The photograph has greatly influenced our visual heritage and is a medium practiced by countless people worldwide. 我们的使命是为学生提供高质量的摄影技术教育, aesthetics, creativity and content, 以及摄影的历史和当代趋势. We strive to provide both commercial, and fine art students, access to state-of-the-art equipment and technology, and to instill a strong sense of photographic history as well as grounding in current photographic theory. Digital and traditional approaches to the medium are explored as both represent the historic and current trends in the industry. We believe the many aspects of fine art photography inform and improve commercial work and vice versa; this multi-disciplinary philosophy underlies most of our curriculum. Photography has gone through significant technological changes since the development of electronic imaging. Photography education in the 21st century must maintain relevance to meet the needs of contemporary students. Photography instructors have an opportunity to create a dynamic new paradigm that blends the full spectrum of the photographic experience.
Butte College�s Photography Program offers two areas of training for students interested in a career in photography: a major in Commercial Photography and a major in Fine Art Photography. Courses in digital and traditional photography provide a strong foundation for either career path. 而商业摄影课程-提供技术的重点，使学生能够 create images to professional standards, fine art classes offer instruction in the manipulation of materials, creative expression, development of a personal esthetic and presentation in order to allow photographers to create a strong personal response to personal issues as well as those in the world around them. However, we strongly encourage students to participate in both venues; since artists can benefit from strength in technique and a strong personal esthetic can give a commercial photographer the edge needed to be successful in their chosen career. This unique integration of the two areas of 摄影专业知识，通常与教育分开，是该计划的原因之一 recognized by the community at large as one of the strongest and most diversified photography departments in Northern California. Our courses are taught by experienced instructors with years of expertise and knowledge in both the commercial and fine art avenues of photography. 在我们多样化的课程中继续提供优秀的教学, 我们的项目最近增加了两名新的副教员. Our course offerings are as follows: AS DEGREE IN PHOTOGRAPHY� 60 units The major consists of 26 units. Changes: The required units for the AS Degree in Photography have been changed from 46 units to 26 units. 12 out of the 26 units are core classes (family of classes) with 14 additional units from other required courses for the major. 单位负荷的变化将允许学生在一年内完成该专业. 以下四门核心课程为全家福课程:12个单元 PHO 2 Introduction to Photography � 3 units PHO 4彩色摄影- 3单元(P)或PHO 6黑白摄影- 3单元(P) PHO 8 Commercial Photography - 3 units (P) PHO 7 Stock Photography - 3 units (P) Butte College photography classes also serve the rest of the college community since they are 其他学习领域的先决条件:艺术，平面设计，电信和媒体 Services Program is representative. 许多学生都回来告诉我们，一个整体 对摄影的了解是导致雇主选择他们的技能 applicant otherwise equally qualified for the job.
The Department Chair was not able to find the Program Review reports for Photography when he followed the link provided. 因为当时我还没有这个项目的责任, and was not involved in their Program Review, we are unable to complete this section at this time.
Strategy 1 - SLOs, PLOs...
Continue the work of refining and implementing the assessment of meaningful Student Learning Outcomes in each of our photography courses.
Student Learning Outcome assesments given in each photography course help ensure the program's entended goals. �Faculty will be able to adjust and/or reenforce course content based on SLOs so students more readally absorb and retain information valuable to their future careers.
Strategy 2 - Photo Lab Tech hours
Increase photo lab tech position to 12 months
在10个月的合同中，完全维护暗室和数字实验室是不可能的. 夏季对实验室设施和硬件的适当维护和维修至关重要
Strategy 3 - Budget backfill
预算额外的资金来支付不再通过学生学费支付的实验室费用
学生的学费不能再用于实验材料. We need to have increased budget support to pay for these essential items or the lab will have to be closed
Strategy 4 - Equipment replacement and upgrades...
Funding required to purchase needed photographic hardware to keep classes relevant and reflective of current professional practices
摄影课上使用的一些设备是过时的、坏的和无法修理的. We must replace, and in some instances, 如果我们想让我们的培训与时俱进，就要升级这个装备.
策略5 -聘请全职终身讲师在照片.
聘请一位全职的终身摄影教练.
直到几年前丹尼斯·威克斯退休, and for the past three decades, Photography has had full-time leadership. 摄影区是在杰夫·弗里克(Geoff Fricker)的天才指导下建造的, collaborating with many excellent imaging-professionals who have served us as associate faculty, 并得到我们知识渊博、敬业的实验室技术人员Davin的协助, Schreindl.
We need to restore this lost position in order to better accomplish our goals of providing top-quality instruction in our core classes, updating our curricula, managing our budget and facilities, 衡量和报告我们所有课程的SLO和PLO成绩.
策略六-修改课程编号、课程名称和课程顺序
We need to revise our Course Numbering, Titles, 排序，使它们更容易理解，对学生更有用.
Our present Course Titles and Numbering do not make intuitive sense and offer students very little in the way of guidance relative to Course content and sequencing.

| 4 Variable Contrast Black & White Enlarger | We have 20 enlargers in our photo darkroom. Some date back to 1990 possibly earlier. We have replaced 4 with previous Unit Plan funds but would like to continue replacing 4 every few years. We believe that replacing 4 at a time is sufficient to keep old worn out enlargers from becoming a problem. They were not originally purchased at the same time, 这也是它们不需要同时更换的原因之一. Our darkroom classes, which the enlargers are used for, 是系里最受欢迎的课程，而且似乎越来越受欢迎吗. PLEASE CONSIDER FOR PERKINS FUNDING: 1012.00-APPLIED PHOTOGRAPHY |
