Program Mission: To provide the skills, experiences, and learning for TVPro majors required by employers to enter the television production profession and related film industry HDTV career areas.
Students develop skills in lighting, audio, location & studio production, directing, editing, camera operation, and television graphics. This career-oriented program is designed for students seeking job-entry skills, retraining or upgrading in professional digital cinematography, with emphasis on all aspects of video production. The program is demanding, condensed, academically challenging, and requires substantial time commitments. Courses and extensive hands-on labs include the use of state-of-the-art digital video technology and equipment, emphasizing video equipment operation, storytelling, application and mastery of equipment, and aesthetics.
Leeward’s TV PRO program is uniquely co-designed by industry leaders and university educators to provide the knowledge skills necessary to enter the TV production profession. Our courses, taught by working professionals and subject specialists, train students for entry-level positions in broadcast and non-broadcast operations in the television and HDTV film production field.

Current Program cycle - Students entered the TVPRO Level 1 courses in Spring 2011. They progressed through Level II courses in Fall 2011 and completed the sequence in Spring 2012. A new cohort of 20 students entered the course sequence for Fall 2012, and they should be finishing the coursework in Fall 2013.
While all TVPRO program indicators are "Healthy" there are concerns about the number of majors (Demand #3) and SSHs in all program classes (Demand #6). There are also concerns regarding a drop in average class size (Efficiency #9), and the related fill rate (Efficiency #10).
Number of majors - There has been an 11% decrease in the number of majors from the previous year (45 majors in 2010-2011; 40 in 2011-2012). In the past, the program aggressively ensured that TVPRO students officially declared their TVPRO major. However, in our recently revised curriculum, we have included three courses with no prerequisites or co-requisites: TVPR 101, 210 and 211. They are open to any LCC student, including non-majors. We have also not been as aggressive in having students declare their major. It is possible that the decrease in the number of majors is the result of students neglecting to do the paperwork to change or declare their major.
TVPR 101 is offered every semester. As a result, that course tends to have a higher impact on reported data than 210 and 211, which are offered once every third semester. (This program is not year round.) The TVPR 101 course roster for Fall 2011 indicates that of the 16 students registered, 6 (37%) were non-majors. Accordingly, the SSHs for Non-Majors in Program Classes have increased from 85 to 93, a 9.4% increase. However, the number of SSHs for Majors in Program Classes has decreased by 23%.
While all indicators remain "Healthy," and all Perkins Core Indicators have been met or exceeded, the program needs to determine why the average class size has dropped from 18.6 to 14.6 (about 22%). Most TVPRO courses are capped at 20 students. One reason might be the Math 100 or higher prerequisite required to matriculate from Level I courses into Level II and Level III courses. Student feedback indicates that many TVPRO majors have difficulty meeting this program requirement, which is also a requirement for the Certificate of Achievement and A.S. Degree. Previously, zero withdrawals were reported in AY 2009-10 and 2010-11, but seven withdrawals were reported in 2011-12. That unusually high number has certainly affected most of the other 2011-12 indicators including average class size, fill rate, and SSHs in program classes.
The program will have to explore alternatives to traditional transfer level math courses which may include a program modification to include either Math 100 or higher OR Philosophy 110.
Most of the components for the program's conversion to HDTV have been purchased. However, installation has fallen behind schedule due to construction delays of the new instructional lab/studio in BE103. As the installation of new equipment progresses, the program expects that some additional components which could not have been anticipated will have to be purchased. These are smaller items including wiring, connectors, conversion components, etc.
Furniture for the new studio has not yet been ordered. This includes chairs and other instructional furniture.
The primary resource expenditure for the program will be personnel. The program will require at least two and possibly three part-time student help positions to oversee security and safety in the new lab/studio because this facility (BE103) is now separate from the EMC which formerly provided these services.
For the 2011-2012 program year, some or all of the following P-SLOs were reviewed by the program:

All TVPRO courses have been mapped to Program SLOs in TK20. Individual course SLO assessments have been evaluated. Through the mapped course SLOs, the PLOs have been assessed. However, it has been discovered during this evaluation process that the TVPRO universal rubric for individual course SLO assessments needs to be revised. We can't use the same rubric with different course formats, means of delivery, pedagogy, and instructional methods. Some course SLOs, for example, require mastery of information delivered through lecture while others primarily depend on mastery of equipment use. Therefore, individual scoring rubrics for each TVPRO course SLO are being revised and developed at this time.
Rubrics originally submitted for all TVPRO courses were deemed too generic by the faculty. All existing rubrics are being rewritten at this time.
