Project Summary:
Unless specified, all grantees must respond to all questions.
Fund for Student Success, Institutionalization
grantees will answer questions 1A through 1D, while Planning
grantees will answer only questions 1A through 1C.
These are essentially the “status” questions for your
project. For
institutionalization projects, answers to questions 1B through 1D will
be used to assess the gains that have been made to date to assure that
the project will become permanent and self-supporting. 2)

Objective Report form:
This page must be completed for each objective.
If an objective/ activity will not be completed by the specified
objective date, please provide comments that clarify the reasons for the
delay. 3)

Approved Budget: This is
the state’s portion of your total project funds; Project
Funds Expended: These
are your expenditures to date; District
Match Funds Expended: Identify
the amount of local funds provided to the project by the district; Other Source: Use these

View FSS final project at FSS - Research Guides As stated in objective #1, "100% of full-time faculty will be made aware of the information competency component in the college’s new GE package. This objective has been implemented in the curriculum approval/recertification process. The Curriculum Committee continues to re-certify all courses for General Education status. Staff development -individual flex activities were offered during the Spring 2000 semester through June 2002 as an incentive to faculty to develop an information competency module with the Project Director. The Project Director continually revises and maintains each Research Guide to the satisfaction of the faculty and students. As stated in objective #2, 80% of faculty completing the "Using the Web" in-service each year will integrate information competency into their curriculum as evidenced by revised course outlines and teaching strategies. This grant has given me the time needed to educate faculty on the benefits of integrating information competency into their classes. The Project Director met regularly with faculty to discuss the current trends in their academic disciplines. Once the Project Director developed a good understanding of the course content and discipline, the Project Director created the information competency website. The process of developing the Web-based instructional modules involved the following activities:
The
websites are linked directly to faculty The Project Director must mention that the development of the Web-based modules involved a great deal of trial and error. Problems arose in translating this grant vision into a viable Web document. The ongoing work of web maintenance goes beyond web-design, The entire website demanded constant changes such as 1) setting up the initial page layout, 2) revising the website format and appeal, 3) even discarding already completed parts and 4) updating all individual links. During the
second year of the Grant, the Library undertook a major web-design
overhaul. A whole new look to the Library Any library information model is a dynamic web-site. Unlike some pages on the college site, the library information competency infusion model will always be undergoing structural change. An instructor’s syllabus might change from one semester to the next, so the librarian-content designer has to update all information competency modules by continuing to add new points of access, reformatting web layout, and redesigning appropriate visuals. The process
of continual revision continues in spite of the lack of web support.
Campus-wide web design support is limited at In spite of
the labor intensive work needed to maintain a professional looking
website, the Project Director continued to work with individual faculty
to develop course-specific research websites to be integrated into 75
courses. The current Research Guide homepage will only show active and
most current faculty assignments. Over the past three years, some of the
research guides have been deleted due to retiring faculty and loss of
adjunct faculty. Over the past three years, faculty have changed their
assignments, so the Project Director has had to revise the existing
Research Guides to stay current with the new teaching assignments. B.
