Dept. of Computing and Technology (CaT) School of Science and Technology A.A.S. in Electronic Engineering Technology (EET) CIP Code: 150303 Program Code: 540 Program Quality Improvement Report 2009-2010 1
Program actions since last assessment 1. Collect data for assessment in labs. Several lab exercises were created to assess student learning using lab equipment such as the oscilloscope, multimeter, and troubleshooting skills. Hold mock interviews to assess student interview and presentation skills. Mock interviews were held last Spring semester with the Industrial Advisory Committee. Support the Electronics Club activities to improve student retention. Several activities were held such as tours to a Wind Farm, KSWO transmitter tower, and PSO s power substation. 2. 3. 2

Three year trend is slightly increasing. # samples 7 12 16 14 Fall 2009 12 Program Quality Improvement Report 2008-2009
Analysis of Assessment Data SLO 1: The three year trend shows students are performing about the same or slightly above previous years. EET 2023 Digital Electronics class was changed from 8 week class to 16 week class in Spring 2009 due to low performance from previous year. Change was due to action item. 13 Program Quality Improvement Report 2009-2010
