2 Portable Multi-Laptop Computer Carts



Initiative Title2 Portable Multi-Laptop Computer Carts
Submitted in Previous Year(s)No
Critical Information, Notes, Justification, RationaleCurrently have 9 computers for 270 students. 2 portable lap top cart with 16-20 computers and printer would allow faculty to integrate computerized instruction and testing into the nursing curriculum. Our current lecture class size is 32 students and our lab size is 16 students. Two carts would accommodate a lecture class and one cart for the lab classes Since this would be a mobile unit it would also be available for faculty in other departments. We currently lack the space for a 32 computer station dedicated classroom and a mobile unit would address this problem.
Consequences of this initiative not being fundedStudents currently have to stand on line to access nursing software. The nursing department will be unable to move forward with plans to integrate computerized adaptive testing into the curriculum. Upon graduation, nursing students must pass a computerized adaptive examination for licensure. Computerized testing in the program would prepare students for this experience.
