The overall purpose of the NSF-TCUP planning project is to enhance science, technology, and mathematics education at Saginaw Chippewa Tribal College. In addition, the project will lay the groundwork to apply for an NSF-TCUP Implementation Grant to carry-out those strategies on a long-term basis. These outcomes will be achieved through the following objectives and methods: Objectives: To complete a comparative study of SCTC.s STEM curricula and STEM curricula of at least two other colleges, including recommendations for curricular improvement. To complete a written plan of action for revising SCTC.s Plan of Learning by Students (PALS) and for training SCTC science, technology, and mathematics faculty to design their coursework to include quantifiable outcomes using the WIDS software. To complete a Facilities and Infrastructure Plan based on projected curricular and enrollment expansion over a three-year period. To complete a first draft of the NSF-TCUP Implementation Grant application. Methods: Systematically assess existing curricula and compare to curricula at similar colleges Conduct survey of literature and best practices Attend conferences and training sessions to inform efforts Provide on-site training in instructional design and assessment using a paid consultant Visit tribal college and community college campuses to collect information Survey college's personnel and infrastructure resources Develop long-range plans for curricular enhancement Synthesize and incorporate information into planning efforts to transform curricula
