Initiative Title | 55" Television with Blu-Ray/DVD player equipped with blue tooth technology |
Submitted in Previous Year(s) | No |
Critical Information, Notes, Justification, Rationale | The PTA Program currently has an outdated television (greater than 10 years old) which is locked to a large wheeled cart and complete with a VHS machine. The purchase of a television with updated options will enhance the educational experience for the students. Blue tooth technology will allow for connection to I-pad devices and promote interaction between student to instructor and student to student. A Blu-Ray/DVD player will allow for advancement and updating of audiovisual capabilities within the classroom. This television will be wall mounted thus reducing the storage space which is required for the current outdated devices. |
Consequences of this initiative not being funded | 1. Currently the department is not able to replace any of the broken VHS tapes as they are no longer available. 2. Biotech 103 does not have the capability to use any devices which are blue tooth compatible. 3. Reduction to quality of student instructional methods. |
Department Goals | Obtain funding and purchase additional equipment to maintain both Accreditation Standards and local industry standards – specifically, specifically, Interactive Television with DVD, replacement US/Electrical stimulation unit for the PTA Laboratory; BT 103 |
