I. Instruction Projects Introduction and Overview
Introduction
Mission College was awarded the AANAPISI Part A and F grants in September 2011 and September 2012, respectively.
The goals of the grants are to implement a comprehensive set of best practice strategies to overcome the documented
obstacles of Asian American Pacific Islander (AAPI) students. The programs work alongside the major units of the college
including Student Support Services, Instruction, and Research to pilot programs, activities, curriculum, and other
resources to promote student success. Each project is expected to support the grant objectives while also informing the
higher education community about specific experiences of our AAPI student population.
Overview, Proposals for Instruction Projects
We are looking for Mission College faculty and staff interested in developing or revising curriculum that support any
combination of the grant strategies as described in this section, focusing on the unique needs of our Asian American
Pacific Islander (AAPI) student population. Projects to be funded will support AANAPISI’s mission of improving the
transition, progression, graduation, and transfer rates of AAPI students on campus. Projects include creation of new
curriculum, curriculum revisions, and professional development opportunities (i.e. conferences and workshops) that could
be tied to and support the development or revision of curriculum.
The AANAPISI Programs welcome project proposals from Mission College full and part-time faculty. We are especially
seeking proposals from the following departments/divisions: Basic Skills Departments (English, ESL, Reading, Math);
Science & Math Division; Liberal Arts Division; Business & Technology Divisions.
Project Timeframe
The implementation of the awarded projects will be completed during the 2013-2014 AANAPISI program year (October
1, 2013 to September 30, 2014).
• Curriculum proposals must be completed by April 28, 2014.
Project Report
Reports are an obligatory part of approved projects. The AANAPISI Sr. Administrative Assistant will guide you with this
activity. Any data or learning outcomes from your projects will be included in the grants’ APR (Annual Performance
Report). 2013-2014 projects will contribute to year 4 of the Part A grant and year 3 of the Part F grant; the APR’s are due
to the U.S. Department of Education by January of each program year.
Status Report Type
Description
In-Progress
These are mid-year reports for projects that are not
yet complete or are part of a multi-year project. A
status of activities and expenditures-to-date will be
requested at a future determined date.
Completed Projects
This is a final (summative) report, detailing the
activities, outputs, and measureable outcomes of the
project. The report is expected within 30 day of the
project end of September 30, 2014, whichever comes
first.

The mission of the AANAPISI programs is to improve the transition, progression, graduation, and transfer rates of
Asian American and Pacific Islander students at Mission College.
Overview of AANAPISI Grant Strategies
Part A
Part F
• To revise the credit ESL curriculum and to
allow more advanced AAPI students to progress
more rapidly through the course sequence into
college programs.
• To increase the numbers of AAPI students
transitioning from the highest levels of ESL courses
into college programs, and strengthen programs
and services to support transitions.
• To increase students reaching critical
academic progress and momentum points,
including those entering the college via the ESL
program and at development levels in English and
mathematics.
• To work more closely to implement the K-
16 Bridge program, with an emphasis on linkages
to feeder high schools with the highest AAPI
enrollments.
• To develop stronger relationships with the
Asian American and Pacific Islander community,
including development of an active AAPI
Community Advisory Committee.
• To strengthen capacity to disaggregate
data for analysis, especially for subgroups of AAPI
student populations, including closing critical gaps
in connectivity of information systems.
• To increase AAPI student transfers to four-
year colleges and universities, especially in science,
technology, engineering and math (STEM).
• To increase the success and sequential
continuation rates for all levels of mathematics.
• To focus on improving success rates in a
core of 21 non-math transfer courses which have
been identified as high risk due to below average
success rates.
• To centralize and strengthen academic
assistance and student support services for all
students preparing to transfer in STEM field,
including creation of a STEM Learning Center.
• To implement a college-wide faculty
development initiative for exploration of
innovative methods to improve both faculty and
student engagement in teaching and learning.
• To assist faculty to integrate research-
based best practices into courses, with an
emphasis on high risk transfer courses.
• To use the outcomes data and evaluation
assessments from this AANAPISI project to inform
planning, needed improvements and decision-
making across the College.
Part A Measurable Outcomes
Part F Measurable Outcomes
• Increase in successful AAPI student
transitions from ESL to College Programs;
• Increased numbers and percentages of
AAPI students reaching transfer directed
and transfer prepared status;

universities
• Increased success rates in targeted math
