PROGRAM REVIEW

Status Summary- Plan of Action-Post Validation

During the academic year, 2005-2006, Brian Stokes completed program review. The self-study and validation teams developed a final plan of action-post validation based on information in the self study and the recommendations of the validation team. For each plan, indicate the action taken, the result of that action, and the current status of the plan, if it is incomplete.

(If any plan was made and action not taken, please state the rationale for not pursuing that particular item.)

4. If current enrollment trend continues the department should expand the pool of part­time faculty and potentially seek the approval to hire an additional full-time faculty member.

The part-time faculty pool at LVC and the main campus would benefit from having additional instructors.

Allan Hancock College Program Review

2011-12 Comprehensive Self-Study

Program review is intended to be a reflective process that builds on the extensive information gathered for the Annual Updates and lays out the program's major directions for the future. (Place your responses in the expandable text boxes below each question .}

I. Program Mission (must align with college mission statement)

Describe the need that is met by the program or the purpose of the program. For CTEA programs only, show that "the program does not represent an unnecessary duplication of other vocational or occupational training programs in the area." (Sample: The Health, Physical Education, and Recreation Division is committed to providing excellent education opportunities to our students for their affective, cognitive and psychomotor development as they pursue sport, recreation, physical education, health education and wei/ness. We will encourage our students to further and sustain their individual endeavors toward the regular, lifelong pursuit of physical activity and a healthy lifestyle.)

The mission of the anthropology program is to provide students with holistic, comparative, and evolutionary knowledge about human biological and cultural similarities and differences world-wide and through time. The anthropology program strives to produce students with experience in methods, analysis, interpretation and a strong appreciation of anthropology's relevance to the world today. Students are taught to question and examine the significance of beliefs, attitudes, and prejudices toward human differences and similarities. Students will be informed of the anthropological position of relativism and valuing cultural and biological variation. The anthropology program prepares students for a broad range of both public and private sector employment in anthropology-related fields and/or to transfer to four-year universities.

II. Progress Made Toward Past Program/Departmental Goals

Summarize the progress the program/department has made toward achieving its goals during the past six years. Discuss briefly the quality, effectiveness, and strengths of the program as reflected in its Annual Updates. Show the relationship between the program goals, the mission of the college, the district strategic plan, and the impact on student development and success.

Page 6: PROGRAM REVIEW - Allan Hancock Collegeresearch.hancockcollege.edu/student_learning_outcomes/... · 2013-06-11 · Allan Hancock College Program Review 2011-12 Comprehensive Self-Study

Over the past six years the many of the program goals identified in the last program have meet or are ongoing (see above -Status Summary- Plan of Action-Post Validation). One of the program goals (develop new courses) has been abandoned due to the state-wide emphasis of transfer degrees which focus on core classes.

Ill. Analysis of Resource Use and Program Implementation

Describe the program's current allocation and use of human, physical, technology, and fiscal resources. Are resources sufficient and appropriate to meet program needs? Can program resources be reallocated to better meet student needs?

Currently there is one full-time Associate Professor and four adjunct faculty. Between spring 2006 and fall 2012 the number of sections has dropped from 37 to 31 with an average of 34 sections per academic year during this six year period. The fluctuating number of course offerings for the program is related to fiscal concerns of the college for any given semester. Due to unforeseen changes in the pool of part­time faculty, it would be advisable to recruit additional personal so that program's staffing needs are meet. As stated in the Status Summary- Plan of Action-Post Validation (see above), funding for additional teaching materials, field trips and a new laptop computer for the full-time professor are needed. The need to reallocate of program resources is not recognized at this time.

IV. Program SLOs/ Assessment

What are your program student learning outcomes? Have each of these been assessed since the last comprehensive program review? How are they measured? What did the assessment data indicated about the strengths and weaknesses of your program? What changes do you plan based on these data?

I See Attached SLO Assessment Report

V. Trend Analyses/Outlook

Using the information already gathered in the AUs (e.g., enrollment and achievement data; student learning outcomes assessment and analysis; input by advisory boards; existing articulation agreements; labor market trends) summarize the major trends, challenges, and opportunities that have emerged in the program since the last program review

Page 7: PROGRAM REVIEW - Allan Hancock Collegeresearch.hancockcollege.edu/student_learning_outcomes/... · 2013-06-11 · Allan Hancock College Program Review 2011-12 Comprehensive Self-Study

Budget constraints in California have reduced our income and work load at AHC. This in turn has forced us to eliminate sections in anthropology. Nevertheless, the anthropology program has been able to offer courses at times and venues which have satisfied much of the student demand for the program.

One of the ways that anthropology program sought to accommodate students was to increase the average class size for several sections. For example, in the 2006-07 academic year the average class size for anthropology was 26 and we had 37 sections. In the 2011-12 academic year the average class size was 55 and we had only 31 sections. Because the program typically has larger classes than other departments our average class size averages 40 vs. 24 for the college as a whole. The WSCH/FTEF is likewise larger at 732 vs. 407. The FTES six year average for the program is 136.6 with the highest FTES coming in the 2010-11 academic year with 198.6.

The anthropology program retention average of 75% and the success rate is 55%. Both of these numbers are below the AHC averages which I feel represents the academic rigor of the program. However, efforts are being made to use SLO data to modify courses to improve student retention and success.

The demographics of the student population show that for the past six years are as follows: Hispanic = 40% Asian/Filipino/Pac. Islander= 6.5% Black= 2.5% White =42% Other/Unknown = 9%

Looking at demographics, it's clear that our student population includes a much higher percentage of Hispanics than 6 years ago (+197% compared with only +42% for the college as a whole). There has also been an increase in the number of students taking a full load as compared with the college as a whole (+103% vs. +12%).

As applicable, please address the breadth, depth, currency, and cohesiveness of the curriculum in relation to evolving employer needs and/or transfer requirements, as well as other important pedagogical or technology-related developments.

All course outlines of record for the anthropology were updated in the fall of 2012. I have also developed an Associate in Arts in anthropology for transfer as per C-ID DIG and waiting for the TMC to be approved by State Academic Senate .

Textbooks in all sections have updated/changed from the last program review and new teaching modalities have been explored in all courses.

VI. Long-Term Program Goals and Action Plans (Aligned With the College Educational Master Plan)

Describe the long-term plans for changing or developing new courses and programs, other actions being taken to enhance student success, and the need for professional development activities and other resources to implement program goals. Be sure to show how these plans are related to assessment results. (Plan should cover five-year period and include target dates and resources needed.}

At present, there are no plans to develop new courses for the anthropology program.

Courses are being evaluated to improve student success and retention by incorporating new teaching modalities and pedagolical approaches. For example, critical thinking exercises are given to students to reinforce course material and demonstrate understanding.

Associate in Arts in Anthropology for Transfer

Criteria A. Appropriateness to Mission

1. Statement ofProgram Goals and Objectives:

Anthropology is the study of humans, past and present. To understand the full sweep and complexity of cultures across all of human history, anthropology draws and builds upon knowledge from the social and biological sciences as well as the humanities and physical sciences. A central concern of anthropologists is the application of knowledge to the solution of human problems (AAA, 2012). The anthropology program at AHC provides courses that enable students to complete lower division prerequisites and general education requirements for transfer to institutions of higher learning and/or receive an Associate's degree. The goal of AHC's anthropology program is to prepare students to use anthropology's holistic perspective, research methods, and general knowledge to gain a greater understanding of people in general and the world as a whole.

Program SLOS:

PSLO 1: Explain the importance of human biological and/or cultural variation. PSLO 2: Ability to think critically and demonstrate an understanding of discipline related issues, problems, and research. PSLO 3: Ability to communicate effectively about topics in and related anthropology. PSLO 4: Demonstrate proficiency in anthropological concepts and terminology.

0 ALLAN HANCOCK COLLEGE Assessment Plan

This part of the program review demonstrates alignment of courses with coverage of program student learning outcomes and lays out the program's plans for conducting assessments over the forthcoming five years.

Mission

The mission of the anthropology program is to provide students with holistic, comparative, and evolutionary knowledge about human biological and cultural similarities and differences world-wide and through time. The anthropology program strives to produce students with experience in methods, analysis, interpretation and a strong appreciation of anthropology's relevance to the world today. Students are taught to question and examine the significance of beliefs, attitudes, and prejudices toward human differences and similarities. Students will be informed of the anthropological position of relativism and valuing cultural and biological variation. The anthropology program prepares students for a broad range of both public and private sector employment in anthropology-related fields and/or to transfer to four-year universities.

Program Outcomes Please list all program outcomes here:

Program SLO 1: Explain the importance of human biological and/or cultural variation.

Program SLO 2: Ability to think critically and demonstrate an understanding of discipline related issues, problems, and research. I Program SLO 3: Ability to communicate effectively about topics in and related anthropology. I Program SLO 4: Demonstrate proficiency in anthropological concepts and terminology.

STUDENT DATA SUMMARY

Data analysis is a critical component of program review. The three categories below should be used as guidelines in developing a summary of the student data.

State at least three positive factors about the discipline/program identified by students. Include the number (or percentage) of students responding and any implications for planning.

The student surveys indicate that students are satisfied with the quality of instruction (83 .9% = 1.53 average), with the way the program helps them meet their educational goals (78.6% = 1. 76) and the way the program contributes to their intellectual growth (85% = 1.54 ). Most of the other assessments made by the students were in the same range.

Implications for Planning: The data shows that Anthropology remains a successful academic program with positive effects on students that reach beyond the classroom.

State at least three negative factors about the discipline/program identified by students. Include the number (or percentage) of students responding and any implications for planning.

There weren't any glaring complaints from the students. Advice from counselors was a little lower than the others (65.3% = 2.22 satisfied), whether they would take more classes in the program (49.4% = 2.57 would take more classes) and course assistance was a little lower than average (66.7% = 2.05 satisfied).

Implications for Planning: Additional resources for, and increased efforts to promote counseling and tutoring should be pursued. The Student Success Taskforce Recommendations indicate that they will probably need to hire more counselors which should improve our ratings in that area.

State any other information (use responsive numbers) that you obtained from student data (e.g. focus groups, questionnaires, or SGIDs) that may be of special interest to the self study team. What planning implications will result from this information?

Two other items of interest that scored relatively low were "The availability of courses offered in the program" (76.1% = 1.9) and "Instructional equipment" (68.3% =1.98).

Implications for Planning: This data could be seen as evidence to support the allocation of more funding to increase course offerings and instruction equipment for students. Further institutional research should be conducted to adequately assess these student concerns.

OUTSIDE ASSIGNMENTS (Assignment examples, if provided, should reflect coverage of all objectives and course content. Assignments can include supplemental reading materials beyond the required texts. The initiator should give the basis for grading, and relate assignments to skills and abilities listed in the objectives.)

1. Work on assigned tasks.

Sample Assignment:

Zoo Project

Learning Objectives: 1. Identify major groups of living (extant) primates on the basis of their observable features. 2. Become familiar with some of the methods used in collecting data on animal behavior. 3. Become familiar with species-specific behavior of some primate species.

Exercise 1 - Primate Inventory Locate and list all of the different non-human primates at the zoo. The zoo provides a map that will show you where they are located. For each primate record its common name.

Classification of Primates, Characteristics, Geographic Distribution For three of the species listed above, answer the following questions. You will likely need to use the textbook from your lecture class or some other reference source.

A. Common Name Scientific Name

B. Classification - Suborder

Identify six traits that this species possess that would allow you to classify as a member of this suborder? Please use general traits that you can visually observe.

What is the species infraorder? -------------

What is the species superfamily? ___________ _

C. Habitats and Geographical Distribution

In what kind of habitat is the primate found? (e.g., savanna, secondary rainforest, etc.) Where is this species found geographically? (continent, region)

D. Observed Features and Behaviors

Page 84: PROGRAM REVIEW - Allan Hancock Collegeresearch.hancockcollege.edu/student_learning_outcomes/... · 2013-06-11 · Allan Hancock College Program Review 2011-12 Comprehensive Self-Study

Look at the primates hands. Is there anything unusual about the fingers or thumb? How similar or different do they appear to human hands? (Hint: look at fingernails, relative length of fingers and opposability ofthumb.)

Does this species have a tail? If so, is it prehensile? What does the tail do, even if nonprehensile? How long is the tail in relation to its body length?

What is its primary mode of locomotion (how it moves around)? Have you observed additional forms of locomotion? What are they?

How many individuals are in the exhibit and how old do they appear to be (juvenile, adult, etc.). How many females and males are there? How can you differentiate the sex? Describe the primate's pelage (coat) and be specific. Observe the primates for five (5) minutes and describe some of their behaviors that you've observed.

Primate Behavioral Observations Choose one species at the zoo and apply three different data collection techniques to that species: ad libitum, instantaneous sampling, and scan sampling. An important objective is to learn to distinguish which sampling methods are best for which species and/or situations. If possible, choose a species that is visible in their exhibit so that you can collect the data successfully.

I. Ad Libitum Sampling On a separate sheet of paper record your observations of this species for one-half hour. Be sure to tell me what species you are observing. Detail is important so try to record everything that you observe. If the primates are inactive, than even more specificity is needed. For example:

Genus species: Cercopithecus hamlyni Starting time: 2:05 pm

From 2:05 to 2:08 the female groomed her own leg and male sat alone in rear of enclosure watching the female. At 2:09 the male approached the female and sat next to her but she seemed to ignore him. The male looked at the human observers and licked his lips. At 2:11 the male jumped to an overhanging branch and sat above the female. His tail dropped in front of her face as he looked down at her, licking his lips. She looked briefly at him and then continued to groom.

II. Focal Animal Instantaneous Sampling After completing the ad libitum sampling record, define the behaviors you just observed for this species. The purpose of this exercise is to have you learn how to categorize the behavior of captive primates and to construct definitions to describe what these behaviors are and why they may occur. You are required to record and define a minimum often (10) different behaviors. Each behavior should be mutually exclusive. This means that each behavior should be defined so that it is distinguishable from all other behaviors. Be sure to define each behavior descriptively. For example:

Behaviors: 1. quadrupedal stand - position in which all four limbs are on the ground and

Page 85: PROGRAM REVIEW - Allan Hancock Collegeresearch.hancockcollege.edu/student_learning_outcomes/... · 2013-06-11 · Allan Hancock College Program Review 2011-12 Comprehensive Self-Study

roughly perpendicular to the torso. - Resting 2. lip smacking- mandible is moved up and down at a rapid pace so that lips briefly smack together. - Social

These behaviors are to be typed and submitted with your finished project. In addition, categorize these behaviors in one of four criteria (see above definitions):

Feeding: includes foraging (searching for food), consuming, and chewing Resting: in a stationary posture for at least 10 seconds during time interval Traveling: moving from one area of the exhibit to another Social: interacting with another individual of its species

Use the Focal Animal Instantaneous Sampling chart at the end of this assignment and fill in the behaviors of the primate as you observe them. Focusing on one specific individual, use the definitions you developed and their associated categories to fill in this chart. Collect the data in !-minute intervals and record the individual primate's behavior at the end of this time span. Thus, you will not be recording all of the individual's behaviors during the 1-minute interval, only what they are doing at the end of the interval. Thus, only one behavior should be recorded in each column. Collect data on your focal animal for at least 15 minutes.

Scan Sampling In scan sampling, the general activity for all animals in the exhibit is recorded simultaneously, at predetermined intervals. As in the Focal Animal Instantaneous Sampling you'll be recording your data only at the precise sample point (every 1-minute ). This method is used to record either general categories of behavior or to focus attention on only one or two specific types of behavior to the exclusion of others.

Summary Questions: Use your observations and completed forms to complete this section of the assignment. Your answers are to be typed and submitted with your project on the due date.

1. Based on your ad libitum observations, describe the amount of time your primate species spent doing various activities.

2. Do the same for the focal animal instantaneous sampling method. With the number of observations as your sample size, figure out the percentages of time spent (or, rather, samples observed) for each different behavior. In addition to your description, create a pie-chart to demonstrate the statistical differences in the four main categories of behaviors.

3. Repeat question two for your Scan Sampling data. Use the total number of observations as your sample size, figure out the percentages oftime spent (or, rather, samples observed) for each different behavior. Be sure to include a brief description with your pie-chart.

4. Write an essay comparing and contrast the three different data collection methods you used for this assignment. What are the advantages and disadvantages of each? Which methods are more objective and which are more subjective? Explain why.

Project Summary 5. What do think you learned for this assignment? Did you discover any related behaviors that humans and primates perform? Did the primates do anything that

Page 86: PROGRAM REVIEW - Allan Hancock Collegeresearch.hancockcollege.edu/student_learning_outcomes/... · 2013-06-11 · Allan Hancock College Program Review 2011-12 Comprehensive Self-Study

surprised you? Would you be able to be a primatologist? What is overall impression of non-human primates after completing this assignment?
