PSLO Assessment Report Summary

What we looked at:

The Building technology Program assessment focused on PSLOs 1to 12. Listed below are the results for each of the following PSLOs.

What we found:

• 8 out of 8 or 100% of the students got 'C' or better and were able to interpret electrical circuits according to electrical industry regulations base on performance worksheet on VEM 212 (National Electrical Code).
• 13 out of 14 or 93% of the students got 'C' or better and were able to perform basic troubleshooting on basic motors base on performance checklist on VEE 266 (Rotating Machinery).
• 9 out of 10 or 90% of the students got 'C' or better and were able to install and analyze basic motor control circuits on VEM 240 (Industrial Wiring).

What we are planning to work on:

Modify Building Technology program to the current and most needed competencies that demand by the local industry including renewable energy course. Combine SLOs of discrete devices into one course and involve students in more hands-on activities to enhance their learned skills.

Recommendations for students:

Students must have a grade of "C" or better in Math and English courses to help students become proficient to meet the course work in Building technology technical courses. Likewise should also satisfactorily meet the prerequisite of each course in the program to assure program completion in two years.
