Who prepared or published this supplemental material? Modesto Junior College Bookstore

Publish date 2019

Are any of the textbook editions cited on this proposal considered "Classics" (typically with a publish date more than 5 years old)? Yes No Unsure

If yes, explain why this older text is used in the course. Reasons should focus on content only.

Materials Fees v2

Is there a materials fee for this course?

cor-engr141.htm[2/25/2021 3:45:52 PM] Course Outline of Record Report

Yes

Provide a cost breakdown for all items provided for a materials fee. Each item must become "tangible personal property" of student upon payment of the fee and completion of the course.

# Item Qty Price Subtotal 1 Custom Built Electronics Kit 1 $30.00 $30.00 Total $30.00 Custom built electronics kit from Electronic School Supply includes - breadboard, resistor pack, jumper wire pack, inductors, capacitors, zener diodes, LEDs, op amps, & test leads

Explain how these materials are related to the Student Learning Objectives for the course. These kits will be used in order for the students to build, test, measure, and troubleshoot every circuit that is built in the lab component of the course. All of the course objectives for the lab are accomplished by building the circuits using these parts.

Explain how the materials have continuing value outside the classroom. Every component in the kit is still fully functional after the course and suitable for building circuit projects.

Is the amount of the material the student receives commensurate with the fee paid AND with the amount of material necessary to achieve the Student Learning Objectives for the course AND provided as the district's actual cost? Yes

If no is checked, explain why. No Value

If the district is NOT the only source of these materials, explain why the students have to pay a fee to the district rather than supply the materials themselves. (Cost savings? Health/Safety? Consistency/Uniformity?) This is a custom lab kit that is built to the instructor's specifications and includes a discount for bulk purchasing. The supplier does not sell directly to students.

If Other is selected for Methods of Instruction, please describe:

Use of online interactive simulations to provide alternatives to traditional labs for laboratory courses.

Describe how the methods of instruction selected above will allow students to meet the course’s learning outcomes:

The course information can be covered through in-person instruction that can be viewed simultaneously online. Lectures will also be recorded for asynchronous viewing. The instructor will use Canvas to administer assignments, reading materials, quizzes, and to archive recordings. Periodically, students will be required to attend lecture sessions (or view synchronously) for group assignments and problem solving, interactive demonstrations, and exams, which will provide summative and formative assessment. For the lab component, students will be required to be present. Based on data collected, students will be required to submit written lab reports in which they calculate quantities, interpret data, and analyze the results. For Online ECO: The course information can be covered asynchronously through recorded videos with closed captioning or through synchronous lectures using Zoom. The instructor will use Canvas to administer written assignments, reading materials, discussions, quizzes, exams, and interactive online simulations for summative and formative assessment. Discussions will be used in the online modality to provide a non-traditional assignment to provide equity for students. Field trips will be "virtual". Guest speakers will be via Zoom. For lab courses, students will submit weekly laboratory reports on Canvas using online interactive simulations to collect data, calculate quantities, interpret data, and analyze the results.

Describe how the methods selected will be presented in an accessible way (Title 5 §55206). For information about accessibility standards in online classes, see the OEI Rubric, Section D (Copy this link and paste in a separate browser to visit OEI Rubric: https://onlinenetworkofeducators.org/course-design-academy/online-course-rubric/)

Heading styles will be used in Canvas and other documents to make navigation of Canvas easy for students and accessible for screen readers. Lists will use the bullet tool instead of being developed manually, images will have robust captions, tables will be formatted according to accessibility, and hyperlinks will be defined properly. The accessibility checker will be used in Canvas to make sure all these standards are met. Instructors will make sure videos have closed captions that are high quality, consistent, and meet the needs of deaf and hard of hearing audiences.

Regular and Effective Contact (REC) Methods and Examples: Select the methods below that ensure regular effective contact (REC) will take place among students and among students and faculty (Title 5 §55204) by being initiated by the instructor, regular and frequent, and meaningful or of an academic nature.
