Review Assessment Report

RADT 1070L, RADT 1570L, RADT 2890: RADT 1070L (c/o April 2022) Lab Final Exam Rubric: Section III: Exposure (max points= 80) RADT 1570L (c/o of August 2021) Lab Final Exam Rubric: Section III: Exposure (max points= 120) RADT 1570L (c/o April 2022) Lab Final Exam Rubric: Section III: Exposure (max points= 80)

•Benchmark met •A blank technique chart was uploaded into the students LMS, students were expected to make use of that and bring it with them to every positioning class. Students now submit their technique chart twice a semester for a grade. Attention is placed on recognizing DI numbers related to technique and dose. Experiments were performed with in labs to emphasize correct DI numbers, students were able to apply skills with the digital imaging system on campus. •Supplemental labs have been created so the students are able to have more lab time on campus during term two and three, the labs are 3 hours long. The control console has a locking device to ensure that students are not able to make exposures when faculty is not in the lab with them. There was an increase in learning because of emphasis and discussion on the technique selection and selecting appropriate technical factors in relation to DI numbers. •RADT 2890: Having students spend 4 terms in clinical rotations proves that students improve

RADT 2890 • Soft skills – visit 7 RADT 1690 (c/o August 2021) RADT 1690 (c/o April 2022) RADT 2890 (April 2021)

•Benchmark met. •We have added a line to the clinical instructor weekly document check form to remind the clinical instructors to “Discussion of the importance of “Soft Skills”. They discuss this weekly with the students during each of the 7 visits throughout the semester. •By their last clinical semester, the students demonstrated strong soft skills that are necessary to enter the workforce. •The data is accurate We will continue to assess this trend for the next two years.

•Benchmark met •Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, all RADT didactic classes were taught online. Lectures were prepared with voice-over recordings and faculty were available via online zoom meetings. The Labs for 1070 and 1570 were taught on campus face to face, with the exception of summer 2020 labs, which were taught online. CNM purchased and provided the program RadTechBootCamp for all students and RADT faculty; the program is being used in ALL RADT didactic classes including RADT 1070 and 1570. The students had access to the NaviRad Pro app during the hands on portion of the lab on their IPads and utilized all features of the app; the instructors also used the apple TV to project their own screens onto the board. The ancillary equipment used during lab and lecture includes a digital and computed radiography system. •All labs were taught by FT faculty members to ensure students were prepared for clinic rotations. •We are pleased with the results of the RADT 2890 assessment, this year the benchmark was raised.

RADT 1520: RADT 1520 (c/o April 2021) Assignment: Radiation Safety policy for operating room personnel -Grading rubric RADT 1520 (c/o August 2021) Assignment: Radiation Safety policy for operating room personnel -Grading rubric

•Emphasis was made to the students that specifics not generalizations about time, distance, shielding and dosimeter placement should be addressed in their policy. The student’s overall grades improved from previous semesters, students are provided the grading rubric in the Brightspace course shell. We will continue to assess this trend for another two years.

RADT 1570L: RADT 1570 (c/o August 2021) Lab Practicum Final: student is able to verbally communicate all the components of AIDET RADT 1570 (c/o April 2022) Lab Practicum Final: student is able to verbally communicate all the components of AIDET

•Benchmark met •During this semester, the students were doing clinical rotations, so they were aware of the AIDET principle. The AIDET principle was added to the Practicum forms and the importance of AIDET was reiterated to the students during lab and class time. Having the AIDET principle on the practicum stressed to the students just how important oral communication is. We are not surprised with the results, but we will continue to monitor this outcome and update the Advisory Council yearly.

RADT 2010 and RADT 2890: RADT 2010 (c/o August 2021) Image Critique Form: Chest Radiograph RADT 2010 (c/o April 2022) Image Critique Form: Chest Radiograph RADT 2890 (c/o April 2021) Image critique Form *summative

•In RADT 2010 (DUE to COVID-19) students met one on one with the instructor for an hour to go over image evaluation via zoom. Office hours via zoom were available for students weekly, to drop in and talk live to the instructor if needed. •We will raise the benchmark to 80% and continue to monitor next year. •RADT 2890 clinical faculty selected an image evaluation form of their choice without informing the student beforehand and graded them on the summative criteria in clinic rotations. •Moving forward we will continue with these activities and continue to assess this outcome.

This is not something we assess on currently, need to change moving forward.

•Class will continue with the Radiology Club and the emphasis on becoming an ASRT, NMSRT, or other professional society member. We will continue to perform community volunteer projects each fall and spring.
