8 chargeable computer carts with 25 lap tops each for designated Kaplan & Harriman classrooms



Initiative Title8 chargeable computer carts with 25 lap tops each for designated Kaplan & Harriman classrooms
Submitted in Previous Year(s)2018
Critical Information, Notes, Justification, Rationale

In order to fully maximize student success, students in the co-requisite ENG 101 course offerings will need to have availability in the classroom for computers to access the Internet and  to provide students with immediate feedback on writing activities. This is an essential element of ALP course delivery.

Consequences of this initiative not being funded

Students will continue to work on writing and revision in outdated ways and be unable to take advantage of current research and review sources available to them.  Our progress toward implementing Integrated Reading & Writing and an ALP model of Freshman English 101 will be compromised. Currently, the facilities available for English department use (the Tech Writing Lab and Library) cannot continue to meet the ever-increasing technological needs of students in these areas nor the increased demand which will result in the transition to co-requisite developmental education

Department GoalsExpand the availability and use of new technology for student learning and support, Continue to plan and implement course delivery to accelerate student progress toward academic goals.
