ECC: ARCH 150A:Architectural Drafting I SLO #1 Lines and Lettering - Upon completion of a beginning course of study in architecture drawing, a student will develop an architectural drawing technique of Lines and Lettering to create a series of drawings. Course SLO Assessment Cycle: 2014-15 (Fall 2014), 2016-17 (Fall 2016), 2017-18 (Fall Project - The beginning architecture student was able to achieve success in developing drawing techniques A success rate was expected and achieved by 95% of the students A success rate of a minimum C grade was expected and achieved by 90%-95% of the students, and an A grade was achieved by 30%. (03/01/2018) % of Success for this SLO: 95 Action: With the creation of a sequenced and blocked schedule, these techniques will being taught in the first year, first semester graphics class (03/01/2019) Action Category: Curriculum Changes SLO #2 Graphic Instructions - Successful students, completing the Architecture Program, following instructions, supervised classroom practice using CADD System; will use proper graphic techniques to complete instructions. Course SLO Assessment Cycle: 2017-18 (Fall Project - Lecture and Laboratory instruction for use of AutoCAD to create computer generated drawings for Construction Documents. Students have successfully built a model of the house that represents the class project. The model is based on computer generated drawings. The student also learns engineering concepts of vertical and lateral design while building the model. A success rate of a B or C grade was expected and achieved by 90%-95% of the students, and an A grade was achieved by 15%. The results showed the continuing technical development of the beginning architectural student. (03/01/2018) % of Success for this SLO: 90 Action: With the creation of a sequenced and blocked schedule, these computer techniques will being taught in the first year, first semester graphics class (03/01/2019) Action Category: Curriculum Changes A success rate of a minimum C grade was expected and achieved by 90%- 95% of the students, and an A grade was achieved by 30%. This is the first time a construction document I section was offered the AutoCAD instruction. The results were more compelling expected. 01/24/2019 Generated by Nuventive Improve Page 4 of 6
ECC: ARCH 158:Structures Analysis-Timber SLO #1 Beams and Lateral Bracing - Given lecture information, handouts and in-class discussion, students will be able to demonstrate the knowledge of the function of structural components in residential buildings. Students will be able to calculate the size of beams, columns and lateral bracing systems of light framed wood structures. Course SLO Assessment Cycle: 2014-15 (Fall 2014), 2016-17 (Fall 2016), 2017-18 (Fall Exam/Test/Quiz - Students are given a 25 question multiple-choice exam. Based on results of the exam, it is expected that 85% of the students will score 75% or above. Students need to improve math skills in order to have greater success in this engineering information class. The students have met the expected performance standard. At this time, as a department, we plan to continue using this exam and we will continue to monitor test scores. (03/15/2018) % of Success for this SLO: Action: Students need stronger math skills. Prerequisites are perhaps needed to correct this issue. At this time we plan to continue using the exam and continue to monitor test scores. (03/15/2019) SLO #2 Graphic Techniques - Successful students, completing the Architecture Program, following instructions, supervised classroom practice using CADD system; will use proper graphic techniques to complete instructions. Course SLO Assessment Cycle: 2017-18 (Fall Laboratory Project/Report - Students will use the Cadd software to create Beam Sizing Charts based on data they got when they did calculations. We expect 100% of the students to be able to do this process to print out charts for Beam sizing. The charts will facilitate architects and engineers in sizing beams for building loads. The Data the students downloaded into the AutoCAD software was checked off by the instructor after they accomplished that. The structural calculations were checked by the instructor as well. (03/15/2018) % of Success for this SLO: 100 Faculty Assessment Leader: Bruce Cook Mike Stallings Action: Although not much is needed to improve performance on this SLO, improved ability to perform mathematical calculations when coming in to the class would be beneficial.

ECC: ARCH 171:Architectural Three-Dimensional Illustration SLO #2 Graphic Techniques - Successful students, completing the Architecture Program, following instructions, supervised classroom practice using CADD system; will use proper graphic techniques to complete instructions. Course SLO Assessment Cycle: 2017-18 (Fall Presentation/Skill Demonstration - Students will draw, manually on paper and on a Computer Aided Design software three dimensional drawings and then delineate them with tones and textures to provide enough contrast to be able to see the design. Students who draw three dimensional drawings and delineate it with tones and have entourage (people, cars, etc.) incorporated in the drawings will receive a grade of 4; Students who draw the three dimensional drawings add tones but do not have entourage will receive a grade of 3; Students who draw the three dimensional drawings but add no tones or entourage will receive a grade of 2; Students who draw three dimensional drawings and only get part of the drawing complete with no entourage, tones or titles will receive a grade of 1. 80% of the class will get 3s and 4s. Of the 16 students enrolled in the class, over half, (9 students) received an A grade and scored 4 on all drawings. 4 students received a grade of B and scored 3 and 3 students received a grade of C and scored 2 on their assignments. (03/01/2018) % of Success for this SLO: 81 Faculty Assessment Leader: Michael Stallings Action: In analyzing my results, I feel the assignments need to be simplified somewhat, without sacrificing the intent of learning the procedure to draw the drawing out, so more students can finish during the time allotted for the various drawings.
