A Message from the President
E xternal giving is no longer a valuable augmentation to the continued

progress of Santa Fe College. Today, the grants, contracts and
contributions arranged by Santa Fe’s Office for Development are a
necessity in this time of waning governmental support.
Our instructional programs, support services, facilities and daily
operations depend upon the generosity of donors, vision of public
agencies, and wisdom of private organizations. All these efforts vector on
our core constituencies – the students and communities we serve.
I have thanked you before, and today I amplify my gratitude to all
those who support the college by contributing their time, advice and
wherewithal so we can reach our shared goals, and, after that, develop yet newer and better
methods of service and education.
Jackson N. Sasser

Introduction from the Vice President
T he funded projects outlined in this booklet represent the creative

thinking, best practices and the significant investment of time and
energy from many members of our college community, ultimately for the
benefit of our students. Though the project director is the only person
formally acknowledged, each grant or project is a tribute to the faculty
and staff of Santa Fe College.
The primary purpose in preparing this publication each year is to
provide information and recognition to the college community for these
contributions, and to stimulate innovative thinking for future projects. The
concise descriptions of each funded grant may be the seed of creativity
and the foundation for future initiatives which will further strengthen and enhance services for
students and for our community.
The 46 funded grants and projects described herein portray the wealth and diversity of
programs and best practices implemented by the personnel in the college. These projects are part
of the culture and legacy of Santa Fe, and they make a difference in the quality of education our
students experience.
These projects, and future projects, represent solutions to many of our resource challenges.
A debt of gratitude is owed to all involved for their time and diligence in successfully implementing
these projects made possible through external funding sources, for the benefit of our students.
Charles W. Clemons, Sr.

Vice President for Development

Project Implementation and Management
W hen an institution seeks external funding for special projects,

additional responsibilities are placed upon the college in securing
and administering these potential funds. The mission of the Office for
Development is to secure external funds in support of identified college
needs. The Office for Development encourages personnel to develop creative
ideas into viable model projects with an emphasis on identified needs and
insures these projects are properly managed. The funding process, from the
initial stages of proposal development through the duration of the funded
project, should provide for a minimum of in-house constraints. It should,
however, also provide for a maximum of accountability.
The Office for Development and the Office for Finance assist project directors and staff in
implementing activities and in preparing final reports. The Office for Development serves as a liaison
between project personnel and other offices of the college to facilitate the proper administration
of funds. Our primary objective is to provide technical and supportive assistance in the design,
management and final dissemination of projects.

Elements of a Successful Proposal
T he principal instrument with which outside funds are solicited

is the proposal. A grant proposal, in its most basic form, is
simply a written justification for resources requested. Proposals
may vary in length, format and quality; however, all proposals
must contain a consistent core of elements and characteristics.
In general, a good proposal has the following components:
I. Need
II. Objective (Purpose)
III. Methodology (Procedures)
IV. Evaluation
V. Budget
These five major elements structure the essence of a good
proposal. The proposal must be written in concise language.
It is advisable to prepare a one or two page summary as an
initial concept paper. This prospectus or abstract can then
be expanded to fully develop each of the five components
mentioned. These brief recommendations are especially
valid in the area of federal and state programs. The projects
described in this booklet exemplify good proposals.
The staff of the Office for Development is available to assist each and every staff and faculty
member in preparing project proposals.
viii
Developing a Proposal
A well-written competitive proposal for potential funding takes time to plan and develop. The
planning process can take several months and involves the following activities:
Procedures
• Identify idea and proper funding agency.
• Contact agency.
• Complete preliminary research and write well-planned needs assessment.
• Develop prospectus working with various approaches to implement the project.
• Submit preliminary prospectus to agency.
• Secure institutional approval.
• Modify prospectus based on agency recommendations.
• Complete second draft using feedback from faculty and staff.
• Finish and refine final proposal.
• Submit to agency.
• Agency approves or rejects proposal.

DIRECTOR
Steve Grosteffon
ABSTRACT
T he purpose of this project was to support Santa Fe College in redesigning its instructional approach
to Intermediate Algebra (MAT 1033) for increased student retention and success. Intermediate
Algebra is Santa Fe’s largest enrollment math course comprised of students with a wide range of
ability levels.
Colleagues Committed to Redesign (C2R) is a program conducted by the National Center
for Academic Transformation (NCAT) with support from the U.S. Department of Education Fund
for the Improvement of Post-Secondary Education (FIPSE). The C2R program provides support to
colleges and universities in rethinking and redesigning the way instruction is delivered, especially
large-enrollment core courses, in light of the possibilities that new technology offers.
A four-person team from SF met with NCAT staff, Redesign Scholars, and redesign teams from
other colleges at a disciplinary institute which introduced the NCAT methodology, strategies, and
techniques for successful course redesign, and helped the teams develop course redesign plans.
Following the institute, NCAT supported collaboration through consultation and on-site visits to Santa
Fe. SF implemented a pilot redesign of MAT 1033 and shared experiences and lessons learned with
the larger higher education community at an annual national dissemination conference sponsored
by the Redesign Alliance.
This project will benefit approximately 640 students enrolled annually in Intermediate Algebra.

ABSTRACT
T he purpose of this program was to enhance college readiness skills and motivation for 60
participants enrolled in grades 9-12 attending Newberry and Bradford High Schools. More
than 83 percent of the students were low-income and potential first-generation college students
and more than 16 percent met at least one of the criteria.
Academic year services included after-school tutoring at the designated high schools in

instruction in college entrance examination preparation, FCAT preparation and practice, computer
access, personal, academic and career counseling. Field trips provided opportunities to visit
college campuses, academic and professional career programs, attendance at cultural events
and activities, and community service initiatives. Workshops provided information and instruction
on college admissions and financial aid, testing techniques and effective study habits, health and
nutrition, and professional and personal etiquette. Student sponsored fundraising events were
organized to supply scholarships for seniors. In addition, an End-of-the-Year reception was held
in May to recognize outstanding student achievements.
The Upward Bound Program sponsored a six-week, non-residential summer enrichment
program. It provided instruction in the core curriculum academic subjects, which included
algebra through pre-calculus, laboratory sciences, English with an emphasis in literature, reading
and writing, Spanish and career development. The Work Study Internship/Mentoring Program was
sponsored for upper-class students to explore current career choices, and gain work experience
and mentoring from professionals in their chosen career fields.
This was year five of a five-year project.

to integrate nano-biosensor technology into existing course
materials and laboratories to transform curricula. SF also
developed a post baccalaureate certificate, which allows
for credit by experience and provides incumbent workers
with the opportunity to upgrade their job skills. The Biotechnology Laboratory Technician program
at SF provides almost all of its didactic curricula in a web-based format while providing flexible
scheduling for laboratory skills. Using this as a model, the post baccalaureate certificate provides
workers across the state access to this curriculum.

ABSTRACT
T he purpose of this project is to design and pilot a new model for developmental education
course delivery. College Prep Reading 2 (REA0002) will be redesigned using a model that
is scalable for delivery in diverse settings. Improvements in student success will come through
prescribed individual student learning plans based on solid diagnostic results, a flexible, modular
instructional delivery system, increased student engagement on task using technology tools, and
just-in-time assistance from instructors in a reading lab. As a direct result of the course redesign,
the amount of time that students devote to developmental education coursework will be reduced,
creating significant student savings. Approximately 300 students will be served by this project
initially.
