What we are planning to work on:

  • Implement the use of Schoology platform to all certificate required courses.
  • Modify course to increase more practical use of trade tools such as the oscilloscope, frequency counter, function generators, and multimeter (analog/digital).
  • Request to purchase Ball grid array (BGA) soldering using hot air work station and Infrared soldering station since I don’t have them at my respective campus. We need these types of soldering stations since it is used in the advancement/current trend of soldering techniques by the majority of manufacturing companies on consumer electronics, business machines, and telecommunication products being used today.
  • Modify and suggest schedule of program courses to begin with the four basic courses such as VEE 100, VEM 110, VEE 103, and VSP 121 on every fall semester to accommodate new students.
  • Continuously expand EET program recruitment to the community.

Recommendations for students:

Electronic Engineering Program is the stepping stone to more advance courses in Electronic Technology and Telecommunication Technology Programs and has a strong foundation in math and science. Therefore, students must pass or have a grade “C” or better in all General Education requirement courses (4 courses) along with Technical Requirement courses (8 courses) for them to automatically roll-over to preferred degree program (AAS) in Electronic or Telecommunication.

Students should be able to use different test equipment, identify and differentiate between passive and active electronic components, be able to read block diagrams and schematic diagrams, and able to use ohm’s law and other electronic fundamental formulas proficiently before taking the advance courses in EET or TC.

Campus: Pohnpei Campus

Completed by: Gardner Edgar

AP Review Submission Date:March 28, 2014

AR Review Cycle: 2012-2014

     

  1. Program Goals

    1. Demonstrate entry level skills that are needed to pursue a career as a technician in the field of electronic or related areas.
    2. Demonstrate intellectual skills and critical thinking skills to become effective learners and well informed citizen.

  2. Program History

    Milestones:

    1. 1999 - The first course was offered with 5 students.
    2. 2000 - One full time instructor was recruited to assist in designing curriculum and offer courses
    3. 2001- Additional instructor was recruited and enrollment increased to 12 students
    4. 2003 - Substantive change report to WASC was approved to extend COA in Electronics to include Advanced Certificate and Associate of Applied Science degree in Electronic Technology and Telecommunication Technology
    5. Commenced the use of computer assisted instruction (NIDA) to improve course delivery
    6. Recruited 12 Technicians from FSMTC to enroll in the AAS Telecommunication Technology program
    7. 2003 – First certificate graduates
    8. 2005 – Since the program served as the foundation of AAS ET and TT, two cohorts or more are needed for every semester. This led to teaching overloads and utilization of part-time instructors.
    9. 2011 – Due to low graduate rates or low number of students completing requirements within three or four semesters, program discouraged enrolling certificate-bound students. Certificate-bound students have great difficulties in completing the required courses in three or four semesters.
    10. 2012 – Due to the above claim, official request was send to VPIA office to prohibit certificate-bound students to enroll in the program. It was rather suggested that certificate should be viewed as an exit level.
    11. Presently, program is focused in recruiting degree-bound students for fall 2014.

  3. Program Description

    The program serves as the foundation of the AAS ET and TT programs. Students must complete it before continuing into the AAS programs.

    Electronic Engineering Technology program offers academic course work, technical skills training and practical experience to prepare the students for positions in the Electronic industry. Its primary purpose is to provide students with marketable entry-level skills in the electronic industry or any related field/career. The program qualifies students to take external licensure, vendor-based, or skill standards examinations in the field. If standardized external exams are not available in the field of study, the program prepares students at skill levels expected of employees in an occupation found in the workforce. The academic and technical coursework will also prepare students to pursue advanced training in the area at higher institution

  4. Program Admission Requirements

    Initially, it has the same admission requirements of the other T&T certificate programs as stated below: [extracted from catalog, page 32]

    Admission to Certificate of Achievement Programs: High school graduates and General Education Development certificate holders who are not accepted into or are not interested in a degree program may apply for admission into an entry-level certificate of achievement program.

    However, current development over the years, it was proposed in 2012 that the program would now change its admission requirement to recruiting degree-bound students.

    EET program had a different general requirements compared to other T&T certificate programs. Recent course modifications have suggested required requisites or the reading and writing level of students must be at ESL089/099 or better and a math level or MS100 or better. This is a necessary admission requirement to ensure students in program would be able to complete all requirements within 3 or 4 semesters (including summer) as suggested in the catalog.

    All students who have completed the EET program are currently pursuing their AAS degree in either Electronic Technology (ET) or Telecommunications (TC).

    14. Employment data and employer feedback (employer survey)

    Some of the students who completed the EET program and continue into the ET and TC where enrolled in VEE250 Cooperative Education. The course provided the students the opportunity to gain employment skills. Students were placed at actual worksites to perform tasks as planned and to be monitored, supervised, and evaluated by actual worksite supervisors. Based on instructor’s record, out of 20 students, 11 students received 36 out of 40 points rating from site supervisors, 5 students received 34 out 40 points from site supervisors, 3 students received 30 out of 40 points from site supervisors, and only one student received points below the satisfactory level.

    15.Program added or cancelled at nearby regional institutions (PCC, GCC, Hawaii schools, UOG, CMI, NMC)

    PCC offers a similar program entitled, Certificate of Achievement in General Electronics, which has a total of 60 credits. Coursework included basic electronics, analog & digital electronics, circuit applications, microcontrollers, video & audio systems, PC maintenance, and Internship.

    GCC offers a similar certificate program entitled, Secondary CTE Electronic Program-this is a 2-plus-2 program that begins enrolling students at the high school level and progresses into GCC where they complete the program. Coursework included electronics, PC essentials, and networking. The program also serves as a stepping stone for their degree programs in Computer Networking and System Technology

    Honolulu Community College (HCC) also offers a similar certificate program called Computing Electronic Networking Technology (CENT). The program is designed to provide the student with a mixture of knowledge and hands-on training with an emphasis on preparing students for entry-level employment in the ICT industry. The program also serves as a stepping for the CENT degree program.

    UOG offers professional development training program in Computer Certification courses.

    CMI has no electronics or other similar certificate programs

    NMC also has no electronics or other similar certificate programs.

    16. Transfer Rate

    EET program serves as the first year program for the AAS in Electronic Technology (ET) and Telecommunication (TC) If not all, most students who successfully completed the EET certificate program advance to the AAS as a ET or TC major.

  9. Analysis and Recommendation

    Finding
    This section provides discussion of information discovered as a result of the evaluation such as problems or concerns with the program and what part of the program is working well and meeting expectation.

    1. Full time instructors that are currently teaching EET courses are also responsible in teaching the AAS Telecommunication and Electronic Technology programs. Every semester part-time instructors/volunteer instructors are being utilized to assist in teaching courses to alleviate the teaching loads of the two full time instructors. Three full-time instructors are needed to accommodate the three different cohorts as mentioned above in Program Faculty section.
    2. PSLO #1-ost students are meeting this.
      PSLO #2-most students are satisfactorily competent in using hand tools. But most students are struggling in mastering the use of electronic tools and equipment. The time students spent on practicing in using the test equipment is limited mainly due to the sharing of a few workstations among many students. Also, students need more opportunity to put skills into actual practice.
    3. Based on course level assessment reports, most students who failed to achieve SLOs are mostly due to poor reading level to comprehend reading materials and lectures, unmotivated to study or learning, and problem with attendance.
    4. Enrollment in the EET has been decreasing. One of the causes is due to the recommendation of not allowing certificate-bound into the program, which began implementing in 2012.
      Graduation or completion rate for the program is low. Students were not encouraged or advised to apply for graduation upon completion of the program. Perhaps, students did not see the point in applying for graduation since they will continue into the AAS program.
      Also, sequencing of courses and student advisement could be contributed to this finding. Some students preferred to put off courses like SC130 until the end to complete it and SC130 is a requirement for the EET program. And when students follow this sequence, they completed both requirements for EET and ET or TC at their last terms.

    Recommendation:

    This section provides recommendations from the program on what to do to improve or enhance the quality of program and course learning outcomes as well as program goals and objectives. This section should also include suggestions that describe how the program might be able to create opportunities for a better program in the future. Some examples are exploring alternate delivery mechanisms, forming external partnerships, or realigning with other programs.

    1. Hire a full-time instructor to join the two existing instructors to effectively deliver courses in the EET, ET, and TC programs to eliminate or minimize teaching overloads and to ensure students are in the best course sequence to complete requirements in the shortest time possible.
    2. PSLO #1-Continue the effort of teaching students industrial safety with required teaching materials. Encourage to wear the proper attire during hands-on practice and to purchase required toolkit.
    3. The following are the suggestions/recommendations from the Course Level Assessments

      Recommend Bookstore to continue in assisting of selling student toolkit required for the EET program. It was recommended to include in the toolkit set a pair of safety/working shoes.

      PSLO #2- Purchase additional electronic testing equipment such as digital oscilloscopes, function generators, and NIDA experiment cards. Currently, we have equipment and materials to form 4 workstations that would accommodate 15 or 16 students, which would have 3 or 4 students at each workstation. If the enrollment is 20, then there will be 5 students at each workstation.

      Recommend to purchase the following instructional equipment and materials:

      • NIDA experiment cards – DC, AC, Analog, and Digital (4 sets of each)
      • Digital Oscilloscope (4 each) and Function generator (4 each)

      4. And to address the need of more time to put skills into practice, it is recommended that instructors will utilize proposed community servicing to provide students additional opportunity to put skills into actual practice.

    4. The need of acquiring the right kind of students into the program, students who are academically prepared and motivated, it is recommended to develop and implement a recruiting strategy to identify potential high school students at early stage during the 11th grade of high school. It has been proposed that the EET will be working closely with the TRIO programs (UB, ETSP, and Gear-Up) to recruit potential students for fall 2015 and on.

      5. Also, EET program will try to recruit non-traditional students by offering evening courses.

    5. Recommendation for #3 will also address the current low graduation rate of the program. Additionally, it is also recommended that the EET program could join other degree programs to recruit potential programs outside of Pohnpei or FSM, possibly Chuuk, RMI, and CNMI since this type of program is not available their sites or local colleges.

      6. And to help improve the sequencing and scheduling of courses and ensuring students completed all program requirements in a timely fashion, it is recommended the program will modify and develop new courses to replace old courses.

      Replace VSP121, VEE100, and VEM110 with one course

      Replace VEE110 and VEE125 with one course

      Currently, EET program is working on a program modification request.
