. Water analysis for this first design was notperformed.Based on feedback, student in the 2011-12 GEO course worked with several faculty membersand a water laboratory manager from the local city to develop an improved water filter. Thedesign involved a single 13-gallon trash can to remove the need for multiple buckets and toprovide better stability on the islands. This time, 0.5 to 1-inch diameter gravel (1 ¼ inches high),1-5 mm diameter course sand (1 ¼ inches high), and 0.15-0.3 mm diameter fine sand (13 incheshigh) were used. The effective filtration height was similar to the 2010-11 design. Sand waswashed and separated using mesh and washing techniques. Three filters were built with severalof the islanders. Water was poured, when needed, onto

, anational and a local, are used to evaluate each student on achieving program objectives(competencies) based on direct observation. The national assessment rubric is designed to gaugethe student performance in achieving the program objectives, and the assessment data is used totake corrective action in terms of curriculum design and implementation. The local assessmenttool is designed to identify student strengths and weaknesses at course sequence level; theassessment data obtained is used to take corrective action at local level (campus) by revising thecourse contents and teaching methodologies at the lecture and laboratory levels.

. Introductory course in programming. This is typically a first course in a high level language. We call this CS Fundamentals I. 2. Introductory course on programming and data structures. This course may introduce a second high level language and typically focuses on data structures and some algorithms. We call this CS Fundamentals II. 3. Object-oriented courses. About a third of the programs had a separate course in object- oriented programming. Many of those that did not have such a course had at least an introduction to OOP in the first two courses. 4. Algorithms. This course is sometimes taught as primarily a mathematics course and some programs teach it with very little programming. We nevertheless classified it
