| Initiative Title | Internet Computer Station with Printer In Newburgh BATCAVERN |
|---|
| Submitted in Previous Year(s) | 2016 |
|---|
| Critical Information, Notes, Justification, Rationale | Equipping/Installing a computer station with internet access and printer would markedly enhance student learning/tutoring sessions due to convenient access to Blackboard and other web-based resources. Currently, such access while available in the Newburgh library, requires students/tutors to relocate venues on a continuing basis causing interruption and confusion. Student in our Middletown BATCAVERN already have access to such venue-specific stations. |
|---|
| Consequences of this initiative not being funded | Students taking 'Introduction to Biology' (BIO 110), or A & P I, II (BIO 111,112) will not have access to instructor generated materials on "Blackboard" during study and/or tutoring sessions. This could have critical impact on student success in the courses and their ability to pursue further training in the health professions. |
