Instructor Name: Jessica Bayntun
Rationale for why students need to be on campus:
A significant aspect of DETA 5230, is the opportunity for the students to build iterative
proof-of-concept prototypes. This course will allow the students to prepare for their
Capstone project, by giving them the necessary experience in making as research. This
requires the use of both general sewing labs and specialty sewing labs to access sewing
machines, specialty sewing machines, sew-free machines, laser cutter, textiles, dress forms,
etc. Some students may have
sewing machines at home (not all do) but none have access to
the specialty machines outside
of the KPU labs. An important part of the iterative prototyping is feedback and assistance from
the instructor on textile selection and construction methods. This is best provided in person
and in the presence of the machines used to make iterative changes as the prototype is
developed.
Have you informed the Registrar of the scheduling requirements for this course? Yes/no and
when informed?
Yes, August 21, 2020
v.2 July 14, 2020 2
PPE requirements for students, faculty, and staff (quantity needed).
Anticipated PPE to include: masks for up to 4 students plus 1 faculty and 2 staff members
(students/faculty to supply own masks, back-up masks on hand); hand washing stations;
disinfecting cleaner for sewing machines, tables and chairs (and any other
equipment that
may be used). Gloves are not anticipated as necessary in the general sewing lab area if hand
washing stations are provided; however, gloves will be needed for shared equipment
(specialty sewing machines and irons). The specialty machines have small parts and touch
points that may be difficult to disinfect. The irons will be shared frequently.
Has there been consultation with the Faculty OH&S Committee or the instructor? (provide
details).
Yes, with the instructor and program coordinator in August 2020, waiting for final
approval from OH&S.
v.2 July 14, 2020 3
Students must conduct Covid-19 self-assessment prior to arriving on campus and
attending class.
Safety Plan for Employees and students:
All students and employees will follow the latest COVID precautions, guidance,
expectations, and restrictions as set out by KPU, WorkSafeBC, and BC’s Chief Public
Health Officer. Students and employees must wear a cloth medical or cloth non-medical
mask in indoor common spaces on all KPU campuses. This includes but not limited to:
classrooms, hallways, corridors, washrooms, lounges, elevators, atria and study areas,
the Libraries, and the Bookstore. When you are outdoors on campus, please wear a mask
unless you can guarantee that you can stay at least 2m/6ft away from others at all times.
The safety plan will comply with the BC Government, Provincial Health Officer, and
WorkSafeBC guidance and directives regarding COVID-19 safe work practices. This is
anticipated to include:
1. Educating students on the safety plan and required protocols.
a. Covid-19 early symptoms and the need to stay home if symptoms are present
or if they
have had contact with individuals known to have contracted Covid-
19.
b. Handwashing.
c. Use of PPE.
d. Disinfecting.
e. Distancing.
f. Own sewing kit.
g. Reporting concerns.
2. Handwashing:
a. Upon entering the building, prior to entering the labs.
b. Within the labs prior to and after using machines; prior to and after handling
of textile
reams.
c. Prior to and after consuming food or drink outside the labs during breaks.
d. Upon completing work within the labs before leaving the building.
3. Use of PPE:
a. Masks must be worn at ALL times.
b. Gloves to be worn when using the shared irons or specialty machines.
4. Disinfecting:
a. Upon entering the lab and prior to leaving the lab, all tables, chairs, work
surfaces and equipment that were used.
b. While working within the lab, prior to and after using any machine, cutting
table or
equipment that is shared.
v.2 July 14, 2020 4
5. Distancing:
a. Maintaining a minimum of 2m distance between students and between
students and faculty during movement in/out of the space, within the space
and during breaks. Masks will be worn at all times.
b. Entry to the building will be via the main campus entrance. Movement
through the
causeway to WSD will be marked with each side of the corridor
having unidirectional traffic flow. Transition to the 3
rd
floor will be marked
as up via the south stairwell nearest the Dean’s Office and down via the
north stairwell. Elevators will be single
occupancy for those who require or
choose use of an elevator.
c. Entry and exit to rooms 3920 and 3960 (sewing labs) will be through different doors
that are clearly marked. Entry and exit in room 3980 is through a single door. The
door
to 3980 will remain open when people are working within this area to ensure
clear view
of people approaching from either side of the door.
d. One student per table and spacing between machines (3920/3960) or work zones
(3980) will be established, assigned and marked. DETA 5300 will be the only class
using
these sewing labs for Fall 2020. Students will be assigned a table within room
3920 or
room 3960 and the class will be split between these two rooms for
prototyping work to enable adequate distancing between tables. Maximum
occupancy in 3920 and 3960
will be 9 per room: 6 students max and up to 3 KPU
employees (instructors/staff).
e. Students who require specialty machines in 3980 will sign up for use of specific
zones within that room and will wear a mask while working in 3980. There are 6
designated zones within the room. Maximum occupancy of 3980 will be 5 per
room: 4 students max and one KPU employee (instructor/staff), with one student
only per marked zone
within 3980.
6. Own sewing kit:
a. Each student must bring and use their own sewing kit. Scissors, needles, bobbins,
etc. are not to be shared.
7. Signage:
a. Posters supplied by KPU will be put up as reminders for distancing, hand washing,
and maximum room occupancy at entrance/exit to each room.
b. Posters will be put up as reminders for disinfecting and hand washing upon arrival
and prior to departure.
c. Directional arrows and signage will be put up to guide the intended directional traffic
flow, table
assignments, and work zones. Stairwells, elevators, doorways and
assigned tables/machines.
d. Signage will be put up at the entrance to 3980 to remind that masks are
required at all times.
8. Reporting:
v.2 July 14, 2020 5
a. Students who have concerns regarding their safety or the safety of others, or concerns
regarding the safety protocols or the implementation will be encouraged to report this
first to faculty or lab staff, or if that is not felt to be safe, to the Office of the Dean.
