GENERAL EDUCATION VALUESGeneral education is central to Northland Pioneer College's purposes, its definition and its academic commitments. Through a general education program, the College commits students and faculty to the pursuit of comprehensiveness in learning – to seeing the relationship of special interests to the larger academic and cultural contexts which we share. It offers vantage points from which to sharpen our awareness of the development of our own culture and its relatedness to others. The search for an integrated understanding requires a general desire to learn, an energetic interest in the world and a willingness to put ourselves in the place of those whose beliefs and outlooks are different from our own. A general education program, pursued by curious and empathic faculty and students, provides a structure in which the accumulation of knowledge and the practice of disciplined, independent thinking can grow into comprehensive understanding, appreciation and reasoned value.An effective general education program requires the exercise of thoughtful and precise writing, critical reading, quantitative thinking and processes of analysis and synthesis which underlie valid reasoning. Therefore, students must have a solid foundation in writing, reading, mathematics and critical thinking.Studies in the traditional academic disciplines are built upon foundation skills in thought and communication, and lead students to grasp the conceptual frameworks that govern different fields of study. Such courses demonstrate that the study of specialized subject matter in any of the traditional knowledge areas – Arts and Humanities, Mathematics, Physical and Biological Sciences, Social and Behavioral Sciences – is critical to the central dialogues of general education.General education studies focus on the conceptual frameworks through which a thinker, a culture, or an academic discipline may approach an issue. We discover both the ordering power and the potential limitations of the fundamental models of understanding that have shaped our thinking throughout the history of civilization. We acknowledge the dependence of thought upon these models, judge them through comparison with alternative models from other thinkers and cultures, and yet are able to continue to participate with active, discerning commitment in the political, ethical and aesthetic life of the community.The purpose of general education is to give each student pursuing an undergraduate degree the fundamental skills and the familiarity with various branches of knowledge which are associated with college and university education and the cultivation necessary for a lifetime of learning, problem solving and responsible, humane action.

ASSESSMENT AT NPC: FACULTY AND STUDENT ROLES

Northland adheres to “the following published definition of assessment as drafted by the Director of the Assessment Forum at the American Association for Higher Education and refined by educators across the nation: (NCA Staff Paper, 1996)”

Assessment is an ongoing process aimed at understanding and improving student learning. It involves making our expectations explicit and public; setting appropriate criteria and high standards for learning quality; systematically gathering, analyzing and interpreting evidence to determine how well performance matches those expectations and standards; and using the resulting information to document, explain and improve performance. When it is embedded effectively within larger institutional systems, assessment can help us focus our collective attention, examine our assumptions and create a shared

4

academic culture dedicated to assuring and improving the quality of higher education (AAHE Bulletin, November, 1995, p. 7).

The principle of assessment, and use of assessment feedback for measuring and improving overall student academic achievement and institutional effectiveness, is an integral part of Northland. Assessment of Student Academic Achievement applies to all five major academic related missions of Northland: General Education, Transfer Preparation Education, Basic Skills/Developmental Education, Customized Education, and Personal Interest Education. Assessment is integral to the matching of instructional resources to the diversity of student academic needs in a manner that is accountable to all stakeholders.

FACULTY ROLEAssessment of Student Academic Achievement includes the extent to which each instructional academic unit (department, etc.) actually contributes to the incremental learning of its students in:

1. Cognitive Learning (Knowledge Acquisition);2. Behavioral Learning (Skill Acquisition); and3. Affective Learning (Attitudinal Development).

Hence, over time each academic unit is expected to measure its performance in facilitating Student Academic Achievement in these areas. Each academic unit's faculty helps collect assessment data through faculty-directed student activities designed to enhance learning.STUDENT ROLEStudents at Northland are expected to take an active role in their acquisition of knowledge, skill and attitude. This includes the student's responsibility in acting upon appropriate:

1. Academic guidance with respect to course and program enrollment;2. Regular participation in faculty-structured learning activities including

attendance at scheduled times;3. Completion of assignments in a timely manner; and4. Serious preparation for and completion of learning AND assessment activities

including essays, papers and examinations.Specifically, over the length of a course or program Northland instructional units will collect samples of students' work across the College district, for use in assessment of collective student academic achievement. Such collected samples of students' work generally will be from selected course work required to complete a program or degree, or representative of work done up to a predetermined point along the way to program or degree completion. Similarly, students and alumni may also be asked to complete surveys reflecting aspects of student academic achievement related to their programs.Student work submitted by faculty for assessment of student academic achievement across time and district will be reviewed anonymously. However, students are still expected to do their best, whether the work selected was used by the faculty toward a course grade and/or by the academic units as a broader assessment of Northland students' academic achievement.

Degree and Certificate ProgramsASSOCIATE OF ARTS, ASSOCIATE OF ARTS IN ELEMENTARY

EDUCATION, ASSOCIATE OF BUSINESS AND ASSOCIATE OF SCIENCE DEGREE REQUIREMENTS

The Associate of Arts, Associate of Arts in Elementary Education, Associate of Business, and Associate of Science degrees require a minimum of 64 hours of course credits to complete, with a grade of 'C' or better in all courses and a cumulative grade point average of 2.0 on a 4.0 scale. Additionally, some of these courses have placement or course prerequisites that must be fulfilled. Completion of these prerequisites may result in coursework beyond 64 credits.For courses that do have prerequisites or require satisfactory placement, a grade of 'C' or better is required in the prerequisite courses. [For prerequisite purposes only, a ‘P’ (passing) grade is the equivalent of a ‘C’ grade.] More information about course prerequisites may be found in Part V, Course Descriptions, that lists individual courses, or by consulting an Academic Advisor.Graduates must complete at least 35-36 credits of general education options as listed for the specific degree. These must include 6 credits in English composition, 3-4 credits in Mathematics, 9 credits from the Arts and Humanities, 8 credits from the Natural Sciences, and 9 credits from the Social and Behavioral Sciences. An additional 28-29 credits should be chosen carefully based on lower division and common course requirements for majors at the college or university to which the student plans to transfer.In most Northland general education courses, special emphasis is placed upon developing written communication skills with intensive writing requirements embedded within each. Race and ethnic issue awareness is also embedded throughout the general education requirements of the Arts/Humanities, Social/Behavioral Sciences, and Physical/Biological Sciences. Specific courses, as noted in the degrees, meet the requirement for Contemporary Global/International or Historical Awareness.All courses included in these degrees must transfer to the three Arizona public universities as direct equivalents, departmental elective credits, or general elective credits. Students planning to transfer to a four-year college or university are advised to work with NPC Academic Advisors to facilitate a smooth and efficient transfer process. Access to information about degrees and pathways, common courses, Course Equivalency Guides, transfer guides and Arizona college and university catalogs is available through an Academic Advisor or directly on the Internet at www.az.transfer.org/cas.TRANSFER DEGREE PROGRAMS

The Associate of Arts (AA), The Associate of Arts in Elementary Education (AAEE), the Associate of Business (ABus), and the Associate of Science (AS) degrees are designed for students intending to transfer into four-year college or university programs. The general education requirements of these degrees are especially designed to transfer to Arizona’s public universities, fulfilling their lower division general education requirements.APPLIED SCIENCE DEGREE AND CERTIFICATE PROGRAMS

6

Associate of Applied Science degrees (AAS) are awarded at the completion of programs designed to prepare graduates for employment. Certificates of Applied Science (CAS) are awarded upon completion of specific program courses designed for employment skills. Certificates of Proficiency (CP) are awarded for some shorter programs with a narrow focus to prepare students for specific employment-related skills. Certificates of Completion (CRT) are awarded for the fulfillment of competency requirements in certain occupation-specific courses.Although many courses within these programs may transfer to four-year colleges and universities, students should not assume that all courses do.The terms below are used in the degree program descriptions in the pages that follow:

General Education Requirements: Courses, typically Math, English and others, from a predetermined list of discipline studies (page 51) that provide students with a broad knowledge base.

Core Requirements: Courses specifically selected to educate the student in the essential knowledge of the individual program.

Required Electives Courses specifically selected to supplement and expand the student's knowledge base in the individual program.

Unrestricted Electives: Any unduplicated course(s) at the 100 or higher level that the student may wish to select.GENERAL STUDIES DEGREE PROGRAMS

The Associate of General Studies degree (AGS) is intended for non-majors seeking greater flexibility in planning their education.The Associate of General Studies degrees in Early Childhood and Special Needs Educational Assistant provide a student the flexibility of meeting work-related course mandates while also pursuing general education courses that may serve as the foundation for a bachelor’s degree.Although many courses within these programs may transfer to four-year colleges and universities, students should not assume that all courses do.

NURSING

The Nursing Programs include: Nursing Assistant TrainingPractical NursingLPN-RN TransitionRegistered Nursing

These programs prepare students to make application to take the certified nursing assistant exam; the National Council Licensing Examination for practical (NCLEX-PN) and/ or registered nursing (NCLEX-RN). Successful completion of the certifying exam will allow for beginning employment in providing direct patient care. Admission to or

64

graduation from the program at any level does not guarantee licensure by the Arizona State Board of Nursing.

Graduates must satisfy the licensing requirements of the State Board of Nursing independently of any college requirements per the Arizona Nurse Practice Act. Under Arizona Law an applicant could be denied certification as a nursing assistant or licensure as a registered or practical nurse if convicted of a felony or addicted to habit-forming drugs or if the applicant in any other way fails to meet qualifications required by law.

In 1997, the Nursing Program became part of the Healing Community composed of five rural community colleges and Northern Arizona University that work together on a collaborative basis. The Healing Community designed a common curriculum that provides students an opportunity for seamless articulation from the associate degree in nursing programs to the baccalaureate degree in nursing program. The PN and RN graduate from the Nursing Program applies to write the NCLEX. When he or she becomes a licensed RN nurse, that person can apply to Northern Arizona University to complete the upper division courses in nursing that apply to a B.S.N.

Northland Pioneer College’s Nursing Program, approved by the Arizona State Board of Nursing, is offered on the White Mountain Campus at Show low and the Little Colorado Campus at Winslow. Many of the prerequisites and general education courses are available at other NPC campuses and centers. The program of 66-67 credit hours is designed for two academic years of full-time study. After completion of the first year with the addition of the Practical Nurse Completion course, the student nurse can receive a Certificate of Applied Science in Practical Nursing and apply to write the NCLEX-PN. The student nurse may then exit the program or continue on to earn the Associate of Applied Science Degree.

For the student who is a Licensed Practical Nurse who would like to return to school for the associate degree and become a Registered Nurse, there are the same requirements for the associate degree as the regular program. Students are admitted in the spring semester and will take a LPN to RN transition course as well as needed prerequisites prior to starting the two semesters of nursing courses needed to complete the RN. After completion the student will be eligible to take the National Council Licensing Examination for Registered Nursing (NCLEX-RN).

STUDENT NURSE GUIDELINES:

Patient safety dictates that specific nursing program student guidelines apply to this program that are more stringent than the general College student policies. A copy of the nursing program student handbook is issued to students admitted to the program. In case of state-mandated changes, curriculum and/or guidelines could change.

Clinical experiences take place in various health care agencies in and outside the College’s district. Hours may vary from the class schedule depending on the clinical

65

placement and travel will be required at times. In addition, overnight stays may be required.

PREREQUISITES TO PROGRAM ADMISSION

Courses:

Before the student will be considered eligible to enter the nursing program, certain prerequisites must be met. Successful completion with a “C” grade or better for each class and a cumulative GPA of “B” (3.00) is required.

BIO 201 Human Anatomy & Physiology I 4 cr.BIO 202 Human Anatomy & Physiology II 4 cr.CHM 130 Fundamental Chemistry 4 cr.ENL 101 College Composition I 3 cr.HES 145 Nutrition 3 cr.MAT (Choice of one: 112, 121, 142, or 152) 3-4 cr.

Certification:

For the Nursing Program an applicant must submit a copy of a current Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) license to the Nursing Program.

For the LPN to RN program a current LPN license must be submitted to the Nursing Program.

ADMISSION TO THE NURSING PROGRAM

Note: Admission to the College does not guarantee admission to the Nursing Program.

Students must be admitted to the Nursing Program in order to enroll in nursing courses. (Admission information is available in the academic advising and the Nursing Program areas.)

Completed nursing application must be submitted on or before the designated deadline that is noted in the application packet.

Four out of the six prerequisite courses must be completed by the end of the spring semester. All prerequisite courses must be completed prior to the fall semester of admission to the program.

Admission Selection:An Admission Committee composed of the Dean of Nursing, two nursing faculty, a representative of Student Services, as well as academic advisors, and faculty-at-large makes the selection for admission to the program from the pool of qualified applicants.

Admission criteria will include: Nursing Entrance Test (NET) percentages, prerequisite GPA, overall GPA, letters of recommendation,

66

applicant statement, and faculty or advisor recommendations. The factors will be weighted by the committee. Significant weight will be given to NET composite percentage and prerequisites GPA. Admission may be contingent upon completion of the final prerequisites by the end of the summer semester.

General Education and core requirements must be completed prior to or in the sequential order as listed on the curriculum outline in the program admission information packet.

College credits over eight (8) years old may be acceptable. For a determination, provide appropriate documentation to the Dean of Nursing.

Transfer students for second, third or fourth semesters are considered on an individual basis. Criteria include course comparables, GPA, specified examination results, and recommendation from previous program director.
