YEAR THREE

A. What Have We Accomplished?

Complete Appendices A (Budget History), B1 and B2 (CLO's), C (PLO's), and D (A few questions) prior to writing your narrative. You should also review your most recent success, equity, course sequence, and enrollment data at http://www.chabotcollege.edu/ProgramReview/Data2013.cfm.

In year one, you established goals and action plans for program improvement. This section asks you to reflect on the progress you have made toward those goals. This analysis will be used by the PRBC and Budget Committee to assess progress toward achievement of our Strategic Plan and to inform future budget decisions. It will also be used by the SLOAC and Basic Skills committees as input to their priority-setting process. In your narrative of two or less pages, address the following questions:

What program improvement goals did you establish?1. Establish regularly scheduled meetings with all MCOM faculty to determine actions

that may be taken to implement the needed changes. Not achieved in part because the radio advisor receives no FTEF allocation

for advising/running the FCC licensed and regulated radio station and therefore must teach more classes leaving little time for meetings.

2. Increase awareness and enrollment in Mass Communications broadcasting courses. Achieved.

3. Create more linkages with industry professionals. Achieved. Have had leading Bay Area on-air radio personalities speaking to

classes and involved with our radio station.4. Contact members of Bay Area media companies to workout internship

agreements. Partially completed yet still in progress. Have relationships with radio

stations and are getting students internships, but we do not have any formal agreements codified.

5. Continue to promote and conduct activities on high school campuses. Achieved.

6. Continue to put on campus events that bring the community to the campus. Achieved.

7. Update and revise the underwriting packet for the radio station. Achieved.

8. Create a fundraising campaign and work with the Chabot Foundation to create an annual fundraising event. Not achieved because the Chabot Foundation closed.

http://www.chabotcollege.edu/ProgramReview/Data2013.cfm


Did you achieve the goals you established for the three years? Please see above.

Specifically describe your progress on goals you set for Student learning:

o We continue to successfully equip our students with needed information and training to achieve the Student Learning Outcome goals we set for our classes and we make changes based on the results of our assessments.

Program learning:o We have established Program Learning Outcome goals but have not assessed

them yet. The PLOs will be assessed this semester and we look forward to detailing the anticipated success with our PLOs in our next program review report.

Strategic Plan achievement: o Although we would like to be able to encompass the college Strategic Plan in

our departmental planning, with all of the other demands on our time, we are currently focused primarily on our course and program goals.

What best practices have you developed? We have not developed a specific set of “best practices” but continue to reach out

to our students as individuals and teach them.

Are these best practices replicable in other disciplines or areas? Not applicable.

What were your greatest challenges? The biggest challenges were sustaining the program without adequate support:

budgetary, staffing, equipment, and institutional. The full-time Classified Radio Station position needs to be brought back or a fill-

time Instructional Assistant position created. MCOM classes involve hands-on training requiring use of the radio labs. To keep the labs open for student access a full-time position and lab support is needed. Courses associated with the radio station will be in jeopardy of being cancelled without this support that is vital to the survival of the MCOM program and the three AA degrees we offer.

There is a lack of parity and equity between the compensation for the newspaper advisor and the radio advisor. Although the newspaper advisor receives compensation, the radio advisor does not. We need to find a way to provide some form of compensation to the radio faculty advisor. What was referred to as release or reassigned time for the radio advisor was eliminated. Since that time the enrollment has dramatically increased in radio, but not newspaper. The radio station operates 24 hours a day 365 days a year and the newspaper went from a weekly edition to only being published two times a month. The radio station has a Federal Communications Commission (FCC) license with regulations that must be followed in order prevent being fined and in order for the license to be renewed. The newspaper has no such responsibility or governmental oversight. There are more studios and equipment in the radio station and over 100 students the radio advisor must oversee as opposed to about 25 students involved in publishing the newspaper. All of this impedes the MCOM radio program from reaching its potential and achieving many of our goals.

It is becoming increasing difficult to achieve our goals with the dilapidated equipment and facilities that are in need of repair or replacement.

Were there institutional barriers to success? Yes, there were institutional barriers to success such as inadequate support:

budgetary, staffing, equipment and facilities.

Cite relevant data in your narrative (e.g., efficiency, persistence, success, FT/PT faculty ratios, CLO/PLO assessment results, external accreditation demands, etc.).

B. What’s Next?

This section may serve as the foundation for your next Program Review cycle, and will inform the development of future strategic initiatives for the college. In your narrative of one page or less, address the following questions. Please complete Appendices E (New Initiatives) and F1-8 (Resources Requested) to further detail your narrative and to request resources.

What goals do you have for future program improvement? Based upon our student achievement results, we are going to concentrate our

efforts on sustaining what we have successfully been doing in our courses and the program.

What ideas do you have to achieve those goals? We will continue to put in the time and energy into the program to achieve our

goals.

What must change about the institution to enable you to make greater progress in improving student learning and overall student success?

More budgetary resources need to be allocated and facility improvements made.

What recommendations do you have to improve the Program Review process? Stabilize the Program Review process and make fewer and less frequent changes.

Appendix D: A Few Questions

Please answer the following questions with "yes" or "no". For any questions answered "no", please provide an explanation. No explanation is required for "yes" answers :-)

1. Have all of your course outlines been updated within the past five years? YES, all the courses required for the MCOM Radio and TV Broadcasting AA degree are up

to date.

2. Have all of your courses been offered within the past five years? If no, why should those courses remain in our college catalog? YES.

3. Do all of your courses have the required number of CLOs completed, with corresponding rubrics? If no, identify the CLO work you still need to complete, and your timeline for completing that work this semester. YES.

4. Have you assessed all of your courses and completed "closing the loop" forms for all of your courses within the past three years? If no, identify which courses still require this work, and your timeline for completing that work this semester. Yes.

5. Have you developed and assessed PLOs for all of your programs? If no, identify programs which still require this work, and your timeline to complete that work this semester. Yes, PLOs for radio have been developed but not assessed. PLOs will be assessed by the

end of this semester.

6. If you have course sequences, is success in the first course a good predictor of success in the subsequent course(s)? Yes, there is a positive correlation between the success of students in a prerequisite

course and the course the prerequisite was for.

7. Does successful completion of College-level Math and/or English correlate positively with success in your courses? If not, explain why you think this may be. Math skills are not necessary for MCOM courses, so student success in college-level

math is not a predictor of success in our courses. It would stand to reason that students who successfully complete college-level English would excel in mass communication courses but we have not studied the data on it.

2. Rationale for your proposal.

There was a full-time Classified Radio Station position for decades. When the person in that position left for a job in commercial radio, filling the vacant position was put on hold. It ended up being indefinitely vacant. The majority of MCOM classes involve hands-on experience and training requiring the use of the radio labs. In order to keep the labs open for student access and use, a full-time student assistant and lab support is needed. Our Instructional Assistant position was eliminated by the division dean Reinstatement of this much needed support is vital to the survival of the MCOM program and the three AA degrees we offer. The only reason the radio station has remained available since this loss is because Instructional Assistants, have generously volunteered their time and services. When the time comes that we no longer have students donating their unpaid time, the courses associated with the radio station will be in jeopardy of being cancelled and possibly eliminated thus endangering the sustained viability of our Broadcasting AA degree.

3. Statements about the alignment with the strategic plan and program review are required. Indicate here any information from advisory committees or outside accreditation reviews that is pertinent to the proposal.

The above request aligns with item 6. c. of the 2012-2015 Strategic Plan in that there is a programmatic bottleneck. Students are not able to gain access to the radio station to do their studio labs because of the lack of staffing. This position would be the solution to this problem and increase the number of students that achieve their educational goal within a reasonable time by providing more access and support

Appendix F3: FTEF Requests

Audience: Administrators, CEMC, PRBCPurpose: To recommend changes in FTEF allocations for subsequent academic year and guide Deans and CEMC in the allocation of FTEF to disciplines. For more information, see Article 29 (CEMC) of the Faculty Contract.Instructions: In the area below, please list your requested changes in course offerings (and corresponding request in FTEF) and provide your rationale for these changes. Be sure to analyze enrollment trends and other relevant data athttp://www.chabotcollege.edu/ProgramReview/Data2013.cfm.

Request:An increase of .270 FTEF per semester.

Rationale:We need to bring parity and equity to the radio advisor. We are unable to adequately serve our students because they are being denied adequate access to the radio station studios and inadequate training time. The allocation of .270 FTEF will permit the radio advisor to spend more time at the radio station allowing greater access and instruction, which helps our students reach their academic and degree attainment goals.

There is a lack of parity and equity between the compensation for the newspaper advisor and the radio advisor. Although the newspaper advisor receives compensation, the radio advisor does not. We need to find a way to provide some form of compensation to the radio faculty advisor who is burned out. What was referred to as release or reassigned time for the radio advisor was eliminated. Since that time the enrollment has dramatically increased in radio, but not newspaper. The radio station operates 24 hours a day 365 days a year and the newspaper went from a weekly edition to only being published two times a month.

The radio station has a Federal Communications Commission (FCC) license with regulations that must be followed in order prevent being fined and in order for the license to be renewed. The newspaper has no such responsibility or governmental oversight. There are more studios and equipment in the radio station and over 100 students the radio advisor must oversee as opposed to about 25 students involved in publishing the newspaper. All of this impedes the MCOM radio program from reaching its potential and achieving many of our goals.

Appendix F8: Facilities Requests

Audience: Facilities Committee, AdministratorsPurpose: To be read and responded to by Facilities Committee.Background: Following the completion of the 2012 Chabot College Facility Master Plan, the Facilities Committee (FC) has begun the task of re-prioritizing Measure B Bond budgets to better align with current needs. The FC has identified approximately $18M in budgets to be used to meet capital improvement needs on the Chabot College campus. Discussion in the FC includes holding some funds for a year or two to be used as match if and when the State again funds capital projects, and to fund smaller projects that will directly assist our strategic goal. The FC has determined that although some of the college's greatest needs involving new facilities cannot be met with this limited amount of funding, there are many smaller pressing needs that could be addressed. The kinds of projects that can be legally funded with bond dollars include the "repairing, constructing, acquiring, equipping of classrooms, labs, sites and facilities."

What educational programs or institutional purposes does this equipment support?

These projects support the Mass Communications Department and are needed for the four AA degrees we offer. These projects will allow for greater student access to the courses needed for the MCOM degrees and General Education requirements. The lack of space reduces the number of students we can serve and creates a bottleneck for students trying to complete the program, earn their degree and transfer to four year institutions.

Briefly describe how your request relates specifically to meeting the Strategic Plan Goal and to enhancing student learning?

As stated above, these projects will increase class and lab capacity and accessibility to required AA and GE courses and helps our students achieve their educational goals in a timely manner with a clear pathway to achieving their MCOM AA degree goals by providing the needed lab facilities and space. “Increase the number of students that achieve their educational goal within a reasonable time by clarifying pathways and providing more information and support.”
