Learning Analysis
What is the difference in scores on the various AMTEC assessments and labs for
• Those that use the AMTEC curriculum and those that are using other curriculum models
• Sources of training or academic degrees/experiences
• Years experience
• Learning Delivery (traditional college classroom, apprenticeship, online, real flipped classroom)
Test Item-level analysis
• Specific questions that were missed more often than others
• Specific student learning outcomes (not taught/covered or poorly taught)
• Specific occupational standards (not taught/covered or poorly taught)
• Faculty member occupational experience or background
Is there anything that would indicate technical issues prevented a successful outcome?
• Those programs that implement open entry/open exit, competency based models
• Those programs that are using the flipped classroom model
• The LMS platform being used
• The use of the AMTEC trainer or alternative simulation equipment

Somerset Community College and the ATMEC Assessment
Brief History of KCTCS and the AMTEC Assessment
• Fall 2010 semester,
– Dr. Annette Parker, former AMTEC director and liaison to the statewide curriculum
– KCTCS Industrial Maintenance Technology (IMT) curriculum committee,
– new Perkins IV assessment legislation for Fall 2012
• October, 2010,
– the IMT committee chose to use the AMTEC General Mechatronics assessment
Brief History of KCTCS and the AMTEC Assessment
• KCTCS involved in the AMTEC DACUM and creation of the AMTEC comprehensive assessment
• Cost benefit of using AMTEC test
SCC and the AMTEC Assessment• Spring 2011
– The Somerset Community College (SCC) Industrial Maintenance Technology (IMT) program began offering the AMTEC General Mechatronics assessment to students
– the SCC IMT faculty, which consists of Butch Tincher, Danny Lester, and Nick Tomlinson agreed to pre-test all incoming students and post-test all graduating students.
– SCC felt that better data concerning student learning could be obtained from comparing pre-test scores to post-test scores.
SCC and the AMTEC Assessment• Butch Tincher was appointed
AMTEC test coordinator.
– ensures that all incoming freshmen and graduates are tested.
– works with the SCC Assessment Center to procure a date for the exams and
– coordinates with all of the other instructors to find release time for the students to take the exam.
SCC and the AMTEC Assessment• April 1, 2011.
– Thirteen (13) students were tested.
– Six of them were pre-tests and seven were post-tests.
• Since that time,
– 51 students have been pre-tested and
– 27 have been post-tested. – The discrepancy between pre-tests and post-tests is due to non-
completers and students who are currently within their 2 years of
study and are not prepared for the post-assessment.
SCC Results
•currently 48.5.The cumulative
average pre-test score for SCC IMT students
•currently 58.2.The cumulative
average post-test score for SCC IMT students
•9.7 points.SCC students are increasing, on average,
SCC Results
•69.5 on 9-6-13.The highest pre-test score ever recorded
•30.5 on 9-6-13.The lowest pre-test
score ever recorded at SCC
•78 on 11-4-11.The highest post-test
score ever recorded at SCC
•28.9 on 11-16-12.The lowest post-test
score ever recorded at SCC

Three Qualifying Factors
• There is a trio of factors that one must consider when looking at the assessment results from SCC.
1. Students did not take the exam seriously
– Example a bright 4.0 G.P.A. student scored a 53 on the pre-test and received the worst score in SCC history with a 28.9. He admitted to not giving the effort needed to score well, because “you just had to take it, not pass it.”
Qualifying Factors2. Sequence of SCC IMT curriculum.
– Content courses involving electricity, motor controls, PLCs, blueprint reading, fluid power, mechanics, welding, and machine tool.
– worst sub-scores on student assessments are generally in those topics that were taken at the beginning of their program.
– best sub-scores on student assessments are generally in those topics that were taken in the last semester of their program.
Qualifying Factors
3. SCC does not use the AMTEC curriculum.
– SCC is using the state approved KCTCS curriculum.
– If SCC used the AMTEC curriculum, the scores would most likely increase.
The Future of SCC and AMTEC• Two critical factors
– Concern of the high cut-score on the AMTEC exam
– Time eroding student memory
• Conclusion
– creating a cumulative course known as IMT 289 Industrial Maintenance Capstone.
The Future of SCC and AMTEC• Fall, 2013
– all incoming students graduating with a diploma or degree will take this 1 credit hour capstone course
– The purpose of this course is to refresh the students’ memory of all of the main ideas in their previous IMT courses.
– At the completion of the course, students are required to take the AMTEC assessment as their final exam.
The Future of SCC and AMTEC
• Perkins IV– Along with this capstone course, Perkins V legislation
requires 70% of all graduates to achieve an approved cut-off score on the end of program assessment.
• On September 6, 2013, – the KCTCS IMT Curriculum Committee met in
Versailles, KY to established a cut-off score for the AMTEC test of 50.8.
– This score is for KCTCS use only in reporting results to the federal government in fulfillment of the Perkins V legislation. It does not supplant the official AMTEC cut-off score of 82.4%.
The Future of SCC and AMTEC
• SCC students will be required to pass the AMTEC test IMT 289 course.
– SCC students who do not meet the 50.8% will be required to retake the IMT 289 course.
