enrollment in 2016-17 The trend is due in part to offering fewer classes for a multitude of reasons 1) we no longer offer a su mmer school course 2) we dont routinely offer a section at North County 3) one of our longtime adjunct instructors is unable to teach two to three courses a semester and only teaches one and 4) an adjunct instructor gave short notice that she w as unable to teach and we were unable to staff the class

Assessment activities dont need to occur every semester
All courses degrees and programs do need to be assessed on a regular cycle
C Have you completed all course assessments in eLumen If no explain why you were unable to do so during this program review cycle and what plan(s) exist for completing this in the next program review cycle
Yes all courses on the above Program Assessment Cycle Calendar have been assessed
D Include the most recent PLO Summary Map by Course from eLumen which shows the Course-level SLOs mapped to the Program-level SLOs
See attached
E Highlight changes made at the course or program level that have resulted from SLO assessment

Identify create or critique key elements of inspirational art forms
Demonstrate knowledge of and sensitivity to diverse groups and cultures through studying the worlds languages societies and histories
C Program outcomes The Anthropology Program has the following outcomes
1 Prepare students with the knowledge and skills required to succeed in the study of anthropology
2 Provide students with the skills for critical thinking and perceptive reading 3 Provide students with the skills for anthropological analysis
Indicate any anticipated changes in the following areas
A Curriculum and scheduling There are no anticipated changes B Support services to promote success persistence and retention
Lise Mifsud participated in the first annual Cougar Welcome Days This event welcomes students and their parents to our College This was a great event where prespective students learned about a career in anthropology Lise Mifsud presented at the last three Cuesta College Promise events Hundreds of students came to our big lecture hall to hear about the Social Sciences A table was also setup for this event with primate skulls fossil casts and real reptile and mammal skulls for comparison
In addition an embedded tutor is utilized for three sections of Physical Anthropology lecture For the previous four semesters students have increased their success because of our expert student tutor Kailey Schwabenland She will transfer at the end of this semester and another tutor is scheduled to take her place
C Facilities needs A dedicated lab for ANTH 201L would be a welcomed addition Students currently have a room to use for studying but a lab with a sink and better lighting would be amazing(
D Staffing needsprojections Our current adjunct faculty are sufficient for our current course offerings However a part-time pool could be needed at a future date Our one full-time faculty member is responsible for curriculum development assessment outreach program review student support (letter of recommendation etc) and instruction for five different preps Restoring funds to employ a reader would alleviate out of pocket costs for lab assistant
Lastly address any changes in strategy in response to the predicted budget and FTES target for the next program review cycle
The Anthropology program will continue to offer alternating classes distance education classes classes at both campuses and summer school classes to meet student demand

Notes for developing the calendar
Start with realistic goals The assessment cycle calendar should have reachable timelines
considering faculty workload classroom time needed for assessment and the inevitable adjustments and improvements in assessment tools and methodology
Not all SLOs have to be assessed every semester
Assessment activities dont need to occur every semester
All courses degrees and programs do need to be assessed on a regular cycle
C Have you completed all course assessments in eLumen If no explain why you were unable to do so during this program review cycle and what plan(s) exist for completing this in the next program review cycle
Yes all courses on the above Program Assessment Cycle Calendar have been assessed
D Include the most recent PLO Summary Map by Course from eLumen which shows the Course-level SLOs mapped to the Program-level SLOs
See attached
E Highlight changes made at the course or program level that have resulted from SLO assessment
1 SLO assessment shows that an early alert system would benefit students In Fall 2018 Canvas gradesheet is used in all Anthropology courses Students are able to get feedback on course progress and calculate their grade to track perfermance In addition three sections of Physical Anthropology have an embedded tutor

C Program outcomes The Anthropology Program has the following outcomes
1 Prepare students with the knowledge and skills required to succeed in the study of anthropology
2 Provide students with the skills for critical thinking and perceptive reading 3 Provide students with the skills for anthropological analysis
Indicate any anticipated changes in the following areas
A Curriculum and scheduling There are no anticipated changes B Support services to promote success persistence and retention
Lise Mifsud participated in the first annual Cougar Welcome Days This event welcomes students and their parents to our College This was a great event where prespective students learned about a career in anthropology Lise Mifsud presented at the last three Cuesta College Promise events Hundreds of students came to our big lecture hall to hear about the Social Sciences A table was also setup for this event with primate skulls fossil casts and real reptile and mammal skulls for comparison
In addition an embedded tutor is utilized for three sections of Physical Anthropology lecture For the previous four semesters students have increased their success because of our expert student tutor Kailey Schwabenland She will transfer at the end of this semester and another tutor is scheduled to take her place
C Facilities needs A dedicated lab for ANTH 201L would be a welcomed addition Students currently have a room to use for studying but a lab with a sink and better lighting would be amazing(
D Staffing needsprojections Our current adjunct faculty are sufficient for our current course offerings However a part-time pool could be needed at a future date Our one full-time faculty member is responsible for curriculum development assessment outreach program review student support (letter of recommendation etc) and instruction for five different preps Restoring funds to employ a reader would alleviate out of pocket costs for lab assistant
Lastly address any changes in strategy in response to the predicted budget and FTES target for the next program review cycle
The Anthropology program will continue to offer alternating classes distance education classes classes at both campuses and summer school classes to meet student demand

enrollment in 2016-17 The trend is due in part to offering fewer classes for a multitude of reasons 1) we no longer offer a su mmer school course 2) we dont routinely offer a section at North County 3) one of our longtime adjunct instructors is unable to teach two to three courses a semester and only teaches one and 4) an adjunct instructor gave short notice that she w as unable to teach and we were unable to staff the class

Notes for developing the calendar
Start with realistic goals The assessment cycle calendar should have reachable timelines
considering faculty workload classroom time needed for assessment and the inevitable adjustments and improvements in assessment tools and methodology
Not all SLOs have to be assessed every semester
Assessment activities dont need to occur every semester
All courses degrees and programs do need to be assessed on a regular cycle
C Have you completed all course assessments in eLumen If no explain why you were unable to do so during this program review cycle and what plan(s) exist for completing this in the next program review cycle
Yes all courses on the above Program Assessment Cycle Calendar have been assessed
D Include the most recent PLO Summary Map by Course from eLumen which shows the Course-level SLOs mapped to the Program-level SLOs
See attached
E Highlight changes made at the course or program level that have resulted from SLO assessment
1 SLO assessment shows that an early alert system would benefit students In Fall 2018 Canvas gradesheet is used in all Anthropology courses Students are able to get feedback on course progress and calculate their grade to track perfermance In addition three sections of Physical Anthropology have an embedded tutor

Identify create or critique key elements of inspirational art forms
Demonstrate knowledge of and sensitivity to diverse groups and cultures through studying the worlds languages societies and histories
C Program outcomes The Anthropology Program has the following outcomes
1 Prepare students with the knowledge and skills required to succeed in the study of anthropology
2 Provide students with the skills for critical thinking and perceptive reading 3 Provide students with the skills for anthropological analysis
Indicate any anticipated changes in the following areas
A Curriculum and scheduling There are no anticipated changes B Support services to promote success persistence and retention
Lise Mifsud participated in the first annual Cougar Welcome Days This event welcomes students and their parents to our College This was a great event where prespective students learned about a career in anthropology Lise Mifsud presented at the last three Cuesta College Promise events Hundreds of students came to our big lecture hall to hear about the Social Sciences A table was also setup for this event with primate skulls fossil casts and real reptile and mammal skulls for comparison
In addition an embedded tutor is utilized for three sections of Physical Anthropology lecture For the previous four semesters students have increased their success because of our expert student tutor Kailey Schwabenland She will transfer at the end of this semester and another tutor is scheduled to take her place
C Facilities needs A dedicated lab for ANTH 201L would be a welcomed addition Students currently have a room to use for studying but a lab with a sink and better lighting would be amazing(
D Staffing needsprojections Our current adjunct faculty are sufficient for our current course offerings However a part-time pool could be needed at a future date Our one full-time faculty member is responsible for curriculum development assessment outreach program review student support (letter of recommendation etc) and instruction for five different preps Restoring funds to employ a reader would alleviate out of pocket costs for lab assistant
Lastly address any changes in strategy in response to the predicted budget and FTES target for the next program review cycle
The Anthropology program will continue to offer alternating classes distance education classes classes at both campuses and summer school classes to meet student demand

enrollment in 2016-17 The trend is due in part to offering fewer classes for a multitude of reasons 1) we no longer offer a su mmer school course 2) we dont routinely offer a section at North County 3) one of our longtime adjunct instructors is unable to teach two to three courses a semester and only teaches one and 4) an adjunct instructor gave short notice that she w as unable to teach and we were unable to staff the class

considering faculty workload classroom time needed for assessment and the inevitable adjustments and improvements in assessment tools and methodology
Not all SLOs have to be assessed every semester
Assessment activities dont need to occur every semester
All courses degrees and programs do need to be assessed on a regular cycle
C Have you completed all course assessments in eLumen If no explain why you were unable to do so during this program review cycle and what plan(s) exist for completing this in the next program review cycle
Yes all courses on the above Program Assessment Cycle Calendar have been assessed

1 Prepare students with the knowledge and skills required to succeed in the study of anthropology
2 Provide students with the skills for critical thinking and perceptive reading 3 Provide students with the skills for anthropological analysis
Indicate any anticipated changes in the following areas
A Curriculum and scheduling There are no anticipated changes B Support services to promote success persistence and retention
Lise Mifsud participated in the first annual Cougar Welcome Days This event welcomes students and their parents to our College This was a great event where prespective students learned about a career in anthropology Lise Mifsud presented at the last three Cuesta College Promise events Hundreds of students came to our big lecture hall to hear about the Social Sciences A table was also setup for this event with primate skulls fossil casts and real reptile and mammal skulls for comparison
In addition an embedded tutor is utilized for three sections of Physical Anthropology lecture For the previous four semesters students have increased their success because of our expert student tutor Kailey Schwabenland She will transfer at the end of this semester and another tutor is scheduled to take her place
C Facilities needs A dedicated lab for ANTH 201L would be a welcomed addition Students currently have a room to use for studying but a lab with a sink and better lighting would be amazing(
D Staffing needsprojections Our current adjunct faculty are sufficient for our current course offerings However a part-time pool could be needed at a future date Our one full-time faculty member is responsible for curriculum development assessment outreach program review student support (letter of recommendation etc) and instruction for five different preps Restoring funds to employ a reader would alleviate out of pocket costs for lab assistant
Lastly address any changes in strategy in response to the predicted budget and FTES target for the next program review cycle
The Anthropology program will continue to offer alternating classes distance education classes classes at both campuses and summer school classes to meet student demand

enrollment in 2016-17 The trend is due in part to offering fewer classes for a multitude of reasons 1) we no longer offer a su mmer school course 2) we dont routinely offer a section at North County 3) one of our longtime adjunct instructors is unable to teach two to three courses a semester and only teaches one and 4) an adjunct instructor gave short notice that she w as unable to teach and we were unable to staff the class

Notes for developing the calendar
Start with realistic goals The assessment cycle calendar should have reachable timelines
considering faculty workload classroom time needed for assessment and the inevitable adjustments and improvements in assessment tools and methodology
Not all SLOs have to be assessed every semester
Assessment activities dont need to occur every semester
All courses degrees and programs do need to be assessed on a regular cycle
C Have you completed all course assessments in eLumen If no explain why you were unable to do so during this program review cycle and what plan(s) exist for completing this in the next program review cycle
Yes all courses on the above Program Assessment Cycle Calendar have been assessed
D Include the most recent PLO Summary Map by Course from eLumen which shows the Course-level SLOs mapped to the Program-level SLOs
See attached
E Highlight changes made at the course or program level that have resulted from SLO assessment
1 SLO assessment shows that an early alert system would benefit students In Fall 2018 Canvas gradesheet is used in all Anthropology courses Students are able to get feedback on course progress and calculate their grade to track perfermance In addition three sections of Physical Anthropology have an embedded tutor

A Institutional Goals and Objectives
The Anthropology Program connects to the Colleges goals and objectives in the following ways
Anthropology courses help to provide students a strong social science background Anthropology courses can be used to fulfill General Education requirements and for those students that will major in anthropology at four-year institutions our courses will provide a solid lower-division foundation for success
1 The Anthropology Program directly connects to the Colleges mission of developing critical thinking skills-developing critical thinking is an explicit part of one of the Anthropology Program Goals
2 The Anthropology Program helps to fulfill the Colleges mission of helping students to learn to appreciate the culture of all peoples in a diverse society
B Institutional Learning Outcomes 1 Personal Academic and Professional Development 2 Critical Thinking and Communication 3 Scientific and Environmental Understanding 4 Social Historical and Global Knowledge and Engagement 5 Artistic and Cultural Knowledge and Engagement 6 Technological and Informational Fluency
Anthropology courses are tied to a specific Institutional Learning Outcome (ILO) as listed below ILO 3 Scientific and Environmental Understanding ANTH 201 ANTHR 201L Draw conclusions based on the scientific method computations or experimental and observational evidence

Identify create or critique key elements of inspirational art forms
Demonstrate knowledge of and sensitivity to diverse groups and cultures through studying the worlds languages societies and histories
C Program outcomes The Anthropology Program has the following outcomes
1 Prepare students with the knowledge and skills required to succeed in the study of anthropology
2 Provide students with the skills for critical thinking and perceptive reading 3 Provide students with the skills for anthropological analysis
Indicate any anticipated changes in the following areas
A Curriculum and scheduling There are no anticipated changes B Support services to promote success persistence and retention
Lise Mifsud participated in the first annual Cougar Welcome Days This event welcomes students and their parents to our College This was a great event where prespective students learned about a career in anthropology Lise Mifsud presented at the last three Cuesta College Promise events Hundreds of students came to our big lecture hall to hear about the Social Sciences A table was also setup for this event with primate skulls fossil casts and real reptile and mammal skulls for comparison
In addition an embedded tutor is utilized for three sections of Physical Anthropology lecture For the previous four semesters students have increased their success because of our expert student tutor Kailey Schwabenland She will transfer at the end of this semester and another tutor is scheduled to take her place
C Facilities needs A dedicated lab for ANTH 201L would be a welcomed addition Students currently have a room to use for studying but a lab with a sink and better lighting would be amazing(
D Staffing needsprojections Our current adjunct faculty are sufficient for our current course offerings However a part-time pool could be needed at a future date Our one full-time faculty member is responsible for curriculum development assessment outreach program review student support (letter of recommendation etc) and instruction for five different preps Restoring funds to employ a reader would alleviate out of pocket costs for lab assistant
Lastly address any changes in strategy in response to the predicted budget and FTES target for the next program review cycle
The Anthropology program will continue to offer alternating classes distance education classes classes at both campuses and summer school classes to meet student demand

Notes for developing the calendar
Start with realistic goals The assessment cycle calendar should have reachable timelines
considering faculty workload classroom time needed for assessment and the inevitable adjustments and improvements in assessment tools and methodology
Not all SLOs have to be assessed every semester
Assessment activities dont need to occur every semester
All courses degrees and programs do need to be assessed on a regular cycle
C Have you completed all course assessments in eLumen If no explain why you were unable to do so during this program review cycle and what plan(s) exist for completing this in the next program review cycle
Yes all courses on the above Program Assessment Cycle Calendar have been assessed
D Include the most recent PLO Summary Map by Course from eLumen which shows the Course-level SLOs mapped to the Program-level SLOs
See attached
E Highlight changes made at the course or program level that have resulted from SLO assessment
1 SLO assessment shows that an early alert system would benefit students In Fall 2018 Canvas gradesheet is used in all Anthropology courses Students are able to get feedback on course progress and calculate their grade to track perfermance In addition three sections of Physical Anthropology have an embedded tutor

VI PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT
Indicate how the program supports efforts to achieve any of the following
A Institutional Goals and Objectives
The Anthropology Program connects to the Colleges goals and objectives in the following ways
Anthropology courses help to provide students a strong social science background Anthropology courses can be used to fulfill General Education requirements and for those students that will major in anthropology at four-year institutions our courses will provide a solid lower-division foundation for success
1 The Anthropology Program directly connects to the Colleges mission of developing critical thinking skills-developing critical thinking is an explicit part of one of the Anthropology Program Goals
2 The Anthropology Program helps to fulfill the Colleges mission of helping students to learn to appreciate the culture of all peoples in a diverse society
B Institutional Learning Outcomes 1 Personal Academic and Professional Development 2 Critical Thinking and Communication 3 Scientific and Environmental Understanding 4 Social Historical and Global Knowledge and Engagement 5 Artistic and Cultural Knowledge and Engagement 6 Technological and Informational Fluency
Anthropology courses are tied to a specific Institutional Learning Outcome (ILO) as listed below ILO 3 Scientific and Environmental Understanding ANTH 201 ANTHR 201L Draw conclusions based on the scientific method computations or experimental and observational evidence
Analyze the relationship between peoples actions and the physical world
Make decisions regarding environmental issues based on scientific evidence and reasoning
ILO 4 Social Historical and Global Knowledge and Engagement ANTH 203 ANTH 225 Analyze evaluate and pursue their opportunities and obligations as citizens in a complex world
Demonstrate understanding of world traditions and the interrelationship between diverse groups and cultures
ILO 5 Artistic and Cultural Knowledge and Engagement ANTH 202 ANTH 203 ANTH 225 ANT 221 ANTH 220

Identify create or critique key elements of inspirational art forms
Demonstrate knowledge of and sensitivity to diverse groups and cultures through studying the worlds languages societies and histories
C Program outcomes The Anthropology Program has the following outcomes
1 Prepare students with the knowledge and skills required to succeed in the study of anthropology
2 Provide students with the skills for critical thinking and perceptive reading 3 Provide students with the skills for anthropological analysis
Indicate any anticipated changes in the following areas
A Curriculum and scheduling There are no anticipated changes B Support services to promote success persistence and retention
Lise Mifsud participated in the first annual Cougar Welcome Days This event welcomes students and their parents to our College This was a great event where prespective students learned about a career in anthropology Lise Mifsud presented at the last three Cuesta College Promise events Hundreds of students came to our big lecture hall to hear about the Social Sciences A table was also setup for this event with primate skulls fossil casts and real reptile and mammal skulls for comparison
In addition an embedded tutor is utilized for three sections of Physical Anthropology lecture For the previous four semesters students have increased their success because of our expert student tutor Kailey Schwabenland She will transfer at the end of this semester and another tutor is scheduled to take her place
C Facilities needs A dedicated lab for ANTH 201L would be a welcomed addition Students currently have a room to use for studying but a lab with a sink and better lighting would be amazing(
D Staffing needsprojections Our current adjunct faculty are sufficient for our current course offerings However a part-time pool could be needed at a future date Our one full-time faculty member is responsible for curriculum development assessment outreach program review student support (letter of recommendation etc) and instruction for five different preps Restoring funds to employ a reader would alleviate out of pocket costs for lab assistant
Lastly address any changes in strategy in response to the predicted budget and FTES target for the next program review cycle
The Anthropology program will continue to offer alternating classes distance education classes classes at both campuses and summer school classes to meet student demand

Notes for developing the calendar
Start with realistic goals The assessment cycle calendar should have reachable timelines
considering faculty workload classroom time needed for assessment and the inevitable adjustments and improvements in assessment tools and methodology
Not all SLOs have to be assessed every semester
Assessment activities dont need to occur every semester
All courses degrees and programs do need to be assessed on a regular cycle
C Have you completed all course assessments in eLumen If no explain why you were unable to do so during this program review cycle and what plan(s) exist for completing this in the next program review cycle
Yes all courses on the above Program Assessment Cycle Calendar have been assessed
D Include the most recent PLO Summary Map by Course from eLumen which shows the Course-level SLOs mapped to the Program-level SLOs
See attached
E Highlight changes made at the course or program level that have resulted from SLO assessment
1 SLO assessment shows that an early alert system would benefit students In Fall 2018 Canvas gradesheet is used in all Anthropology courses Students are able to get feedback on course progress and calculate their grade to track perfermance In addition three sections of Physical Anthropology have an embedded tutor

VI PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT
Indicate how the program supports efforts to achieve any of the following
A Institutional Goals and Objectives
The Anthropology Program connects to the Colleges goals and objectives in the following ways
Anthropology courses help to provide students a strong social science background Anthropology courses can be used to fulfill General Education requirements and for those students that will major in anthropology at four-year institutions our courses will provide a solid lower-division foundation for success
1 The Anthropology Program directly connects to the Colleges mission of developing critical thinking skills-developing critical thinking is an explicit part of one of the Anthropology Program Goals
2 The Anthropology Program helps to fulfill the Colleges mission of helping students to learn to appreciate the culture of all peoples in a diverse society
B Institutional Learning Outcomes 1 Personal Academic and Professional Development 2 Critical Thinking and Communication 3 Scientific and Environmental Understanding 4 Social Historical and Global Knowledge and Engagement 5 Artistic and Cultural Knowledge and Engagement 6 Technological and Informational Fluency
Anthropology courses are tied to a specific Institutional Learning Outcome (ILO) as listed below ILO 3 Scientific and Environmental Understanding ANTH 201 ANTHR 201L Draw conclusions based on the scientific method computations or experimental and observational evidence
Analyze the relationship between peoples actions and the physical world
Make decisions regarding environmental issues based on scientific evidence and reasoning
ILO 4 Social Historical and Global Knowledge and Engagement ANTH 203 ANTH 225 Analyze evaluate and pursue their opportunities and obligations as citizens in a complex world
Demonstrate understanding of world traditions and the interrelationship between diverse groups and cultures
ILO 5 Artistic and Cultural Knowledge and Engagement ANTH 202 ANTH 203 ANTH 225 ANT 221 ANTH 220

Identify create or critique key elements of inspirational art forms
Demonstrate knowledge of and sensitivity to diverse groups and cultures through studying the worlds languages societies and histories
C Program outcomes The Anthropology Program has the following outcomes
1 Prepare students with the knowledge and skills required to succeed in the study of anthropology
2 Provide students with the skills for critical thinking and perceptive reading 3 Provide students with the skills for anthropological analysis
Indicate any anticipated changes in the following areas
A Curriculum and scheduling There are no anticipated changes B Support services to promote success persistence and retention
Lise Mifsud participated in the first annual Cougar Welcome Days This event welcomes students and their parents to our College This was a great event where prespective students learned about a career in anthropology Lise Mifsud presented at the last three Cuesta College Promise events Hundreds of students came to our big lecture hall to hear about the Social Sciences A table was also setup for this event with primate skulls fossil casts and real reptile and mammal skulls for comparison
In addition an embedded tutor is utilized for three sections of Physical Anthropology lecture For the previous four semesters students have increased their success because of our expert student tutor Kailey Schwabenland She will transfer at the end of this semester and another tutor is scheduled to take her place
C Facilities needs A dedicated lab for ANTH 201L would be a welcomed addition Students currently have a room to use for studying but a lab with a sink and better lighting would be amazing(
D Staffing needsprojections Our current adjunct faculty are sufficient for our current course offerings However a part-time pool could be needed at a future date Our one full-time faculty member is responsible for curriculum development assessment outreach program review student support (letter of recommendation etc) and instruction for five different preps Restoring funds to employ a reader would alleviate out of pocket costs for lab assistant
Lastly address any changes in strategy in response to the predicted budget and FTES target for the next program review cycle
The Anthropology program will continue to offer alternating classes distance education classes classes at both campuses and summer school classes to meet student demand

VI PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT
Indicate how the program supports efforts to achieve any of the following
A Institutional Goals and Objectives
The Anthropology Program connects to the Colleges goals and objectives in the following ways
Anthropology courses help to provide students a strong social science background Anthropology courses can be used to fulfill General Education requirements and for those students that will major in anthropology at four-year institutions our courses will provide a solid lower-division foundation for success
1 The Anthropology Program directly connects to the Colleges mission of developing critical thinking skills-developing critical thinking is an explicit part of one of the Anthropology Program Goals
2 The Anthropology Program helps to fulfill the Colleges mission of helping students to learn to appreciate the culture of all peoples in a diverse society
B Institutional Learning Outcomes 1 Personal Academic and Professional Development 2 Critical Thinking and Communication 3 Scientific and Environmental Understanding 4 Social Historical and Global Knowledge and Engagement 5 Artistic and Cultural Knowledge and Engagement 6 Technological and Informational Fluency
Anthropology courses are tied to a specific Institutional Learning Outcome (ILO) as listed below ILO 3 Scientific and Environmental Understanding ANTH 201 ANTHR 201L Draw conclusions based on the scientific method computations or experimental and observational evidence
Analyze the relationship between peoples actions and the physical world
Make decisions regarding environmental issues based on scientific evidence and reasoning
ILO 4 Social Historical and Global Knowledge and Engagement ANTH 203 ANTH 225 Analyze evaluate and pursue their opportunities and obligations as citizens in a complex world
Demonstrate understanding of world traditions and the interrelationship between diverse groups and cultures

Identify create or critique key elements of inspirational art forms
Demonstrate knowledge of and sensitivity to diverse groups and cultures through studying the worlds languages societies and histories
C Program outcomes The Anthropology Program has the following outcomes
1 Prepare students with the knowledge and skills required to succeed in the study of anthropology
2 Provide students with the skills for critical thinking and perceptive reading 3 Provide students with the skills for anthropological analysis
Indicate any anticipated changes in the following areas
A Curriculum and scheduling There are no anticipated changes B Support services to promote success persistence and retention
Lise Mifsud participated in the first annual Cougar Welcome Days This event welcomes students and their parents to our College This was a great event where prespective students learned about a career in anthropology Lise Mifsud presented at the last three Cuesta College Promise events Hundreds of students came to our big lecture hall to hear about the Social Sciences A table was also setup for this event with primate skulls fossil casts and real reptile and mammal skulls for comparison
In addition an embedded tutor is utilized for three sections of Physical Anthropology lecture For the previous four semesters students have increased their success because of our expert student tutor Kailey Schwabenland She will transfer at the end of this semester and another tutor is scheduled to take her place
C Facilities needs A dedicated lab for ANTH 201L would be a welcomed addition Students currently have a room to use for studying but a lab with a sink and better lighting would be amazing(
D Staffing needsprojections Our current adjunct faculty are sufficient for our current course offerings However a part-time pool could be needed at a future date Our one full-time faculty member is responsible for curriculum development assessment outreach program review student support (letter of recommendation etc) and instruction for five different preps Restoring funds to employ a reader would alleviate out of pocket costs for lab assistant
Lastly address any changes in strategy in response to the predicted budget and FTES target for the next program review cycle
The Anthropology program will continue to offer alternating classes distance education classes classes at both campuses and summer school classes to meet student demand

Indicate any anticipated changes in the following areas
A Curriculum and scheduling There are no anticipated changes B Support services to promote success persistence and retention
Lise Mifsud participated in the first annual Cougar Welcome Days This event welcomes students and their parents to our College This was a great event where prespective students learned about a career in anthropology Lise Mifsud presented at the last three Cuesta College Promise events Hundreds of students came to our big lecture hall to hear about the Social Sciences A table was also setup for this event with primate skulls fossil casts and real reptile and mammal skulls for comparison
In addition an embedded tutor is utilized for three sections of Physical Anthropology lecture For the previous four semesters students have increased their success because of our expert student tutor Kailey Schwabenland She will transfer at the end of this semester and another tutor is scheduled to take her place
C Facilities needs A dedicated lab for ANTH 201L would be a welcomed addition Students currently have a room to use for studying but a lab with a sink and better lighting would be amazing(
D Staffing needsprojections Our current adjunct faculty are sufficient for our current course offerings However a part-time pool could be needed at a future date Our one full-time faculty member is responsible for curriculum development assessment outreach program review student support (letter of recommendation etc) and instruction for five different preps Restoring funds to employ a reader would alleviate out of pocket costs for lab assistant
Lastly address any changes in strategy in response to the predicted budget and FTES target for the next program review cycle
The Anthropology program will continue to offer alternating classes distance education classes classes at both campuses and summer school classes to meet student demand

Notes for developing the calendar
Start with realistic goals The assessment cycle calendar should have reachable timelines
considering faculty workload classroom time needed for assessment and the inevitable adjustments and improvements in assessment tools and methodology
Not all SLOs have to be assessed every semester
Assessment activities dont need to occur every semester
All courses degrees and programs do need to be assessed on a regular cycle
C Have you completed all course assessments in eLumen If no explain why you were unable to do so during this program review cycle and what plan(s) exist for completing this in the next program review cycle
Yes all courses on the above Program Assessment Cycle Calendar have been assessed
D Include the most recent PLO Summary Map by Course from eLumen which shows the Course-level SLOs mapped to the Program-level SLOs
See attached
E Highlight changes made at the course or program level that have resulted from SLO assessment
1 SLO assessment shows that an early alert system would benefit students In Fall 2018 Canvas gradesheet is used in all Anthropology courses Students are able to get feedback on course progress and calculate their grade to track perfermance In addition three sections of Physical Anthropology have an embedded tutor

C Program outcomes The Anthropology Program has the following outcomes
1 Prepare students with the knowledge and skills required to succeed in the study of anthropology
2 Provide students with the skills for critical thinking and perceptive reading 3 Provide students with the skills for anthropological analysis
Indicate any anticipated changes in the following areas
A Curriculum and scheduling There are no anticipated changes B Support services to promote success persistence and retention
Lise Mifsud participated in the first annual Cougar Welcome Days This event welcomes students and their parents to our College This was a great event where prespective students learned about a career in anthropology Lise Mifsud presented at the last three Cuesta College Promise events Hundreds of students came to our big lecture hall to hear about the Social Sciences A table was also setup for this event with primate skulls fossil casts and real reptile and mammal skulls for comparison
In addition an embedded tutor is utilized for three sections of Physical Anthropology lecture For the previous four semesters students have increased their success because of our expert student tutor Kailey Schwabenland She will transfer at the end of this semester and another tutor is scheduled to take her place
C Facilities needs A dedicated lab for ANTH 201L would be a welcomed addition Students currently have a room to use for studying but a lab with a sink and better lighting would be amazing(
D Staffing needsprojections Our current adjunct faculty are sufficient for our current course offerings However a part-time pool could be needed at a future date Our one full-time faculty member is responsible for curriculum development assessment outreach program review student support (letter of recommendation etc) and instruction for five different preps Restoring funds to employ a reader would alleviate out of pocket costs for lab assistant
Lastly address any changes in strategy in response to the predicted budget and FTES target for the next program review cycle
The Anthropology program will continue to offer alternating classes distance education classes classes at both campuses and summer school classes to meet student demand

considering faculty workload classroom time needed for assessment and the inevitable adjustments and improvements in assessment tools and methodology
Not all SLOs have to be assessed every semester
Assessment activities dont need to occur every semester
All courses degrees and programs do need to be assessed on a regular cycle
C Have you completed all course assessments in eLumen If no explain why you were unable to do so during this program review cycle and what plan(s) exist for completing this in the next program review cycle
Yes all courses on the above Program Assessment Cycle Calendar have been assessed
D Include the most recent PLO Summary Map by Course from eLumen which shows the Course-level SLOs mapped to the Program-level SLOs

VI PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT
Indicate how the program supports efforts to achieve any of the following
A Institutional Goals and Objectives
The Anthropology Program connects to the Colleges goals and objectives in the following ways
Anthropology courses help to provide students a strong social science background Anthropology courses can be used to fulfill General Education requirements and for those students that will major in anthropology at four-year institutions our courses will provide a solid lower-division foundation for success
1 The Anthropology Program directly connects to the Colleges mission of developing critical thinking skills-developing critical thinking is an explicit part of one of the Anthropology Program Goals
2 The Anthropology Program helps to fulfill the Colleges mission of helping students to learn to appreciate the culture of all peoples in a diverse society
B Institutional Learning Outcomes 1 Personal Academic and Professional Development 2 Critical Thinking and Communication 3 Scientific and Environmental Understanding 4 Social Historical and Global Knowledge and Engagement 5 Artistic and Cultural Knowledge and Engagement 6 Technological and Informational Fluency
Anthropology courses are tied to a specific Institutional Learning Outcome (ILO) as listed below ILO 3 Scientific and Environmental Understanding ANTH 201 ANTHR 201L Draw conclusions based on the scientific method computations or experimental and observational evidence
Analyze the relationship between peoples actions and the physical world
Make decisions regarding environmental issues based on scientific evidence and reasoning
ILO 4 Social Historical and Global Knowledge and Engagement ANTH 203 ANTH 225 Analyze evaluate and pursue their opportunities and obligations as citizens in a complex world
Demonstrate understanding of world traditions and the interrelationship between diverse groups and cultures

Identify create or critique key elements of inspirational art forms
Demonstrate knowledge of and sensitivity to diverse groups and cultures through studying the worlds languages societies and histories
C Program outcomes The Anthropology Program has the following outcomes
1 Prepare students with the knowledge and skills required to succeed in the study of anthropology
2 Provide students with the skills for critical thinking and perceptive reading 3 Provide students with the skills for anthropological analysis
Indicate any anticipated changes in the following areas
A Curriculum and scheduling There are no anticipated changes B Support services to promote success persistence and retention
Lise Mifsud participated in the first annual Cougar Welcome Days This event welcomes students and their parents to our College This was a great event where prespective students learned about a career in anthropology Lise Mifsud presented at the last three Cuesta College Promise events Hundreds of students came to our big lecture hall to hear about the Social Sciences A table was also setup for this event with primate skulls fossil casts and real reptile and mammal skulls for comparison
In addition an embedded tutor is utilized for three sections of Physical Anthropology lecture For the previous four semesters students have increased their success because of our expert student tutor Kailey Schwabenland She will transfer at the end of this semester and another tutor is scheduled to take her place
C Facilities needs A dedicated lab for ANTH 201L would be a welcomed addition Students currently have a room to use for studying but a lab with a sink and better lighting would be amazing(
D Staffing needsprojections Our current adjunct faculty are sufficient for our current course offerings However a part-time pool could be needed at a future date Our one full-time faculty member is responsible for curriculum development assessment outreach program review student support (letter of recommendation etc) and instruction for five different preps Restoring funds to employ a reader would alleviate out of pocket costs for lab assistant
Lastly address any changes in strategy in response to the predicted budget and FTES target for the next program review cycle
The Anthropology program will continue to offer alternating classes distance education classes classes at both campuses and summer school classes to meet student demand

Notes for developing the calendar
Start with realistic goals The assessment cycle calendar should have reachable timelines
considering faculty workload classroom time needed for assessment and the inevitable adjustments and improvements in assessment tools and methodology
Not all SLOs have to be assessed every semester
Assessment activities dont need to occur every semester
All courses degrees and programs do need to be assessed on a regular cycle
C Have you completed all course assessments in eLumen If no explain why you were unable to do so during this program review cycle and what plan(s) exist for completing this in the next program review cycle
Yes all courses on the above Program Assessment Cycle Calendar have been assessed
D Include the most recent PLO Summary Map by Course from eLumen which shows the Course-level SLOs mapped to the Program-level SLOs
See attached
E Highlight changes made at the course or program level that have resulted from SLO assessment
1 SLO assessment shows that an early alert system would benefit students In Fall 2018 Canvas gradesheet is used in all Anthropology courses Students are able to get feedback on course progress and calculate their grade to track perfermance In addition three sections of Physical Anthropology have an embedded tutor

VI PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT
Indicate how the program supports efforts to achieve any of the following
A Institutional Goals and Objectives
The Anthropology Program connects to the Colleges goals and objectives in the following ways
Anthropology courses help to provide students a strong social science background Anthropology courses can be used to fulfill General Education requirements and for those students that will major in anthropology at four-year institutions our courses will provide a solid lower-division foundation for success
1 The Anthropology Program directly connects to the Colleges mission of developing critical thinking skills-developing critical thinking is an explicit part of one of the Anthropology Program Goals
2 The Anthropology Program helps to fulfill the Colleges mission of helping students to learn to appreciate the culture of all peoples in a diverse society
B Institutional Learning Outcomes 1 Personal Academic and Professional Development 2 Critical Thinking and Communication 3 Scientific and Environmental Understanding 4 Social Historical and Global Knowledge and Engagement 5 Artistic and Cultural Knowledge and Engagement 6 Technological and Informational Fluency
Anthropology courses are tied to a specific Institutional Learning Outcome (ILO) as listed below ILO 3 Scientific and Environmental Understanding ANTH 201 ANTHR 201L Draw conclusions based on the scientific method computations or experimental and observational evidence
Analyze the relationship between peoples actions and the physical world
Make decisions regarding environmental issues based on scientific evidence and reasoning
ILO 4 Social Historical and Global Knowledge and Engagement ANTH 203 ANTH 225 Analyze evaluate and pursue their opportunities and obligations as citizens in a complex world
Demonstrate understanding of world traditions and the interrelationship between diverse groups and cultures

Identify create or critique key elements of inspirational art forms
Demonstrate knowledge of and sensitivity to diverse groups and cultures through studying the worlds languages societies and histories
C Program outcomes The Anthropology Program has the following outcomes
1 Prepare students with the knowledge and skills required to succeed in the study of anthropology
2 Provide students with the skills for critical thinking and perceptive reading 3 Provide students with the skills for anthropological analysis
Indicate any anticipated changes in the following areas
A Curriculum and scheduling There are no anticipated changes B Support services to promote success persistence and retention
Lise Mifsud participated in the first annual Cougar Welcome Days This event welcomes students and their parents to our College This was a great event where prespective students learned about a career in anthropology Lise Mifsud presented at the last three Cuesta College Promise events Hundreds of students came to our big lecture hall to hear about the Social Sciences A table was also setup for this event with primate skulls fossil casts and real reptile and mammal skulls for comparison
In addition an embedded tutor is utilized for three sections of Physical Anthropology lecture For the previous four semesters students have increased their success because of our expert student tutor Kailey Schwabenland She will transfer at the end of this semester and another tutor is scheduled to take her place
C Facilities needs A dedicated lab for ANTH 201L would be a welcomed addition Students currently have a room to use for studying but a lab with a sink and better lighting would be amazing(
D Staffing needsprojections Our current adjunct faculty are sufficient for our current course offerings However a part-time pool could be needed at a future date Our one full-time faculty member is responsible for curriculum development assessment outreach program review student support (letter of recommendation etc) and instruction for five different preps Restoring funds to employ a reader would alleviate out of pocket costs for lab assistant
Lastly address any changes in strategy in response to the predicted budget and FTES target for the next program review cycle
The Anthropology program will continue to offer alternating classes distance education classes classes at both campuses and summer school classes to meet student demand
