural Playgrounds

focused on gathering baseline data for future research Students from the Early Childhood Education (ECE) diploma and degree programs learned new research skills in the process of gathering and coding information about childrenrsquos play in the existing playground This summer a new outdoor learning environment will replace the playground to create a living laboratory for students faculty and other researchers interested in learning more about childrenrsquos engagement with the natural environment

iii A third project in collaboration with industry partner Cell 8 Games provided students

from the Game Programmer program with the opportunity to develop a new video game from the ideal phase to a working prototype which Cell 8 Games will commercialize and launch

Humber received its first National Science and Engineering Research Council CollegeUniversity Idea to Innovation (NSERC CU I2I) grant this year A faculty member in the School of Applied Technology will work with partners at Carleton University and industry partner MS Filters on a project to develop a new water treatment technology process for remote and northern communities Workstudy students from the Civil Engineering Technology program will participate in this project

Staff Initiated Research Fund (SIRF)

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 80

Humber provided funding for seven new staff initiated research projects through the SIRF program These projects enable faculty to pursue research interests that will engage student research assistants outside the classroom and which may lead to larger projects with industry partners For example the Natural Playgrounds project began as a SIRF project investigating preschool childrenrsquos responses to the natural world This year faculty and students engaged in projects ranging from creating a videogame to increase student engagement to investigating how consumers understand food nutrition labels Innovation Humber Incubator (IHI) Since its launch in 2012 the Innovation Humber Incubator funded by a grant from Ontario Centers of Excellence has launched a total of 31 ventures ndash 10 in 2011-12 and 21 in 2012-13 Students invited into the incubator in 2012-13 include those who applied for support from the New Venture Seed Fund as well as those who competed in the Friendly Fire Pitch Competition At present participating ventures range from an urban farming solution to a new fitness venture Students who participate in the IHI program are provided with mentors business resources and other support In exchange they agree that Humber may track their progress through their first year as a start-up Research in Teaching and Learning Humber has also been active in the area of research in teaching and learning and has received funding for participation in two projects through the Higher Education Quality Council of Ontario (HEQCO) The first piloted a tool for assessing student learning in generic skills using the Collegiate Learning Assessment (CLA) The second is a pilot project to develop a unique tool to measure student progress in genericemployability skills These projects complement our engagement in applied research projects that enhance studentsrsquo employability skills Humber Research continues to actively pursue opportunities to engage in applied research with industry partners who can provide our students with engagement with current industry problems and challenges With the amalgamation of CONII (Colleges Ontario Network for Industry Innovation) and Ontario Centers of Excellence we anticipate expanded opportunities for funded applied research projects that will create meaningful experiences for students and faculty alike

2 Describe how Humber is doing its part to build up the apprenticeship system in Ontario to increase the skilled labour market supply through in-school training expanding the range of apprenticeship programming developing learning pathways for apprentices who wish to ladder into diploma programs and vice versa Provide enrolment data for the apprenticeship programs Humber offers

Humberrsquos Centre for Trades and Technology was developed in 2009 Humber invested over $16 million in the centre including a $7 million contribution from the Ontario Ministry of Training Colleges and Universities The 95000 square foot facility offers students in skilled trade diploma certificate and apprenticeship programs an opportunity to train in state-of-the-art industry-simulated settings under industry mandated standards Through the development of this centre Humber is helping to address the critical shortage of skilled trade workers

Humber provides the required components towards an apprenticeship including technical theory practical job experience and in-school training Students learn valuable skills by using the latest industry software programs and working in fully equipped up-to-date labs and shops At Humber skilled instructors highlight current trends within the industry and strive to duplicate situations that apprentices and skilled tradespeople will see in their everyday working life

Humber offered 12 apprenticeship programs in 2012-13

Apprenticeship Program 2012 Enrolment Arborist Apprenticeship 103 Baker 17 Cook (Cuisine) Apprenticeship 219 Chef Program for Journeyman Cooks - Culinary Co-op Diploma Apprenticeship - Construction Boilermaker Apprenticeship 189 Developmental Service Worker Apprenticeship 458 Electrician Construction and Maintenance Apprenticeship 1080 Industrial Electrician Apprenticeship 7 Institutional Cook 13 Horticultural Technician Apprenticeship 76 Network Cabling Specialist Apprenticeship 15 Plumber Apprenticeship 421 Solar Photovoltaic 20

4 Describe how Humber is ensuring that diploma graduates have access to degree programs and how many graduates access degree education To meet the needs of all postsecondary learners Humber offers several pathways from diploma programs into degree programs The first pathway is for students to transfer from a Humber diploma program to a Humber degree program As an Institute of Technology and Advanced Learning Humber is able to offer up to 15 per cent of its programs at the baccalaureate degree level In 2012-2013 Humber offered 17 degrees (plus nursing) Humber currently represents just over 31 per cent of all college degree enrolment in Ontario In September 2013 this number will increase to 21 degree programs (plus nursing) and over the next five to seven years Humber plans to offer approximately 25 to 30 baccalaureate degrees that resonate with potential students and respond to labour market demands All new degrees have pathways for diploma students from Humber or any other Ontario college In Fall 2012 64 students transferred from Humber Diploma to Humber Degree programs

The second pathway ensuring degree access is from a Humber diploma into a Guelph-Humber degree program The University of Guelph-Humber is located on Humberrsquos North Campus offering over 3850 students seven undergraduate degree programs Students are able to transfer from a number of Humber diploma programs including

bull Business Administration rarr Hon Bachelor of Business Administration bull Early Childhood Education rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Early Childhood bull Social Service Worker rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Family amp Community

Social Services bull Police Foundations rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Justice Studies bull Fitness amp Health Promotion rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Kinesiology bull Media Communications rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Arts in Media Studies bull General Arts amp Science University Transfer certificate rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied

Science in Psychology

Since the launch of Guelph-Humber over 590 students have transferred from Humber Diploma to Guelph-Humber Degree programs

Finally students can build from one credential to another through transfer credit opportunities with more than 50 Canadian and international universities For students wishing to transfer from a diploma to a degree without the requirements several of Humberrsquos programs offer bridging courses over the summer months to ensure a seamless transition

5 Describe how Humberrsquos applied research activity supports its mission as a differentiated institution

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 79

At Humber research activity is directly tied to teaching and learning Applied research helps faculty members to create learning experiences that engage students in activities that take classroom learning into the workplace Applied research projects also help students to be workplace ready by reinforcing employability skills In addition applied research opportunities motivate faculty members to remain current in their areas of expertise and to continue to contribute to new knowledge in their fields

Applied research and innovation activities are evident in four main areas in the classroom including capstone projects through funded projects with industry partners through internally funded projects and at the Innovation Humber Incubator Both industry funded partnerships and internally funded projects offer research assistantships for students This year 58 students were engaged in a total of 12 funded projects and another 21 students were supported in entrepreneurial venture start-ups

Externally Funded Projects Externally funded projects with industry partners included three new CONII projects where students and faculty work with industry partners to respond to industry needs

i The CSMB-TV project engaged students and faculty in the School of Media Studies

and Information Technology (SMSIT) to create a platform for the launch of a web-based television network to serve small and medium-sized businesses and entrepreneurs This initial project has established a partnership that we confidently anticipate will lead to several new projects with SMSIT and other schools at Humber

ii A second project with industry partner Adam Bienenstock Natural Playgrounds

focused on gathering baseline data for future research Students from the Early Childhood Education (ECE) diploma and degree programs learned new research skills in the process of gathering and coding information about childrenrsquos play in the existing playground This summer a new outdoor learning environment will replace the playground to create a living laboratory for students faculty and other researchers interested in learning more about childrenrsquos engagement with the natural environment

iii A third project in collaboration with industry partner Cell 8 Games provided students

from the Game Programmer program with the opportunity to develop a new video game from the ideal phase to a working prototype which Cell 8 Games will commercialize and launch

Humber received its first National Science and Engineering Research Council CollegeUniversity Idea to Innovation (NSERC CU I2I) grant this year A faculty member in the School of Applied Technology will work with partners at Carleton University and industry partner MS Filters on a project to develop a new water treatment technology process for remote and northern communities Workstudy students from the Civil Engineering Technology program will participate in this project

Staff Initiated Research Fund (SIRF)

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 80

Humber provided funding for seven new staff initiated research projects through the SIRF program These projects enable faculty to pursue research interests that will engage student research assistants outside the classroom and which may lead to larger projects with industry partners For example the Natural Playgrounds project began as a SIRF project investigating preschool childrenrsquos responses to the natural world This year faculty and students engaged in projects ranging from creating a videogame to increase student engagement to investigating how consumers understand food nutrition labels Innovation Humber Incubator (IHI) Since its launch in 2012 the Innovation Humber Incubator funded by a grant from Ontario Centers of Excellence has launched a total of 31 ventures ndash 10 in 2011-12 and 21 in 2012-13 Students invited into the incubator in 2012-13 include those who applied for support from the New Venture Seed Fund as well as those who competed in the Friendly Fire Pitch Competition At present participating ventures range from an urban farming solution to a new fitness venture Students who participate in the IHI program are provided with mentors business resources and other support In exchange they agree that Humber may track their progress through their first year as a start-up Research in Teaching and Learning Humber has also been active in the area of research in teaching and learning and has received funding for participation in two projects through the Higher Education Quality Council of Ontario (HEQCO) The first piloted a tool for assessing student learning in generic skills using the Collegiate Learning Assessment (CLA) The second is a pilot project to develop a unique tool to measure student progress in genericemployability skills These projects complement our engagement in applied research projects that enhance studentsrsquo employability skills Humber Research continues to actively pursue opportunities to engage in applied research with industry partners who can provide our students with engagement with current industry problems and challenges With the amalgamation of CONII (Colleges Ontario Network for Industry Innovation) and Ontario Centers of Excellence we anticipate expanded opportunities for funded applied research projects that will create meaningful experiences for students and faculty alike

2 Describe how Humber is doing its part to build up the apprenticeship system in Ontario to increase the skilled labour market supply through in-school training expanding the range of apprenticeship programming developing learning pathways for apprentices who wish to ladder into diploma programs and vice versa Provide enrolment data for the apprenticeship programs Humber offers

Humberrsquos Centre for Trades and Technology was developed in 2009 Humber invested over $16 million in the centre including a $7 million contribution from the Ontario Ministry of Training Colleges and Universities The 95000 square foot facility offers students in skilled trade diploma certificate and apprenticeship programs an opportunity to train in state-of-the-art industry-simulated settings under industry mandated standards Through the development of this centre Humber is helping to address the critical shortage of skilled trade workers

Humber provides the required components towards an apprenticeship including technical theory practical job experience and in-school training Students learn valuable skills by using the latest industry software programs and working in fully equipped up-to-date labs and shops At Humber skilled instructors highlight current trends within the industry and strive to duplicate situations that apprentices and skilled tradespeople will see in their everyday working life

Humber offered 12 apprenticeship programs in 2012-13

4 Describe how Humber is ensuring that diploma graduates have access to degree programs and how many graduates access degree education To meet the needs of all postsecondary learners Humber offers several pathways from diploma programs into degree programs The first pathway is for students to transfer from a Humber diploma program to a Humber degree program As an Institute of Technology and Advanced Learning Humber is able to offer up to 15 per cent of its programs at the baccalaureate degree level In 2012-2013 Humber offered 17 degrees (plus nursing) Humber currently represents just over 31 per cent of all college degree enrolment in Ontario In September 2013 this number will increase to 21 degree programs (plus nursing) and over the next five to seven years Humber plans to offer approximately 25 to 30 baccalaureate degrees that resonate with potential students and respond to labour market demands All new degrees have pathways for diploma students from Humber or any other Ontario college In Fall 2012 64 students transferred from Humber Diploma to Humber Degree programs

The second pathway ensuring degree access is from a Humber diploma into a Guelph-Humber degree program The University of Guelph-Humber is located on Humberrsquos North Campus offering over 3850 students seven undergraduate degree programs Students are able to transfer from a number of Humber diploma programs including

bull Business Administration rarr Hon Bachelor of Business Administration bull Early Childhood Education rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Early Childhood bull Social Service Worker rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Family amp Community

Social Services bull Police Foundations rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Justice Studies bull Fitness amp Health Promotion rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Kinesiology bull Media Communications rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Arts in Media Studies bull General Arts amp Science University Transfer certificate rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied

Since the launch of Guelph-Humber over 590 students have transferred from Humber Diploma to Guelph-Humber Degree programs

Finally students can build from one credential to another through transfer credit opportunities with more than 50 Canadian and international universities For students wishing to transfer from a diploma to a degree without the requirements several of Humberrsquos programs offer bridging courses over the summer months to ensure a seamless transition

5 Describe how Humberrsquos applied research activity supports its mission as a differentiated institution

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 79

At Humber research activity is directly tied to teaching and learning Applied research helps faculty members to create learning experiences that engage students in activities that take classroom learning into the workplace Applied research projects also help students to be workplace ready by reinforcing employability skills In addition applied research opportunities motivate faculty members to remain current in their areas of expertise and to continue to contribute to new knowledge in their fields

Applied research and innovation activities are evident in four main areas in the classroom including capstone projects through funded projects with industry partners through internally funded projects and at the Innovation Humber Incubator Both industry funded partnerships and internally funded projects offer research assistantships for students This year 58 students were engaged in a total of 12 funded projects and another 21 students were supported in entrepreneurial venture start-ups

Externally Funded Projects Externally funded projects with industry partners included three new CONII projects where students and faculty work with industry partners to respond to industry needs

i The CSMB-TV project engaged students and faculty in the School of Media Studies

and Information Technology (SMSIT) to create a platform for the launch of a web-based television network to serve small and medium-sized businesses and entrepreneurs This initial project has established a partnership that we confidently anticipate will lead to several new projects with SMSIT and other schools at Humber

ii A second project with industry partner Adam Bienenstock Natural Playgrounds

focused on gathering baseline data for future research Students from the Early Childhood Education (ECE) diploma and degree programs learned new research skills in the process of gathering and coding information about childrenrsquos play in the existing playground This summer a new outdoor learning environment will replace the playground to create a living laboratory for students faculty and other researchers interested in learning more about childrenrsquos engagement with the natural environment

iii A third project in collaboration with industry partner Cell 8 Games provided students

from the Game Programmer program with the opportunity to develop a new video game from the ideal phase to a working prototype which Cell 8 Games will commercialize and launch

Humber received its first National Science and Engineering Research Council CollegeUniversity Idea to Innovation (NSERC CU I2I) grant this year A faculty member in the School of Applied Technology will work with partners at Carleton University and industry partner MS Filters on a project to develop a new water treatment technology process for remote and northern communities Workstudy students from the Civil Engineering Technology program will participate in this project

Staff Initiated Research Fund (SIRF)

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 80

Humber provided funding for seven new staff initiated research projects through the SIRF program These projects enable faculty to pursue research interests that will engage student research assistants outside the classroom and which may lead to larger projects with industry partners For example the Natural Playgrounds project began as a SIRF project investigating preschool childrenrsquos responses to the natural world This year faculty and students engaged in projects ranging from creating a videogame to increase student engagement to investigating how consumers understand food nutrition labels Innovation Humber Incubator (IHI) Since its launch in 2012 the Innovation Humber Incubator funded by a grant from Ontario Centers of Excellence has launched a total of 31 ventures ndash 10 in 2011-12 and 21 in 2012-13 Students invited into the incubator in 2012-13 include those who applied for support from the New Venture Seed Fund as well as those who competed in the Friendly Fire Pitch Competition At present participating ventures range from an urban farming solution to a new fitness venture Students who participate in the IHI program are provided with mentors business resources and other support In exchange they agree that Humber may track their progress through their first year as a start-up Research in Teaching and Learning Humber has also been active in the area of research in teaching and learning and has received funding for participation in two projects through the Higher Education Quality Council of Ontario (HEQCO) The first piloted a tool for assessing student learning in generic skills using the Collegiate Learning Assessment (CLA) The second is a pilot project to develop a unique tool to measure student progress in genericemployability skills These projects complement our engagement in applied research projects that enhance studentsrsquo employability skills Humber Research continues to actively pursue opportunities to engage in applied research with industry partners who can provide our students with engagement with current industry problems and challenges With the amalgamation of CONII (Colleges Ontario Network for Industry Innovation) and Ontario Centers of Excellence we anticipate expanded opportunities for funded applied research projects that will create meaningful experiences for students and faculty alike

Finally students can build from one credential to another through transfer credit opportunities with more than 50 Canadian and international universities For students wishing to transfer from a diploma to a degree without the requirements several of Humberrsquos programs offer bridging courses over the summer months to ensure a seamless transition

5 Describe how Humberrsquos applied research activity supports its mission as a differentiated institution

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 79

At Humber research activity is directly tied to teaching and learning Applied research helps faculty members to create learning experiences that engage students in activities that take classroom learning into the workplace Applied research projects also help students to be workplace ready by reinforcing employability skills In addition applied research opportunities motivate faculty members to remain current in their areas of expertise and to continue to contribute to new knowledge in their fields

Applied research and innovation activities are evident in four main areas in the classroom including capstone projects through funded projects with industry partners through internally funded projects and at the Innovation Humber Incubator Both industry funded partnerships and internally funded projects offer research assistantships for students This year 58 students were engaged in a total of 12 funded projects and another 21 students were supported in entrepreneurial venture start-ups

Externally Funded Projects Externally funded projects with industry partners included three new CONII projects where students and faculty work with industry partners to respond to industry needs

i The CSMB-TV project engaged students and faculty in the School of Media Studies

and Information Technology (SMSIT) to create a platform for the launch of a web-based television network to serve small and medium-sized businesses and entrepreneurs This initial project has established a partnership that we confidently anticipate will lead to several new projects with SMSIT and other schools at Humber

ii A second project with industry partner Adam Bienenstock Natural Playgrounds

focused on gathering baseline data for future research Students from the Early Childhood Education (ECE) diploma and degree programs learned new research skills in the process of gathering and coding information about childrenrsquos play in the existing playground This summer a new outdoor learning environment will replace the playground to create a living laboratory for students faculty and other researchers interested in learning more about childrenrsquos engagement with the natural environment

iii A third project in collaboration with industry partner Cell 8 Games provided students

from the Game Programmer program with the opportunity to develop a new video game from the ideal phase to a working prototype which Cell 8 Games will commercialize and launch

Humber received its first National Science and Engineering Research Council CollegeUniversity Idea to Innovation (NSERC CU I2I) grant this year A faculty member in the School of Applied Technology will work with partners at Carleton University and industry partner MS Filters on a project to develop a new water treatment technology process for remote and northern communities Workstudy students from the Civil Engineering Technology program will participate in this project

Staff Initiated Research Fund (SIRF)

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 80

Humber provided funding for seven new staff initiated research projects through the SIRF program These projects enable faculty to pursue research interests that will engage student research assistants outside the classroom and which may lead to larger projects with industry partners For example the Natural Playgrounds project began as a SIRF project investigating preschool childrenrsquos responses to the natural world This year faculty and students engaged in projects ranging from creating a videogame to increase student engagement to investigating how consumers understand food nutrition labels Innovation Humber Incubator (IHI) Since its launch in 2012 the Innovation Humber Incubator funded by a grant from Ontario Centers of Excellence has launched a total of 31 ventures ndash 10 in 2011-12 and 21 in 2012-13 Students invited into the incubator in 2012-13 include those who applied for support from the New Venture Seed Fund as well as those who competed in the Friendly Fire Pitch Competition At present participating ventures range from an urban farming solution to a new fitness venture Students who participate in the IHI program are provided with mentors business resources and other support In exchange they agree that Humber may track their progress through their first year as a start-up Research in Teaching and Learning Humber has also been active in the area of research in teaching and learning and has received funding for participation in two projects through the Higher Education Quality Council of Ontario (HEQCO) The first piloted a tool for assessing student learning in generic skills using the Collegiate Learning Assessment (CLA) The second is a pilot project to develop a unique tool to measure student progress in genericemployability skills These projects complement our engagement in applied research projects that enhance studentsrsquo employability skills Humber Research continues to actively pursue opportunities to engage in applied research with industry partners who can provide our students with engagement with current industry problems and challenges With the amalgamation of CONII (Colleges Ontario Network for Industry Innovation) and Ontario Centers of Excellence we anticipate expanded opportunities for funded applied research projects that will create meaningful experiences for students and faculty alike

Since the launch of Guelph-Humber over 590 students have transferred from Humber Diploma to Guelph-Humber Degree programs

Finally students can build from one credential to another through transfer credit opportunities with more than 50 Canadian and international universities For students wishing to transfer from a diploma to a degree without the requirements several of Humberrsquos programs offer bridging courses over the summer months to ensure a seamless transition

5 Describe how Humberrsquos applied research activity supports its mission as a differentiated institution

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 79

At Humber research activity is directly tied to teaching and learning Applied research helps faculty members to create learning experiences that engage students in activities that take classroom learning into the workplace Applied research projects also help students to be workplace ready by reinforcing employability skills In addition applied research opportunities motivate faculty members to remain current in their areas of expertise and to continue to contribute to new knowledge in their fields

Applied research and innovation activities are evident in four main areas in the classroom including capstone projects through funded projects with industry partners through internally funded projects and at the Innovation Humber Incubator Both industry funded partnerships and internally funded projects offer research assistantships for students This year 58 students were engaged in a total of 12 funded projects and another 21 students were supported in entrepreneurial venture start-ups

Externally Funded Projects Externally funded projects with industry partners included three new CONII projects where students and faculty work with industry partners to respond to industry needs

i The CSMB-TV project engaged students and faculty in the School of Media Studies

and Information Technology (SMSIT) to create a platform for the launch of a web-based television network to serve small and medium-sized businesses and entrepreneurs This initial project has established a partnership that we confidently anticipate will lead to several new projects with SMSIT and other schools at Humber

ii A second project with industry partner Adam Bienenstock Natural Playgrounds

focused on gathering baseline data for future research Students from the Early Childhood Education (ECE) diploma and degree programs learned new research skills in the process of gathering and coding information about childrenrsquos play in the existing playground This summer a new outdoor learning environment will replace the playground to create a living laboratory for students faculty and other researchers interested in learning more about childrenrsquos engagement with the natural environment

iii A third project in collaboration with industry partner Cell 8 Games provided students

from the Game Programmer program with the opportunity to develop a new video game from the ideal phase to a working prototype which Cell 8 Games will commercialize and launch

Humber received its first National Science and Engineering Research Council CollegeUniversity Idea to Innovation (NSERC CU I2I) grant this year A faculty member in the School of Applied Technology will work with partners at Carleton University and industry partner MS Filters on a project to develop a new water treatment technology process for remote and northern communities Workstudy students from the Civil Engineering Technology program will participate in this project

Staff Initiated Research Fund (SIRF)

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 80

Humber provided funding for seven new staff initiated research projects through the SIRF program These projects enable faculty to pursue research interests that will engage student research assistants outside the classroom and which may lead to larger projects with industry partners For example the Natural Playgrounds project began as a SIRF project investigating preschool childrenrsquos responses to the natural world This year faculty and students engaged in projects ranging from creating a videogame to increase student engagement to investigating how consumers understand food nutrition labels Innovation Humber Incubator (IHI) Since its launch in 2012 the Innovation Humber Incubator funded by a grant from Ontario Centers of Excellence has launched a total of 31 ventures ndash 10 in 2011-12 and 21 in 2012-13 Students invited into the incubator in 2012-13 include those who applied for support from the New Venture Seed Fund as well as those who competed in the Friendly Fire Pitch Competition At present participating ventures range from an urban farming solution to a new fitness venture Students who participate in the IHI program are provided with mentors business resources and other support In exchange they agree that Humber may track their progress through their first year as a start-up Research in Teaching and Learning Humber has also been active in the area of research in teaching and learning and has received funding for participation in two projects through the Higher Education Quality Council of Ontario (HEQCO) The first piloted a tool for assessing student learning in generic skills using the Collegiate Learning Assessment (CLA) The second is a pilot project to develop a unique tool to measure student progress in genericemployability skills These projects complement our engagement in applied research projects that enhance studentsrsquo employability skills Humber Research continues to actively pursue opportunities to engage in applied research with industry partners who can provide our students with engagement with current industry problems and challenges With the amalgamation of CONII (Colleges Ontario Network for Industry Innovation) and Ontario Centers of Excellence we anticipate expanded opportunities for funded applied research projects that will create meaningful experiences for students and faculty alike

Finally students can build from one credential to another through transfer credit opportunities with more than 50 Canadian and international universities For students wishing to transfer from a diploma to a degree without the requirements several of Humberrsquos programs offer bridging courses over the summer months to ensure a seamless transition

5 Describe how Humberrsquos applied research activity supports its mission as a differentiated institution

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 79

At Humber research activity is directly tied to teaching and learning Applied research helps faculty members to create learning experiences that engage students in activities that take classroom learning into the workplace Applied research projects also help students to be workplace ready by reinforcing employability skills In addition applied research opportunities motivate faculty members to remain current in their areas of expertise and to continue to contribute to new knowledge in their fields

Applied research and innovation activities are evident in four main areas in the classroom including capstone projects through funded projects with industry partners through internally funded projects and at the Innovation Humber Incubator Both industry funded partnerships and internally funded projects offer research assistantships for students This year 58 students were engaged in a total of 12 funded projects and another 21 students were supported in entrepreneurial venture start-ups

Externally Funded Projects Externally funded projects with industry partners included three new CONII projects where students and faculty work with industry partners to respond to industry needs

i The CSMB-TV project engaged students and faculty in the School of Media Studies

and Information Technology (SMSIT) to create a platform for the launch of a web-based television network to serve small and medium-sized businesses and entrepreneurs This initial project has established a partnership that we confidently anticipate will lead to several new projects with SMSIT and other schools at Humber

ii A second project with industry partner Adam Bienenstock Natural Playgrounds

focused on gathering baseline data for future research Students from the Early Childhood Education (ECE) diploma and degree programs learned new research skills in the process of gathering and coding information about childrenrsquos play in the existing playground This summer a new outdoor learning environment will replace the playground to create a living laboratory for students faculty and other researchers interested in learning more about childrenrsquos engagement with the natural environment

iii A third project in collaboration with industry partner Cell 8 Games provided students

from the Game Programmer program with the opportunity to develop a new video game from the ideal phase to a working prototype which Cell 8 Games will commercialize and launch

Humber received its first National Science and Engineering Research Council CollegeUniversity Idea to Innovation (NSERC CU I2I) grant this year A faculty member in the School of Applied Technology will work with partners at Carleton University and industry partner MS Filters on a project to develop a new water treatment technology process for remote and northern communities Workstudy students from the Civil Engineering Technology program will participate in this project

Staff Initiated Research Fund (SIRF)

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 80

Humber provided funding for seven new staff initiated research projects through the SIRF program These projects enable faculty to pursue research interests that will engage student research assistants outside the classroom and which may lead to larger projects with industry partners For example the Natural Playgrounds project began as a SIRF project investigating preschool childrenrsquos responses to the natural world This year faculty and students engaged in projects ranging from creating a videogame to increase student engagement to investigating how consumers understand food nutrition labels Innovation Humber Incubator (IHI) Since its launch in 2012 the Innovation Humber Incubator funded by a grant from Ontario Centers of Excellence has launched a total of 31 ventures ndash 10 in 2011-12 and 21 in 2012-13 Students invited into the incubator in 2012-13 include those who applied for support from the New Venture Seed Fund as well as those who competed in the Friendly Fire Pitch Competition At present participating ventures range from an urban farming solution to a new fitness venture Students who participate in the IHI program are provided with mentors business resources and other support In exchange they agree that Humber may track their progress through their first year as a start-up Research in Teaching and Learning Humber has also been active in the area of research in teaching and learning and has received funding for participation in two projects through the Higher Education Quality Council of Ontario (HEQCO) The first piloted a tool for assessing student learning in generic skills using the Collegiate Learning Assessment (CLA) The second is a pilot project to develop a unique tool to measure student progress in genericemployability skills These projects complement our engagement in applied research projects that enhance studentsrsquo employability skills Humber Research continues to actively pursue opportunities to engage in applied research with industry partners who can provide our students with engagement with current industry problems and challenges With the amalgamation of CONII (Colleges Ontario Network for Industry Innovation) and Ontario Centers of Excellence we anticipate expanded opportunities for funded applied research projects that will create meaningful experiences for students and faculty alike

Applied research and innovation activities are evident in four main areas in the classroom including capstone projects through funded projects with industry partners through internally funded projects and at the Innovation Humber Incubator Both industry funded partnerships and internally funded projects offer research assistantships for students This year 58 students were engaged in a total of 12 funded projects and another 21 students were supported in entrepreneurial venture start-ups

Externally Funded Projects Externally funded projects with industry partners included three new CONII projects where students and faculty work with industry partners to respond to industry needs

i The CSMB-TV project engaged students and faculty in the School of Media Studies

and Information Technology (SMSIT) to create a platform for the launch of a web-based television network to serve small and medium-sized businesses and entrepreneurs This initial project has established a partnership that we confidently anticipate will lead to several new projects with SMSIT and other schools at Humber

ii A second project with industry partner Adam Bienenstock Natural Playgrounds

focused on gathering baseline data for future research Students from the Early Childhood Education (ECE) diploma and degree programs learned new research skills in the process of gathering and coding information about childrenrsquos play in the existing playground This summer a new outdoor learning environment will replace the playground to create a living laboratory for students faculty and other researchers interested in learning more about childrenrsquos engagement with the natural environment

4 Describe how Humber is ensuring that diploma graduates have access to degree programs and how many graduates access degree education To meet the needs of all postsecondary learners Humber offers several pathways from diploma programs into degree programs The first pathway is for students to transfer from a Humber diploma program to a Humber degree program As an Institute of Technology and Advanced Learning Humber is able to offer up to 15 per cent of its programs at the baccalaureate degree level In 2012-2013 Humber offered 17 degrees (plus nursing) Humber currently represents just over 31 per cent of all college degree enrolment in Ontario In September 2013 this number will increase to 21 degree programs (plus nursing) and over the next five to seven years Humber plans to offer approximately 25 to 30 baccalaureate degrees that resonate with potential students and respond to labour market demands All new degrees have pathways for diploma students from Humber or any other Ontario college In Fall 2012 64 students transferred from Humber Diploma to Humber Degree programs

The second pathway ensuring degree access is from a Humber diploma into a Guelph-Humber degree program The University of Guelph-Humber is located on Humberrsquos North Campus offering over 3850 students seven undergraduate degree programs Students are able to transfer from a number of Humber diploma programs including

bull Business Administration rarr Hon Bachelor of Business Administration bull Early Childhood Education rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Early Childhood bull Social Service Worker rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Family amp Community

Social Services bull Police Foundations rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Justice Studies bull Fitness amp Health Promotion rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Kinesiology bull Media Communications rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Arts in Media Studies bull General Arts amp Science University Transfer certificate rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied

Since the launch of Guelph-Humber over 590 students have transferred from Humber Diploma to Guelph-Humber Degree programs

Finally students can build from one credential to another through transfer credit opportunities with more than 50 Canadian and international universities For students wishing to transfer from a diploma to a degree without the requirements several of Humberrsquos programs offer bridging courses over the summer months to ensure a seamless transition

5 Describe how Humberrsquos applied research activity supports its mission as a differentiated institution

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 79

At Humber research activity is directly tied to teaching and learning Applied research helps faculty members to create learning experiences that engage students in activities that take classroom learning into the workplace Applied research projects also help students to be workplace ready by reinforcing employability skills In addition applied research opportunities motivate faculty members to remain current in their areas of expertise and to continue to contribute to new knowledge in their fields

Applied research and innovation activities are evident in four main areas in the classroom including capstone projects through funded projects with industry partners through internally funded projects and at the Innovation Humber Incubator Both industry funded partnerships and internally funded projects offer research assistantships for students This year 58 students were engaged in a total of 12 funded projects and another 21 students were supported in entrepreneurial venture start-ups

Externally Funded Projects Externally funded projects with industry partners included three new CONII projects where students and faculty work with industry partners to respond to industry needs

i The CSMB-TV project engaged students and faculty in the School of Media Studies

and Information Technology (SMSIT) to create a platform for the launch of a web-based television network to serve small and medium-sized businesses and entrepreneurs This initial project has established a partnership that we confidently anticipate will lead to several new projects with SMSIT and other schools at Humber

ii A second project with industry partner Adam Bienenstock Natural Playgrounds

focused on gathering baseline data for future research Students from the Early Childhood Education (ECE) diploma and degree programs learned new research skills in the process of gathering and coding information about childrenrsquos play in the existing playground This summer a new outdoor learning environment will replace the playground to create a living laboratory for students faculty and other researchers interested in learning more about childrenrsquos engagement with the natural environment

iii A third project in collaboration with industry partner Cell 8 Games provided students

from the Game Programmer program with the opportunity to develop a new video game from the ideal phase to a working prototype which Cell 8 Games will commercialize and launch

Humber received its first National Science and Engineering Research Council CollegeUniversity Idea to Innovation (NSERC CU I2I) grant this year A faculty member in the School of Applied Technology will work with partners at Carleton University and industry partner MS Filters on a project to develop a new water treatment technology process for remote and northern communities Workstudy students from the Civil Engineering Technology program will participate in this project

Staff Initiated Research Fund (SIRF)

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 80

Humber provided funding for seven new staff initiated research projects through the SIRF program These projects enable faculty to pursue research interests that will engage student research assistants outside the classroom and which may lead to larger projects with industry partners For example the Natural Playgrounds project began as a SIRF project investigating preschool childrenrsquos responses to the natural world This year faculty and students engaged in projects ranging from creating a videogame to increase student engagement to investigating how consumers understand food nutrition labels Innovation Humber Incubator (IHI) Since its launch in 2012 the Innovation Humber Incubator funded by a grant from Ontario Centers of Excellence has launched a total of 31 ventures ndash 10 in 2011-12 and 21 in 2012-13 Students invited into the incubator in 2012-13 include those who applied for support from the New Venture Seed Fund as well as those who competed in the Friendly Fire Pitch Competition At present participating ventures range from an urban farming solution to a new fitness venture Students who participate in the IHI program are provided with mentors business resources and other support In exchange they agree that Humber may track their progress through their first year as a start-up Research in Teaching and Learning Humber has also been active in the area of research in teaching and learning and has received funding for participation in two projects through the Higher Education Quality Council of Ontario (HEQCO) The first piloted a tool for assessing student learning in generic skills using the Collegiate Learning Assessment (CLA) The second is a pilot project to develop a unique tool to measure student progress in genericemployability skills These projects complement our engagement in applied research projects that enhance studentsrsquo employability skills Humber Research continues to actively pursue opportunities to engage in applied research with industry partners who can provide our students with engagement with current industry problems and challenges With the amalgamation of CONII (Colleges Ontario Network for Industry Innovation) and Ontario Centers of Excellence we anticipate expanded opportunities for funded applied research projects that will create meaningful experiences for students and faculty alike

Since the launch of Guelph-Humber over 590 students have transferred from Humber Diploma to Guelph-Humber Degree programs

Finally students can build from one credential to another through transfer credit opportunities with more than 50 Canadian and international universities For students wishing to transfer from a diploma to a degree without the requirements several of Humberrsquos programs offer bridging courses over the summer months to ensure a seamless transition

5 Describe how Humberrsquos applied research activity supports its mission as a differentiated institution

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 79

At Humber research activity is directly tied to teaching and learning Applied research helps faculty members to create learning experiences that engage students in activities that take classroom learning into the workplace Applied research projects also help students to be workplace ready by reinforcing employability skills In addition applied research opportunities motivate faculty members to remain current in their areas of expertise and to continue to contribute to new knowledge in their fields

Applied research and innovation activities are evident in four main areas in the classroom including capstone projects through funded projects with industry partners through internally funded projects and at the Innovation Humber Incubator Both industry funded partnerships and internally funded projects offer research assistantships for students This year 58 students were engaged in a total of 12 funded projects and another 21 students were supported in entrepreneurial venture start-ups

Externally Funded Projects Externally funded projects with industry partners included three new CONII projects where students and faculty work with industry partners to respond to industry needs

i The CSMB-TV project engaged students and faculty in the School of Media Studies

and Information Technology (SMSIT) to create a platform for the launch of a web-based television network to serve small and medium-sized businesses and entrepreneurs This initial project has established a partnership that we confidently anticipate will lead to several new projects with SMSIT and other schools at Humber

ii A second project with industry partner Adam Bienenstock Natural Playgrounds

focused on gathering baseline data for future research Students from the Early Childhood Education (ECE) diploma and degree programs learned new research skills in the process of gathering and coding information about childrenrsquos play in the existing playground This summer a new outdoor learning environment will replace the playground to create a living laboratory for students faculty and other researchers interested in learning more about childrenrsquos engagement with the natural environment

iii A third project in collaboration with industry partner Cell 8 Games provided students

from the Game Programmer program with the opportunity to develop a new video game from the ideal phase to a working prototype which Cell 8 Games will commercialize and launch

Humber received its first National Science and Engineering Research Council CollegeUniversity Idea to Innovation (NSERC CU I2I) grant this year A faculty member in the School of Applied Technology will work with partners at Carleton University and industry partner MS Filters on a project to develop a new water treatment technology process for remote and northern communities Workstudy students from the Civil Engineering Technology program will participate in this project

Staff Initiated Research Fund (SIRF)

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 80

Humber provided funding for seven new staff initiated research projects through the SIRF program These projects enable faculty to pursue research interests that will engage student research assistants outside the classroom and which may lead to larger projects with industry partners For example the Natural Playgrounds project began as a SIRF project investigating preschool childrenrsquos responses to the natural world This year faculty and students engaged in projects ranging from creating a videogame to increase student engagement to investigating how consumers understand food nutrition labels Innovation Humber Incubator (IHI) Since its launch in 2012 the Innovation Humber Incubator funded by a grant from Ontario Centers of Excellence has launched a total of 31 ventures ndash 10 in 2011-12 and 21 in 2012-13 Students invited into the incubator in 2012-13 include those who applied for support from the New Venture Seed Fund as well as those who competed in the Friendly Fire Pitch Competition At present participating ventures range from an urban farming solution to a new fitness venture Students who participate in the IHI program are provided with mentors business resources and other support In exchange they agree that Humber may track their progress through their first year as a start-up Research in Teaching and Learning Humber has also been active in the area of research in teaching and learning and has received funding for participation in two projects through the Higher Education Quality Council of Ontario (HEQCO) The first piloted a tool for assessing student learning in generic skills using the Collegiate Learning Assessment (CLA) The second is a pilot project to develop a unique tool to measure student progress in genericemployability skills These projects complement our engagement in applied research projects that enhance studentsrsquo employability skills Humber Research continues to actively pursue opportunities to engage in applied research with industry partners who can provide our students with engagement with current industry problems and challenges With the amalgamation of CONII (Colleges Ontario Network for Industry Innovation) and Ontario Centers of Excellence we anticipate expanded opportunities for funded applied research projects that will create meaningful experiences for students and faculty alike

4 Describe how Humber is ensuring that diploma graduates have access to degree programs and how many graduates access degree education To meet the needs of all postsecondary learners Humber offers several pathways from diploma programs into degree programs The first pathway is for students to transfer from a Humber diploma program to a Humber degree program As an Institute of Technology and Advanced Learning Humber is able to offer up to 15 per cent of its programs at the baccalaureate degree level In 2012-2013 Humber offered 17 degrees (plus nursing) Humber currently represents just over 31 per cent of all college degree enrolment in Ontario In September 2013 this number will increase to 21 degree programs (plus nursing) and over the next five to seven years Humber plans to offer approximately 25 to 30 baccalaureate degrees that resonate with potential students and respond to labour market demands All new degrees have pathways for diploma students from Humber or any other Ontario college In Fall 2012 64 students transferred from Humber Diploma to Humber Degree programs

The second pathway ensuring degree access is from a Humber diploma into a Guelph-Humber degree program The University of Guelph-Humber is located on Humberrsquos North Campus offering over 3850 students seven undergraduate degree programs Students are able to transfer from a number of Humber diploma programs including

bull Business Administration rarr Hon Bachelor of Business Administration bull Early Childhood Education rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Early Childhood bull Social Service Worker rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Family amp Community

Social Services bull Police Foundations rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Justice Studies bull Fitness amp Health Promotion rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Science in Kinesiology bull Media Communications rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied Arts in Media Studies bull General Arts amp Science University Transfer certificate rarr Hon Bachelor of Applied

Science in Psychology

Since the launch of Guelph-Humber over 590 students have transferred from Humber Diploma to Guelph-Humber Degree programs

Finally students can build from one credential to another through transfer credit opportunities with more than 50 Canadian and international universities For students wishing to transfer from a diploma to a degree without the requirements several of Humberrsquos programs offer bridging courses over the summer months to ensure a seamless transition

5 Describe how Humberrsquos applied research activity supports its mission as a differentiated institution

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 79

At Humber research activity is directly tied to teaching and learning Applied research helps faculty members to create learning experiences that engage students in activities that take classroom learning into the workplace Applied research projects also help students to be workplace ready by reinforcing employability skills In addition applied research opportunities motivate faculty members to remain current in their areas of expertise and to continue to contribute to new knowledge in their fields

Applied research and innovation activities are evident in four main areas in the classroom including capstone projects through funded projects with industry partners through internally funded projects and at the Innovation Humber Incubator Both industry funded partnerships and internally funded projects offer research assistantships for students This year 58 students were engaged in a total of 12 funded projects and another 21 students were supported in entrepreneurial venture start-ups

Externally Funded Projects Externally funded projects with industry partners included three new CONII projects where students and faculty work with industry partners to respond to industry needs

i The CSMB-TV project engaged students and faculty in the School of Media Studies

and Information Technology (SMSIT) to create a platform for the launch of a web-based television network to serve small and medium-sized businesses and entrepreneurs This initial project has established a partnership that we confidently anticipate will lead to several new projects with SMSIT and other schools at Humber

ii A second project with industry partner Adam Bienenstock Natural Playgrounds

focused on gathering baseline data for future research Students from the Early Childhood Education (ECE) diploma and degree programs learned new research skills in the process of gathering and coding information about childrenrsquos play in the existing playground This summer a new outdoor learning environment will replace the playground to create a living laboratory for students faculty and other researchers interested in learning more about childrenrsquos engagement with the natural environment

iii A third project in collaboration with industry partner Cell 8 Games provided students

from the Game Programmer program with the opportunity to develop a new video game from the ideal phase to a working prototype which Cell 8 Games will commercialize and launch

Humber received its first National Science and Engineering Research Council CollegeUniversity Idea to Innovation (NSERC CU I2I) grant this year A faculty member in the School of Applied Technology will work with partners at Carleton University and industry partner MS Filters on a project to develop a new water treatment technology process for remote and northern communities Workstudy students from the Civil Engineering Technology program will participate in this project

At Humber research activity is directly tied to teaching and learning Applied research helps faculty members to create learning experiences that engage students in activities that take classroom learning into the workplace Applied research projects also help students to be workplace ready by reinforcing employability skills In addition applied research opportunities motivate faculty members to remain current in their areas of expertise and to continue to contribute to new knowledge in their fields

Applied research and innovation activities are evident in four main areas in the classroom including capstone projects through funded projects with industry partners through internally funded projects and at the Innovation Humber Incubator Both industry funded partnerships and internally funded projects offer research assistantships for students This year 58 students were engaged in a total of 12 funded projects and another 21 students were supported in entrepreneurial venture start-ups

Externally Funded Projects Externally funded projects with industry partners included three new CONII projects where students and faculty work with industry partners to respond to industry needs

i The CSMB-TV project engaged students and faculty in the School of Media Studies

and Information Technology (SMSIT) to create a platform for the launch of a web-based television network to serve small and medium-sized businesses and entrepreneurs This initial project has established a partnership that we confidently anticipate will lead to several new projects with SMSIT and other schools at Humber

ii A second project with industry partner Adam Bienenstock Natural Playgrounds

focused on gathering baseline data for future research Students from the Early Childhood Education (ECE) diploma and degree programs learned new research skills in the process of gathering and coding information about childrenrsquos play in the existing playground This summer a new outdoor learning environment will replace the playground to create a living laboratory for students faculty and other researchers interested in learning more about childrenrsquos engagement with the natural environment

iii A third project in collaboration with industry partner Cell 8 Games provided students

from the Game Programmer program with the opportunity to develop a new video game from the ideal phase to a working prototype which Cell 8 Games will commercialize and launch

Humber received its first National Science and Engineering Research Council CollegeUniversity Idea to Innovation (NSERC CU I2I) grant this year A faculty member in the School of Applied Technology will work with partners at Carleton University and industry partner MS Filters on a project to develop a new water treatment technology process for remote and northern communities Workstudy students from the Civil Engineering Technology program will participate in this project

Staff Initiated Research Fund (SIRF)

APPROVED - Annual Report Appendices 2012-2013 Humber College Institute of Technology amp Advanced Learning 80

Humber provided funding for seven new staff initiated research projects through the SIRF program These projects enable faculty to pursue research interests that will engage student research assistants outside the classroom and which may lead to larger projects with industry partners For example the Natural Playgrounds project began as a SIRF project investigating preschool childrenrsquos responses to the natural world This year faculty and students engaged in projects ranging from creating a videogame to increase student engagement to investigating how consumers understand food nutrition labels Innovation Humber Incubator (IHI) Since its launch in 2012 the Innovation Humber Incubator funded by a grant from Ontario Centers of Excellence has launched a total of 31 ventures ndash 10 in 2011-12 and 21 in 2012-13 Students invited into the incubator in 2012-13 include those who applied for support from the New Venture Seed Fund as well as those who competed in the Friendly Fire Pitch Competition At present participating ventures range from an urban farming solution to a new fitness venture Students who participate in the IHI program are provided with mentors business resources and other support In exchange they agree that Humber may track their progress through their first year as a start-up Research in Teaching and Learning Humber has also been active in the area of research in teaching and learning and has received funding for participation in two projects through the Higher Education Quality Council of Ontario (HEQCO) The first piloted a tool for assessing student learning in generic skills using the Collegiate Learning Assessment (CLA) The second is a pilot project to develop a unique tool to measure student progress in genericemployability skills These projects complement our engagement in applied research projects that enhance studentsrsquo employability skills Humber Research continues to actively pursue opportunities to engage in applied research with industry partners who can provide our students with engagement with current industry problems and challenges With the amalgamation of CONII (Colleges Ontario Network for Industry Innovation) and Ontario Centers of Excellence we anticipate expanded opportunities for funded applied research projects that will create meaningful experiences for students and faculty alike
