General Themes

① Changing student behavior & streamlining college practices.

② Greater use of technology to serve more students.

③ Greater degree of centralization for system—more control for Chancellor’s Office.

④ More impact on students on the front end.

⑤ Strategically ”rationing education”.

⑥ Get students through more quickly and get out those who are not making progress toward a specific goal.

⑦ Accountability, new data metrics

Page 4: Implementing the Student Success  Task Force Recommendations

General Themes in Context

① Changing student behavior & streamlining college practices.

Recent changes? Student behavior:

Withdrawal policies >> changes in drop dates Limits on W and repetition for a substandard grade >> each take

is high stakes

College behavior/practices: Repeatability

Page 5: Implementing the Student Success  Task Force Recommendations

General Themes in Context Federal financial aid:

Federal financial aid will cover no more than two “takes”

Note: federal financial aid will cover additional “takes” if a substandard grade is earned, but only if the grade is an F (state and federal definitions differ)

CRITICAL that colleges be alerting students to all of these changes – as well as those that have not yet been implemented.

College culture needs to change in advance of full implementation of the SSTF recommendations.

Page 6: Implementing the Student Success  Task Force Recommendations

General Themes in Context

② Greater use of technology to serve more students. Some college exploration, nothing happening

centrally – yet What technological “solutions” could best support our

students today?

③ Greater degree of centralization for system—more control for Chancellor’s Office.

Legislation that would have decreased the role of DOF did not move forward

No changes - yet

Page 7: Implementing the Student Success  Task Force Recommendations

General Themes in Context

④ More impact on students on the front end.

⑤ Strategically ”rationing education”. Enrollment priorities?

⑥ Get students through more quickly and get out those who are not making progress toward a specific goal.

Enrollment priorities? BOG waiver changes? Transfer degrees?

Accountability

Scorecard

Public transparency

Implementation of SB 1456

… Governor Brown signed Senate Bill 1456, the Student Success Act of 2012. This bill establishes the framework to implement several Student Success Task Force recommendations, specifically the Student Success Initiative (re-purposing of Matriculation) and Board of Governors Fee Waiver academic conditions.

Page 10: Implementing the Student Success  Task Force Recommendations

Lowenthal – SB 1456

Substantial modifications to existing Ed Code language pertaining to matriculation.

BOGFW – (B) meet academic and progress standards

Page 11: Implementing the Student Success  Task Force Recommendations

Lowenthal – SB 1456

“student’s responsibilities” Identify educational goal upon enrollment Declare specific course of study within a reasonable

time Attend class and complete assignments Maintain progress

“institution’s responsibility” Provide student services – orientation, assessment,

counseling and ed planning, referral to needed and available support services..

Page 12: Implementing the Student Success  Task Force Recommendations

Lowenthal – SB 1456

“institution’s responsibility” (continued) (E) Evaluation of each student’s progress and

referral to appropriate interventions.. 78213. (d) When the board of governors

adopts a system of common assessment, community colleges may use supplemental measures for placement..

78214. Accountability

Page 13: Implementing the Student Success  Task Force Recommendations

Lowenthal – SB 1456

78215 – Requires all nonexempt students to complete orientation and assessment and to develop education plans.

(b) these policies shall be phased in over a reasonable time as determined by the BoG….

78216. BoG shall develop a formula for allocating funding.. Requires use of common assessment and scorecard.

Implementation of SB 1456

Webinars, website, and E-Mail dedicated to providing information and answering questions

Groups to be convened: Matriculation Title 5 revision (Convene 10/31-11/1 or 2)

Matriculation MIS and Allocation Formula (Convene 10/30)

Student Equity (Convene Late January 2013) Program Reporting (Convene Late January 2013) BOG Fee Waiver (TBA)

Page 15: Implementing the Student Success  Task Force Recommendations

Matriculation Issues to be Addressed

Reporting requirements were waived due to “flexing” of funds

Presently unclear how many students receive a full array of matriculation services Accurate and consistent reporting is needed

How do we increase capacity absent funding to do so?

Definitions Initial education plan Vs comprehensive (for example)

Page 16: Implementing the Student Success  Task Force Recommendations

Basic Skills Summit

Developed vision for “Poppy Copy II” Focus on lessons learned/institutional and

cultural change Guiding Principles and Values

Student-focused Integrated Reality check

Enrollment Priorities, recommendation 3.1 Title 5 language was adopted by the BoG Date certain for implementation

Page 23: Implementing the Student Success  Task Force Recommendations

Enrollment Priorities - Overview

Level I – Groups mandated in Ed Code foster youth veterans

Level II – Groups mentioned in Title 5 DSPS students who need accommodations EOPS students

Level III – New students who have been through matric, continuing students in good standing, and less than 100 units

Page 24: Implementing the Student Success  Task Force Recommendations

Some Details

Only Level I must be implemented during summer and intersession.

All degree-applicable units count towards the 100 unit limit.

Loss of priority may be imposed after the student is back in good standing.

Time certain for implementation – registration for Fall 2014.

Page 25: Implementing the Student Success  Task Force Recommendations

Next Steps: State

ASCCC is monitoring & participating

Normal governance procedures at state level: Consultation Council

Or for strictly academic matters, the ASCCC has recommending authority for 10 + 1 areas

Page 26: Implementing the Student Success  Task Force Recommendations

Next Steps: Local

Prerequisites: consider opportunities to implement appropriate pre

reqs. (Course sequencing).

Three “takes” of a course What messages do you have for students?

What messages do you have for full-time AND part-time faculty?

What interventions do you have in place?

Page 27: Implementing the Student Success  Task Force Recommendations

Prepare locally for regulation changes:

Look at policies & practices for assessment, placement, registration priorities.

Consider forming committee.

ASCCC and BOG of Exemplary Award to honor outstanding assessment practices

Page 28: Implementing the Student Success  Task Force Recommendations

Continuous Improvement of Instruction

Explore new delivery methods Investigate scheduling options (also helps

with three “takes”) Examine curricular processes for obstacles

that prevent or slow faculty responses to local needs

Page 29: Implementing the Student Success  Task Force Recommendations

Basic Skills Instruction

Rewrite curriculum – contextualization, better distinction of levels from CB21 coding, compressed courses

Participate in training and professional development when possible

Innovation at one college is not equal to innovation at another college

Be true to your faculty and students Examine noncredit as a possibility
