Wednesday, Mav 18.1994 CCC Foundation awards mini-grants by Jocelyn Gauthier The Print Editorial Staff Clackamas Community College Foundation recently awarded seven CCC faculty mem­ bers with mini-grants totaling $16,000 for special projects de­ signed to enhance the college’s educational programs. The Foundation estab­ lished the Mini-Grant for Innova­ tion program in 1988 to encour­ age innovation in the classroom. It gives grants ranging from $500 to $3,000 to selected college staff every year. The staff members’ proposals must meet a number of guidelines, including showing a commitment to the college’s mis­ sion of “creating lifetime oppor- tunitiesof success through respon­ sive, education.” Private donations and contributions from college em­ ployees to the CCC Foundation fund the mini-grant program, which totaled $18,000 this year. In its six years of existence, the program has provided over $78,000 in mini-grants. Vivian Thole received $2,500 to create an informative video that will represent the ac­ tivities in the Family Resource Center. “I’m very happy to re­ Physical Science Department Head, said that fossils are Snively’s particular interest. “Rather than shut them way in dark cupboards,” said Scott, he has filled the lobby in the lab building in Pauling with many displays of eggs, birds, rocks and descriptions of the boulders around campus. Judy Hylton received $2,872 for a MIDI Sequencing Training program for music stu­ dents. The MIDI, Musical Instru­ ment Digital Interface, allows a musical instrument to “talk” to a computer. CCC students will use these with the keyboard work sta­ tions in Streeter. The sequencer is like a tape recorder because it records and plays back music, as well as remembers pitch, rhythm and tempo. “If a person has an idea in their head, they can tell the computer how to play it,” Hylton said. She said it has deleted the need for a full band, because one person can record the bass, drums, etc. on their own. “If you’re a musician, it’s not as much fun or as flexible (as a band),” she said. To use these new programs, sign up for next year’s class. Janet Martin, the instructor, can be reached at ext. 2359 if you have able to search via the OCLC, a national computerized library da­ tabase. “I hope that people will come in and make use of this new service,” Hicks said. “If they have questions, just come and ask at the reference desk.” Hicks suggests that students come early in the morning, or later in the evening, when the phone lines aren’t as busy. Jean Taylor received $1,500for a new audio-visual sys­ tem for evaluating student perfor­ mance in the nursing skills lab. At the moment, they have only two cameras, which doesn’t allow for each student to be monitored. Now both the instructor and students can review procedures from the monitor. “It takes away the in­ timidation from having students work with other students...they won’thave someone standingover their shoulder. Now the students can see how they present them­ selves to other students. That’s a real shock to them,” she said. Besides adding to the students’ educations, “it gives us a lot of flexibilty. This camera will allow EMT students to participate... (and) there’s a lot less hassle with setting it up,” she said. ceive the grant,” said Thole, who will be creating the video with Bill Symes. “We have previously sent speakers out into the commu­ nity and they will now be able to use a video,” she said. Molly Williams received $2,765 for an orientation video for prospective English as a Sec­ ond Language students. “A lot of people are afraid to come to ESL,” Williams said. Prospective stu­ dents will be able to see classes on video to help them make choices about which ones would be right forthem. The video will be “a real time-saver,” Williams said, be­ cause it will keep many students from dropping out of classes that they were not prepared for. John Snively received $1,500 for the construction of a case to display a recently donated fossil collection. Since he’s on sabbatical this term, Chuck Scott, questions about the class. Mike Hodges received $3,000 for an Accutrack photo­ finish system for track and field meets, which will also generate user fees to help fund future mini­ grants. “It’s the first system of it’s kind in Clackamas County,” said Hodges, who plans to make the system available to high schools in the county. They paid for the system with track club funding and Oregon Trail All-Star meets, but, “without the foundation, we wouldn’t have been able to do it,” he said. Karen Hicks received $2,254 to enable CCC library us­ ers to search the on-line library catalog throughout Clackamas County. She explained that she wants students to have access to public dial-up computers so that they can find out what public li­ braries have. Students will also be The CCC Foundation is a non-profit charitable organiza­ tion which accepts donations to further student access. Formore information, call ext. 2402.
