Institutional Improvement What are your strengths and challenges in these areas?What steps can you take to overcome your challenges and leverage your strengths?

Using Data: Understanding Who Our Students Are and Making Data-Driven Decisions

What story is your data telling you?

Aha Moments! Next steps

NORTHWEST – TAKE AWAYS Rethink the use of “developmental education” vs.

“student success” Don’t reinvent the wheel . . . talk to other

institutions Create a schedule of town hall meetings to

communicate developmental education initiatives The Ohio two-year colleges are trying to prepare a

coordinated position on Achieving the Dream We need to collect more data Confirmed my intent and desire to establish a

Student Success committee that invites members from all academic and student affairs divisions/departments and that includes students, faculty, staff, and administrators

NORTHWEST – FUTURE MEETINGS Inclusion of technical faculty in the

discussions

Allow more time for sharing developmental education best practices from each college

Create a list of meeting or anticipated meeting “outcomes” and send that list to us before the meeting so we can work toward achieving some clearly understood outcomes. An outcomes based meeting will probably help us to use our time more judiciously

NORTHWEST – TOP TEN 1. Communication and Collaboration make everything happen2. Faculty matter - Core Team expanded to include faculty/ faculty

leader/ faculty development3. Data analysis counts4. “Students don’t do optional” - policies are needed (no late

registration, orientation, pre-requisites, student success class)

5. Go to the experts – read, attend conferences, bring them in; try it: Supplemental Instruction; Collaborative Learning; My Labs

6. Location matters (tutoring center, counseling, etc.)7. Student Ambassadors are an integral resource

(peer mentors, peer leaders)8. Outreach matters– tutors, instructional specialists go to classrooms9. Learning communities – there’s more to it than pairing courses10. Training matters - sessions for tutors with Instructional Specialists

and Dev Ed faculty (tutors include adjunct faculty, part-timers, etc.)

PLANNING AN ACTIVITY IN YOUR STATE OR REGION

PLAN YOUR “SCALE UP” APPROACH Identify the entity in your state or region

that could take the "convener" role that OACC plays for Ohio

Consider the feasibility of scheduling an "all colleges" meeting to kick things off, any potential locations

How could you organize and assign the non-AtD Colleges in your state/region?

Consider potential time(s) of year to host college-to-college meetings

Identify unique barriers or challenges for your state/region

NEXT STEPS

FOLLOWING UP – USING FEEDBACK TO SHAPE NEXT STEPS Participants emphasized need for additional

State-level meetings

Expressed desire to learn about the work of AtD and more broadly engage the student success agenda

Desire to learn what is going on at other institutions

Participants question the utility of additional regional meetings at the current juncture

Greater engagement of faculty
