Equipment TechnologyInstructional MaterialsInstructionAccountingFaculty laptop computers are between 2 - 5 years old and will need to be replaced at some point.XAdministration of JusticeObtain a backup hard drive system for the ADMJ laptop and Desk Top computers: Updated lesson plans, SLO information, etc., is contained on the computers with no back-up computer system available. Purchase a vehicle for the POST Modular program: We project the POST Modular program to beginin the fall of 2016. Curriculum for this program requires the use of a police vehicle or similar vehicle for ‘slow speed’ maneuvers. Successful completion of the program qualifies candidates as Reserve Police Officers. Reserve Officers can be assigned duties requiring driving 'in-service' patrol vehicles. Obviously the vehicle does not have to be new, just sound mechanically. Prepare for new POST testing system and requirements: The testing system for the POST Modular programmay be improved and put on-line. The best case scenario would be to outfit a computer lab for the ADMJ program. The worst case scenario would be to schedule the classes in one of the labs on campus for testing. Regardless of how it is done, the new testing system will only be available online and require secure access to computers. Test security is a high priority for POST.Establish an Instructor soft uniform purchase system: Instructors in the new program should have a polo shirt with appropriate logo as an identifier that she/he is a POST qualified instructor in the Modular program. Students will be required to wear specific police training type clothing.Develop and update the ADMJ Video Library with recent training material in the video (DVD) format.AnthropologyMicroscopes, slides, skeletal material and fossil casts, blood typing kits, DNA extraction materials, fingerprinting kits, etc. will be needed for Physical Anthropology Lab (127).Current films on various topics in anthropology. Other materials listed under Equipment, such as microscopes, slides, etc.AODSXXArchitectureCurriculum changes at transfer schools have lead to an increased use of computer-based design tools and design-build projects. With appropriate scheduling and funding, access to computers and software can met through the drafting/CAD lab and the CIS Computer Center. The proposed tech shop in the new Center for Innovation and Emerging technologies would allow students to undertake more complex design-build projects.Additional funds for instructional materials and supplies will be needed if curriculum review and restructuring leads to the inclusion of more complex fabrication techniques for models and mock-ups.Art 2-DWhile Building 4 (the Fine Arts complex) was “renovated” six years ago, much of our basic equipment and furniture was not updated in that process. Critical studio lighting that was requested during the remodel was not supplied and this is our first priority in terms of ensuring optimal instructional success. We also need to gradually start to replace our easels, art “donkeys,” lights, props, and other equipment in the next three years, as most of the equipment has not been replaced for at least ten years. This year I'm requesting one-third of these supplies, with the plan to request another third for the next two years, until all equipment has been updated.Correct studio lighting in order to teach Renaissance light theory and modeling is a critical need for us for our drawing studio, 4-137/139. As mentioned earlier, this was supposed to be included in the re-model. Our instructional success is severely handicapped without this vital component.Art 3-DKevlar Gloves -- 3 pairsSplash Guards for Pottery Wheels''Glass Kiln -- Skutt GM22CS will be bought by the VAC a student club and donated to the college.Repair/properly install the 240 outlet in the welding areaInstall 240 outlet for new glass kiln in sculpture studio.A particulate air filter system is needed in the stone carving area.Plastic sheeting to be installed in the sculpture courtyard to prevent the spread of dustXArt HistoryNo SubmissionAstronomyAt the end of the Fall 2015 semester, the Astronomy department will be upgrading the entire GOTO Chronos Hybrid system. We will be upgrading our present Chronos Hybrid D3 SP2HD to the RSA Cosmos Hybrid system. In this system, our present Chronos star projector will be upgraded to the Chronos II star projector. Here are some of the advantages of the Chronos II: LED stars that are 5x brighter, and minimum fan noise, since the LEDs run cooler than the original lamps. We will not have to replace burnt out lamps anymore, which also saves on cost.The digital video component of the hybrid is a state-of-the-art system from RSA Cosmos. The video projectors will afford us high fulldome resolution 4k x 4k pixels. This increased resolution will give sharper, more realistic images and is more in keeping with our state-of-the-art facility. There will be numerous astronomical datasets, allowing us to probe deeper into galaxies, allowing us to display the most recent astronomical discoveries to our students and general public. The installation of this new RSA hybrid system will be the first on the west coast and the third in the country.Approx. $1,473.40 RequestedThese items are necessary for the ASTR 101 and 103 labs:Orion SkyGlow Broadband Filter 10@82.99--$829.90.Solar Motion Demonstrator Kit 10@$32.95--$329.50.iOptron Smartphone Eyepiece Adaptor 3@$58.00--$174.00.Sub Total: $1,333.40.Estimated shipping and handling and tax: $140.00.Total: $1,473.40.Biology & Health ScienceContinued technological support is needed to improve online course materials, especially updated Camtasia and Dragon licenses for online and web-assisted courses.The department needs eventual cadaver replacement, camera for live projection of cadaver dissection and demonstrations, expanded clicker use and increased provision for loaners by division. Because of a new lab course, Human Biology Lab (BIOL 132) new material will be needed.Building InspectionNo SubmissionBusiness & ManagementNo SubmissionChemistryIn addition to incorporating online technology and teaching methodology into our courses for greater student success, we are also using technology to enhance intra- and interdepartmental collaborations. In the short term, fulltime and part-time faculty need better laptops to facilitate their work. In the medium to long term, we would welcome a college-wide program to provide additional equipment, training and support of use of technology in all STEM programs for students and faculty. The STOT1 and STOT2 courses are excellent and if they could be offered at times that were during the summer then the ability of full time and part time faculty to take advantage of them would be increased.As online homework systems and WebAccess become more widely used in our courses, we need to ensure there is a sufficient number of work stations for students in the ISC/Learning center; and these centers should be open at hours that fully accommodate students’ schedules. For faculty, learning new technology is time-consuming and costly in terms of equipment (software and hardware), a centralized and well-equipped location (such as a STEM technology support lab) would maximize our efforts to learn and apply new technology into our teaching. Our Chemistry supply budget of $10,500 for equipment and supply and various consumables have not changed over the past 8 years. The cost of many chemicals and supply has gone up ranging from 5-15% along with increase in shipping cost. For our students to remain competitive for transfer and in the current job market, it is essential for them to be exposed to a broad range of experimental methods and experience of handling hazardous materials. These experiments require the use of expensive glassware and chemicals. We need to have a gradual increase in supply budget in order to cope with higher material cost and inflation. Equipment: 1. The pH electrodes are reaching their lifespan and need to be replaced. We will need to purchase a minimum of 60 pH electrodes. 2. We may need to replace the data acquisition system with another type of data acquisition system. This will require at least 40 stations and 40 each of the corresponding probes that go with the new system. 3. We need to buy at least three more centrifuges. 4. We need to buy at least four more milligram balances. 5. We need to replace the DI water filters. 6. We need to buy at least 4 more UV/VIS spectrophotometers. 7. The GC/MS instrument can be used for demo purposes. This instrument requires preventative maintenance. 8. MeasureNet stations have been failing and require 10 replacements. 9. We need to replace 10 colorimeter probes for the MeasureNet stations. 10. Hoods require inspection and necessary repairs.Glassware and other miscellaneous items: 1.There is a high turnover of glassware as a result of student usage. It is essential to replace this glassware. 2. The last time we purchased full organic microkits (sets of equipment essential for organic labs) was in 2005. More glassware is needed: 20 more microkits. 3. We need to buy at least 20 silicone rubber hand protectors. 4. We need to buy 20 desiccant cartridges.1. Our s, p, d and f atomic orbital model sets are over 50 years old and are falling apart.. Having physical models available in the classroom allows us to introduce concepts through modalities that appeal to kinesthetic and 3D visual spatial learners. These models help bring alive a concept of atomic orbitals that is challenging but fundamental to the understanding of chemistry.2. Water electrolysis and gas law demo kits. Large scale models of sodium chloride, water, graphite and diamond.3. Replacement ACS exams.4. Replacement calculators.5. All of the equipment, glassware and miscellaneous items fall into this category as well as we need them to teach our munication StudiesXApprox. $299.00 RequestedCOMM STUDIES has used ANIMOTO PRO for designing promotional videos of its students’ work which represent the department on its website. Annual cost is $puter Information ScienceThe CIS Computer Lab is located in building 19, rooms 124 and 126. It is open to all students but priority is given to ARCH, CIS, ENGR, DRAF, BUSW students. There are 45 desktop computers and 2 printers in the lab. All 45 desktop computers and 1 printer will need replacement within the next two years. Additionally, each faculty member will need new high-end computers within this time frame. One instructor needs a MAC computer in addition to her PC.The beginning programming classes use robots for instruction. These will need to be maintained and replaced within the next two years. New Lego Mindstorms robots are no longer compatible with Lejos Java so the robots would need to be replaced with a different type of robot.CosmetologyThe esthetics machines—equipment used to perform facial procedures—are at the end of their useful life of five years. The demand for Spa facials and client load has risen dramatically and more machines and tables are needed. Delicate instruments used in these procedures cannot stand up indefinitely to continuous use by different students who are still learning how to work with them.Students are becoming more interested in Make up and their skills have grown exponentially. It is necessary that the faculty and staff be able to keep up with the demands of our students and the increasing demands of the industry for make up artists. Two members of faculty and staff already took workshops with Kryolan on air brushing and other members will be taking the workshop. We need to purchase air brushing machines and supplies in order to instruct students in this techniques.We also need to purchase some more air purifiers for the Senior lab floor to help with the ventilation problem when doing strong chemical services. We have air movers on the freshmen side that we believe may help on the senior side as well.Cosmetology is an ever-changing industry and textbooks are updated every few years which means that instructor materials also need to be updated at the same rate. Instructors need more instructional materials to update the curriculum to meet the demand of an increase of interest by students in the areas of skin care and make up. Air brush make up equipment is needed to instruct in this technique which has become widely used in industry.Demonstration videos of each operation tested during the new NIC licensing exam. We are also adding workbooks to aid students in comprehending the material that is given to them.Dental AssistingEquipment and Technology: Long range goal would be to do more of the lecture classes on line and implement technology into the classes.Instructional Materials: The program will need updates of instructional materials, this includes but is not limited to the following:?DVDs and/or online testing services.?recurring cost items, warranties,?Service contracts for software?Maintenance of equipment?Repairs of equipment?Replacement of equipment as it failsDigital MediaXThe existing instructional materials are adequate.Drafting Technology1. Computer station requirements will have to be updated as the CAD software programs improve. We now have access to a new computer lab that CIS allows us to use in the evenings. 2. Our projector in 19-110 sits on a roll table that has many cables that are trip hazards. It would benefit the classroon to have the Epson projector secured to the ceiling on a proper bracket.3. desktop CNC machine would benefit all levels of students compared to accessing a 3D printer since the latter requires 3D skills. First semester AutoCAD students work in 2D, thus would not be able to use a 3D system.XEconomicsXXElectronics TechnologyEquipment and Technology: Currently the faculty is exploring designs for a workstation for hydraulics, pneumatics and vacuum experiments that will be included in ELEC 424 which is a course that will be offered for the A.S. Degree. Aslo the engineering dept. gave the electronics program two three axis robots the will be incorporated into motor control and communication courses once the devices are repaired.Instructional Materials: The faculty is still exploring the updating of the textbooks used in ELEC 111 and ELEC 112 as well as researching ebooks as a possible replacement to hold down student expenditures. Software packages are also being reviewed for possible use, but at this time there is not a defiant time table or priority driving this.EngineeringXIncreased use of group design projects in several classes will lead to a modest increase in the instructional materials and supplies funds needed to support the program.English & LiteratureXXEnglish as a Second LanguageXUpdated classroom materials may be needed every year or so for in-class workshops and activities, such as white boards. Marketing materials may also be necessary as collaboration continues with the Adult School and International Education. These are expected to total a couple hundred dollars at most at any one time.Ethnic StudiesNo SubmissionFilmThe Film program clearly demonstrates potential for growth.? If we move in the directions outlined above, we envision a designated film lab space, for viewing, tutoring, and possibly production.? Such growth would enhance transfer success and the ADT degree by offering more support for these courses.Instructional software and DVD's.Fire TechnologyBelow please find several items that need to be considered for replacement or purchase. The request of these items in many instances is directly related to safety concerns for the students and faculty. Because the FT program deals with manipulative skills as well as academic growth, the equipment replacement is necessary to keep current and safe equipment for use.For EMT training- The use of this equipment is essential for the success of the EMT program. These items are needed to adequately train and meet the Federal and State of California Standards for certification. Without this equipment our program will fall behind and suffer. We could also lose our ability to offer the classes by decertification of the program.The use of this equipment is essential for the success of the EMT program. These items are needed to adequately train and meet the Federal and State of California Standards for certification. Without this equipment our program will fall behind and suffer. We could also lose our ability to offer the classes by decertification of the program.GeographyXBooks and DVDS:? Essential to have a minimal budget for textbooks for the Library and Learning Center. A small budget for DVDS for classroom education.Geologic SciencesAn updated MacBook Pro for the faculty will eventually be necessary but recent re-imaging of the current MacBook has resolved some of the recent problems, making the need for replacement less urgent.Samples of the desired minerals, rocks and fossils are usually items that cannot be easily found and purchased. Faculty must travel to rock and mineral shows and stores to try to locate and purchase many of the desired samples and supplies or buy them on eBay.?HistoryNo SubmissionKinesiology-Athletics-DanceXXLibrary StudiesThe CSM Library is responsible for the physical care and access to the archive records of the College of San Mateo. Preservation of the printed materials requires supplies such as acid free boxes to properly store the materials. Access to the materials requires expertise (archival and cataloging) to organize the materials through the creation of catalog records and finding aids. Both activities, preservation and access,? require funding and staff to properly care for the collections.The reference desk area is surrounded by public computers that are used by students and other to complete academic work and research. These computers were installed 4 years ago and will need to be updated soon.The library has the only public photocopy machines on campus. All three machines have been in use for more than 7 years and will need replacing soon.The RFID resources tracking ?and circulation system is used by all of the libraries in the PLS system except the college libraries.? It will require new equipment for staff workstations, new item identification and security tags, new security gates and optimally a self-service station that enables patrons to pay library fines via debit or credit cards. It will be more efficient for students and staff and reduce likelihood of repetitive stress injuries.A five year, statewide contract for EBSCO databases began in 2012-2013. It provided a significant number of databases for community colleges. The library will need to plan now to anticipate the replacement of database funding when the contract ends in 2016-17.MathematicsComputers are useful in helping to increase arithmetic and algebraic skills for students in Math 811, 110, 111, and 112 (i.e. Basic Skills courses).? Computers are also helping in honing skills for Math 120 (Intermediate Algebra) students.? There is a need for a second computer lab/classroom to aid in teaching Basic Skills Mathematics, as the present lab/classroom in 16-111 is fully employed for teaching statistics, and is designed for collaborative work (only 20 computers) is not large enough for the estimated demand.Optimal location for this additional classroom will be adjacent to the Math Resource Center with a connecting door and large windows in the wall so that the room may double as an extension to the MRC when classes are not in session.In 2016, the 21 computers in 16-111, the statistics computer classroom will have reached their life expectancy and should be replaced.?Projectors in building 16 and 18 have been in service for quite a while, so a replacement plan needs to be developed.? Several classrooms used for Mathematics can become unbearably hot because of the dark shades that are in the rooms.? We are asking to replace these shades with lighter shades which would reflect, rather than maintain, the heat. It is not only a difficult learning environment for both students and teachers, but it could potentially be a health hazard for some people to be in rooms which could possible be in the 90's in temperature. The specific classrooms that we are asking for lighter shades are 18-203, 18-301, 18-303, 18-305, and 18-307. We are asking for a pair of blinds for each classroom - one shear and one opaque.We need another 4 ft x 7 ft whiteboard in the building 15 Math corridor, specific location between 15-127 and 15-129, in order to accommodate the large number of Math students who wish to have board space and work on Math problems near the offices of Math Department instructors.? Presently, there are 2 whiteboards in the Math corridor but they are not sufficient for the needs of the Math Department instructors and students.Traditional publishing companies provide copies free to instructors but charge students large amounts to purchase their personal copies of the text.? A growing subset of the mathematics faculty are selecting high quality open-source text book that are offered inexpensively to students. The open-source publishers do not provide complementary texts to faculty and to learning centers.? Many publishers only make solution manuals available to faculty as e-versions (previously we could get them as free print copies).? Funds will be needed to purchase print texts and solutions manuals for faculty who prefer print. (See complete discussion in Math Resource Center Program Review.)Microcomputer Applications ProgramNo SubmissionModern LanguagesXApprox. $390.00 RequestedThe Chinese program has used an educational resource?GLOSTER which provides resource and tools that contribute to innovative and interactive learning.?The annual subscription fee is $390.?Music1. Upgrades for Choral Room (2-110) to Create Recital VenueLighting for front “stage” area; Backdrop curtain for the stage area;Audio/visual upgrade to smart classroom/performance hall standards to replace outdated, aging system??2. Electronic Music Hardware RepairsMixers and the ARP 2600 need repairs.? At present, there is no consistent plan to update software, maintain and repair hardware.3. Damp Chasers for 5 Grand Pianos The biggest needs are in rooms 110 (the new Yamaha & the Mason/Hamlin), 240, 250, and 130 (rehearsal space) Source: to be purchased and installed by our piano technician.????? ?????? 4. CSM Ensemble travel and music program outreachAs the performance demands on our ensembles increase, the need to establish a budget for travel and enabling our groups to participate in competitive and non-competitive music festivals and performances is essential.? Jazz festivals, such as the Reno Jazz Festival, Santa Cruz Jazz Festival, Monterey Next Generation Festivals, and performances at state and local conferences are events that include community college ensembles.? Our students have limited access to these events due to lack of funding.? These needs are parallel to the needs of athletic teams, which require travel and lodging for league competitions.1.??? Arts Complex Faculty Workroom Copy Machine UpgradeThe small machine that the Creative Arts faculty currently has in Bldg 4 is insufficient for art and music department needs. It is too small a machine to handle the load required, is extremely slow, doesn’t staple jobs, and continually has problems needing repair. The Arts Complex Faculty Room needs a bigger and more robust copy machine to service our faculty.2.??? Document Camera The entire music department has only one document camera in 2-250. This instructional piece of equipment is a critical tool for effective and efficient use of class time. The music department teaches many lecture classes in 2-240 and 2-110 both of which also need a document camera to facilitate effective teaching.3.??? Portable Music Staff Lined Dry Erase White BoardDue to the lack of sufficient lecture room space, music classes are being taught in a large, arena styled performance space (the Choral Room). Currently there is only one small portable music-staffed white board in the room, which is insufficient for lecture style teaching, such as MUS 100. An additional portable white board is needed.4. Tuning Studio Rooms, Acoustic TreatmentsThe Building 10 Sound Studios A,B,C,D,E need to be treated to provide? a good sonic environment for digital music production, mixing and mastering.5. Sound Proofing/Acoustic Treatment in the Music Building?While music faculty and students are used to a certain amount of background sound and practicing, the levels in the music building are particularly high – to the point where it is hard to concentrate, practice or teach. This is especially a problem with combo rehearsals that require additional small spaces and make use of drum sets, amplified guitar, and bass. The music faculty recommends that the college consult with a sound abatement expert to create better sound control between existing rooms (lecture, practice, and office rooms) as well as create actual rehearsal spaces (as opposed to repurposed offices).NursingIn the coming years, the high fidelity simulation manikins will be obsolete and will need to be upgraded.?Other equipment that is needed includes the following items:Sim Junior manikinOne stretcher/gurneyOne current type of feeding pumpOne Alaris IV pump or another brand ?Other online codes or software licenses may be needed to promote effective use of simulation in the coming years.The desktop computer in the nursing skills lab storage area needs to be replacedThe multi-function printer-copier-scan-fax in the nursing program workroom needs to be replaced.The program will need updates of instructional materials, such as DVDs and/or online codes for simulation. The program will need to have funding for recurring cost items, such as warranties, fees, NCLEX program reports, background checks/drug screening for faculty. and fit testing for faculty and students.The program will need a variety of supplies to upgrade the inventory of the nursing skills lab.?PhilosophyXXPhotographyThe program will continue the need to purchase film cameras. New students entering the program don’t own film cameras. Our enrollments in the traditional classes are strong, and film based classes are a vital and important part the program.Instructional software including Adobe Lightroom, Photoshop and monitor calibration software. All will need to be updated on a regular basis.PhysicsScience programs will always have an ongoing need to replace laboratory equipment. ?Tablet computers for faculty are needed to expand web-assisted, hybrid and online offerings. ?Faculty tablets would also allow for posting problem solutions that can be “played” with audio and video.? The advantage over static solutions is that students can see and hear how the problem is set up and solved. ?An example (without proper captioning) is posted here? is a useful program for creating visuals and animations for use in the classroom.? Software licenses for instructor laptops and tablets would be beneficial for student learning.? Screen capture software would also be very useful for faculty to have copies of to supplement classroom presentations. ?To allow faculty to more quickly caption video (like the example in the previous section), Dragon Naturally Speaking licences are required.Political ScienceLaptop computers used by program faculty are more than 4 years old.? They need to be replaced.XPsychologyNo SubmissionReading-Document cameras in classrooms reading instructors use. (Note: We have been informed that these are forthcoming.)-Document camera and setup in backroom of Read/ESL CenterFor read courses in the Read/ESL Center (covered in the Read/ESL Program Review) a document camera, large monitor, and warehouse setup need to be installed in the back room for conferencing with reading students and faculty in RA meetings. This was submitted in the Read/ESL Center Program Review.Approx. $1,755.00 RequestedInstructional? Materials for use with students:How to Read A Book - 5 copies.Mentioned in Read/ESL Program Review:Reading Plus for 15 cost varies depending on if for 1 year or 3 years--$1755.00.Price mentioned herein is with a 10% discount$58.50/student/year of $117.00/3 yearsProfessional Materials:1 copy Reading Apprenticeship Books for new faculty.Real EstateNo SubmissionSocial ScienceEquipment and technology is discussed in each department's program review, refer to Anthropology, Economics, Ethnic Studies, Geography, History, Psychology, Political Science, Social Science, Sociology.Instructional materials are discussed in each department's program review, refer to Anthropology, Economics, Ethnic Studies, Geography, History, Psychology, Political Science, Social Science, Sociology.SociologyXXLearning Support CentersCommunication Studies Resource CenterXXCSM Learning CenterXInstructional Materials – In building a “reserve” of text books it is not always possible to get a copy donated by the publisher or instructor. It is necessary at times to purchase a copy of a particular textbook. Expanding our reserve may require this more frequently. Online tutoring also requires some additional materials such as a touch pad to interface with the online whiteboard. While not prohibitively expensive (approx. $200) if online tutoring expands it may be necessary to purchase a few more of these touch pads.Two of the LC's most visible programs are Supplemental Instruction and Pathway to College. It is problematic having only 1 person in the LC trained on the SI model and in how to train SI leaders. Sending one or two faculty or staff members to the training would provide better support for this growing program. Also, the Pathway to College program requires each student to have access to the ALEKS online math program. The cost of providing that access is approximately $1,000 per year.?Integrated Science CenterXXMath Resource Center2015: The Math department again requests a computer classroom, preferable adjacent to the MRC so that the classroom may become additional MRC space when not in use as a classroom.We understand that tracking of computer replacement is now in the hands of IT.? Below is the continuation of our previous record keeping:2015: ?The MRC 3 of the 4 MRC log-in computers are very old, often down, and need to be replaced.2016 - 2017: ?The existing 20 slim client computers will need to be replaced.Approx. $1,500.00 RequestedNo major changes are anticipated.? Funding is requested at the same level as in the previous year:? $1000/yr for textbook and solution manual needs, $500/year for calculator needs.Modern Languages CenterThe MLC has benefited from the move to Building 10 in regard to technology. The Learning Center a sufficient number of PCs/Macs which students can use to complete the majority of the assigned TBA activities. Additionally, there is a significant number of laptop computers that students may use to complete assigned and record conversation. In the future, the MLC would like to provide beginning and intermediate level students with the opportunity to rehearse and record digital video recordings of individual and group oral presentations. This will require greater coordination with COMM Studies, or the purchase and allocation of the necessary equipment, as well as dedicated MLC recording space. It is too soon to make a formal request for these items, as it larger depends on coordination of current resources, but it is import to note the future need in this report.The MLC? has numerous copies of textbooks currently used in the Spanish courses we offer, as well as various dictionaries and other modern language reference books. Additionally, the MLC has full access to all of the resources available through the Learning Center.Reading & ESL Center1 instructional aide computer(to replace the full-time instructional aide's old computer)34 student computers (32 replacement and two new)1 sign-in (front desk) computer1 document camera and related monitor/storage for work in back room for Read LOC courses and RA work with Read Dept and discipline facultyInstructional materials will need to continually updated and expanded as needed. Funding requests were submitted and approved by the division.No immediate need is expected for either the ESL Department or the Reading Department for now, with one exception. For Read Dept the computer licenses for Reading Plus are no longer being supported by the Ware Group. Thus "seat licenses" of 15 will need to be purchased. Cost per student is $65.00 per student per year (or $130/3 years). With a 10% discount cost is $58.50/student/year or $117/3 years.Writing Center & English 800 CenterIt is our understanding that the administration and IT will now determine which equipment needs to be replaced and that we no longer submit requests for replacement.? However, please note that we urgently need old computers to be replaced in the coming year.?XStudent ServicesAdmissions & RecordsStudent Services including Admissions and Records staff are most fortunate to be housed in a still relatively new facility (four years old) that is equipped with state-of-the-art equipment.? For the time being, existing equipment will continue to serve and support operational needs of staff.? However, in two to three?years computers and other technological equipment will be near the end of its life-cycle and will need to be replaced. The sobering reality is that all student services staff will encounter the need for technological equipment at about the same time. Thus, it is important that necessary forecasting and budgeting take place to recognize these future requirements.XAssessment CenterXXAssistive Technology CenterNo SubmissionCalWORKSReplacment computers in Bldg. 10 room 112XCareer CenterThe Career/Transfer Center needs a replacement computer for the one that was removed in 2014. ?

Scanning and later indexing files provides a more efficient process to be able to award students. We anticipate a growing need of high speed scanners.In addtition, we are in need of Increase of ?number of lap top computers for the Outreach Center to provide better services to students. The lap top computers we use to help students are very old and slow.? We know that we are lucky to have an extra space to share and provide services to students but since the financial aid population is growing, there will be a need for?a larger?space in which staff can?conduct financial aid and scholarship presentations.? ?As well, the space can provide staff an opportunity to?present workshops on?a variety of topics?including money management, loan default prevention, and satisfactory academic progress.XHealth Services CenterW have purchased the EMR and are learning how to use it.? Thank you!XInternational Students CenterWe are anticipating the implementation of a new international application (CCCapply or another platform), which will help expedite the processing the applications. Our staff will need training on new software when implemented.Our equipment needs presently include an additional work station computer for staff and student assistant use, a scanner for our eFile project (scanning of current paper documents into Banner), as well as an additional student work station for use by international students during registration and during the academic year for course work and printing.Our long-range plan is to have an additional work station space created in our hallway space with additional student work stations, much like the exterior of Admission and Records. Additional wiring, furniture, and computers would be required for this long-range project.We will begin drafting a plan for the development of an online orientation, which may include videos and possible tutorials for NEW students to complete prior to coming to the College. In addition, the International Education Program will be in development of training materials for professional development – the requirements for teaching materials have not yet been established.Multicultural CenterComputers may need to be replaced within the next two years.Would like to produce a Multicultural Center Folder.Psychological ServicesAn office computer needs to be replaced with new computer.I would like to request professional development funds to support the counseling internship program for our volunteer counselors. ?Since the grant will end in spring 2015, CSM Cares also needs funds to continue to provide in-services training/workshops to faculty/staff and students.?Student Life & Leadership DevelopmentEquipment and technology should be upgraded on a constant basis to provide for the most efficient utilization of staff time.XTransfer ServicesIf staff does increase in Transfer Services then additional laptops for presentations, workshops and off campus events would be a necessity.XVeterans ServicesDesk top computers- Existing computers should last for another 2-3 years but will eventually need to be replaced.All-in-one copy, printer, fax machine will need to be replaced.Three?laptop computers to meet expanding needThree?desktop printers are needed to fulfill printing needs.X ................
