current processes. A slight decline in results from previous APR; however, due to a change in mandatory participation in welfare-to-work for some students may account for absence for the summer semester. All continuing students submitted an FGR upon return for the fall 2011 semester (post-assessment). Continue current process.

CalWORKs #2

Upon completion of their program, CalWORKs students will have visited the OCC Career Center and identified their occupational goal and the educational path necessary to achieve that objective. Supports the ISLOs of communication; thinking; personal development and responsibility.

Means of Assessment: Students will be assessed once per academic year, during the spring semester, to verify if they have visited the campus Career Center and have an identified occupational goal that is supported by their Student Education Plan (SEP). Criteria for Success: Students will submit (to the CalWORKs office) a visit confirmation initialed by Career Center staff, as well as a SEP identifying an occupational/educational goal. When assessed: Fall 2010

CalWORKs #3

CalWORKs students on academic/progress probation will demonstrate knowledge of learning skills and ability to utilize college resources which will assist them to reach good academic standing. Supports the ISLO of Personal Development and Responsibility.

Means of Assessment: In spring of 2011, CalWORKs students were surveyed to quantify their understanding of the institutional policies regarding academic and progress probation and/or disqualification. Each spring, students who are on academic and/or progress probation will be identified and the targeted students will be required to attend an additional appointment with the CalWORKs Coordinator in order to pinpoint appropriate interventions and to develop a probation plan that will assist the students in achieving acceptable academic standing. Criteria for Success: After two standard semesters, a student on probation will attain satisfactory academic standing. When assessed: Spring 2011

Responses from the survey indicate most students have an understanding of the CCCD policies for satisfactory achievement and progress (refer to Appendix A). During the four-semester assessment period (fall of 2009 through spring of 2011), a total of 191 unduplicated students were monitored for SAP, utilizing both self-submitted FGR reports and verification through Banner. 27.75% (53/191) students demonstrated less than a 2.00 GPA at the end of a term and were referred to an Academic Counselor, the Success Center, Tutoring, PASS groups, as well as Smarthinking for additional academic support. 35.85% (19/53) at-risk students, seemingly benefited from campus resources and were able to bring their GPA to 2.00; while 62.26% (33/53) were unsuccessful in increasing their GPA and were either dismissed from the college, chose not to enroll for the

Encourage students to review Orange Coast College Catalog or website to become familiar with CCCD policies; include web link in welcome email to first semester students (new process). Due to the transitory nature of CalWORKs student enrollment at OCC, and because the college already has processes in place to monitor academic and progress success (duplication of efforts), this PSLO will not be continued for the next APR cycle. Too many variables regarding a student’s disenrollment at OCC following a lack of SAP prevents a precise assessment, and making assumptions does not benefit the students served or the CalWORKs program in general. However, as it is a requirement of the CalWORKs Program to ensure a student remains in good standing with the college, collection of Final Grade Reports will continue and will be maintained in student’s individual case record. A

Children’s Center #2

Parents will identify their child’s development, skills and strengths. Supports the ISLO’s of communication, thinking skills, and personal development and responsibility.

Means of Assessment: At the end of fall and spring semesters, student parents will be given a developmental assessment summary of their child’s level of development and skills in all areas (cognitive, language, social emotional, and motor) Criteria for Success: Student-parents will meet with a lead teacher to discuss their child’s completed Desired Results Developmental Profile assessment tool for each child twice a year as required with our California Department of Education contract. When assessed: Fall 2010

Data Results: Fall 2010 parent conferences were held in January 2011. All seven classrooms were above 72% with parent participation. Infants – 80% Toddlers – 82% Young Preschool – 86% Preschool 1 – 75% Preschool 2 – 72% Preschool 3 – 95% Preschool 4 – 77% Overall 81% was the average of the Center. Spring 2011 parent conferences will be May/June.

Results show that the Center was able to increase parent participation from last year (65%) to 81%. We reached beyond our goal of 75%. This may also indicate that the Center has been able to communicate the value of data parents receive about their child’s development in these conferences. This was emphasized more this year at Parent Orientation nights, monthly newsletters and director memos.

Children’s Center #3

Student Parents will understand new eligibility regulations to maintain their subsidized child care while successfully completing their educational plan. (This is a compliance requirement of the contract with the California Department of Education.) Supports the ISLO’s of communication, thinking skills, and personal development and responsibility.

Means of Assessment: Spring 2010, CalWORKS student parents had to learn about, apply for and meet eligibility requirements to be able to move onto the California Department of Education contract due to state budget cuts to Cal Works Child Care funding ending June 30, 2010. 18 families were affected (20 children). The Center provides a special parent Orientation in fall for subsidized contracted student parents to extensively cover the new rules, regulations and policies of the Center. All parents are given a Parent handbook as a resource guide of policies. A Parent Survey will be conducted again in spring 2011 to evaluate understanding of policies. Criteria for Success: Student Parents maintain their subsidized child care while successfully completing their educational plan. When assessed:

Data Results: July 1 2010, 15 Cal Work’s students were moved to the California Department of Education (CDE) contract based on their eligibility and the loss of Cal Works child care funding. 3 were not eligible and one of these 3 is now a full cost tuition student. Of these 15 students all retained their eligibility for fall 2010. Two of these students left our program in January for Nursing programs in New Mexico. (3 children) (Both parents has GPA’s over 3.5 and had been scholarship recipients) At the end of fall semester 2010, 7 subsidized families have been put on probation for either grades, GPA below 2.0, or dropping below 6 required units.

The results of Cal Works students all retaining their subsidized care is mainly due to their understanding of what is required of them for maintaining eligibility. The CDE contract policies are quite different and more stringent than the Cal Works requirements they previously had. They were already familiar with our program in regard to their children and Center policies. A Parent Survey is planned in late spring to assess understanding of policies. Tracking the 7 students on probation and checking mid-semester grades will also be implemented. Proposed budget cuts for last quarter April 2011 or new fiscal year 2011-12 starting June 1 may significantly change this SLO.

With the implementation of Banner, students will utilize the self- services available to them on-line. Supports the ISLOs of personal development and responsibility and thinking skills.

Means of Assessment: At least 80% of the students should take advantage of the online registration process available 24/7 via the web on MyOCC. Criteria for Success: Students will demonstrate they have knowledge by using the services available to them. When assessed: Fall 2010

Sample size and findings: Total headcount for the Fall 2010 term was 25,033 22,192 students registered via web services provided (MyOCC) for a total of 88.7% 2,841 students registered in person using the Enrollment Center for a total of 11.3% Total headcount for the Spring 2011 term is 23,901.

What does the data tell us about program improvement: The goal that 80% of students would utilize web services using MyOCC was met in the Fall 2010 term. (88.7%) With continued advertising and student education on how to use MyOCC, These numbers are expected to continue to increase The Spring 2011 data showed that 95.7% of students utilized MyOCC for registration

Enrollment Center #2

With 24/7 access to their educational records via MyOCC, students will make appropriate and timely educational decisions. Supports the ISLOs of personal development and responsibility, and thinking skills.

Means of Assessment: Student knowledge of their records will be obtained through student surveys and computer access logs. Criteria for Success: Students access their records, registration, and other services electronically. With in-person services available in the Enrollment Center, students without internet and computer access (apx. 10%) will be able to successfully complete tasks such as adds/drops, transcript requests, refund processing. When assessed: Spring 2011

Sample and Findings: The Enrollment Center used an in person survey during the Summer 2011 term to determine why students still choose to use in-person services vs. online services. N = 364 students The data suggests that most students that used in-person services did so because they had a preference to do so. Although transcripts can be ordered online, those that chose to order in-person did so because they wanted to have person-to-person contact and wanted an “on the spot” transcript vs. having it mailed to a specific destination. Other reasons that students chose in-person include, hold clearances, residency document submissions, and students making payments via check/money order that do not

Data from the Summer 2011 survey suggests the following: The Enrollment Center must continue to find ways to improve the technology used on campus with students and the MyOCC student program. Though most tasks can be completed online, (adds, drops, transcript requests, fee payments, enrollment verifications, etc..) there will still be a need for in-person services for services that cannot be automated. This includes, but is not limited to; residency documents submission, verifications of dates of birth, VISA information submission and payments made by check/money order. The Enrollment Center must continue to offer a regular daily schedule of hours of operation to serve our students.

With in-person services available in the Enrollment Center, students without internet and computer access (apx. 10%) will successfully complete tasks such as adds/drops, transcript requests, refund processing. Supports the ISLOs of personal development and responsibility, and thinking skills.

Means of Assessment: Data will be collected from in-person surveys, an online survey, and focus groups in the Spring 2011 semester. Criteria for Success: Students will access their records, registration, and other in-person services offered in the Enrollment Center. When assessed: Spring 2011

Sample and Findings With the assistance of Institutional Research, and a group of Doctoral Students that agreed to assist the OCC Enrollment Center in a Consultancy Capacity a student survey was implemented and assessed during the fall 2009 term. The data collected was determined to be a good representative sample of 1,686 student responses and can therefore be used appropriately in assessing the Enrollment Center. The scoring table was as follows: 4.5-5.0 = A+ 4.0-4.49= A- 3.5-3.99= B+ 3.0-3.49= B- 2.5-2.99=C+ 2.0-2.49=C – In-person services in the Enrollment Center averaged scores of 3.0 and above in the ability to accomplish tasks in-person. Less than 7% of those surveyed were at the 2.5 level and below.

Overall data suggests the following: The Enrollment Center must continue to find ways to improve in-person services to students. Students overall were satisfied at an above average rate, and had many suggestions for improvement of services which included: A: Opening more help windows during peak times B: Opening longer hours and on Saturdays C: Some students felt that the “wait times” in line were too long The Enrollment Center will continue to determine how we can best use student suggestions listed above. Due to the major budget cuts, we will not be able to open longer hours or on Saturdays. Our hours of operation may be reduced from 9 hours daily to 6 hours daily depending on funding deficits.

Out of 730 active students, only 18 students lost their status. Fall 2010: The Center has had approximately, 96% success rate in this area. Out of 680, approximately 24 students lost their status

Information is provided through orientations, e-mails, workshops, etc. The Center has increased the frequency of reminders to students through e-mails and follow-up phone calls. The goal of the Center is achieving PSLO of 90%. The decrease in PSLO in Fall 2010 could be as a result of a reduction in class offerings which affects full-time enrollment. In addition to monitoring, the Center frequently faces errors in MIS reporting which makes the reporting requirements more difficilut. For example, recently about 40 international students did not appear on the enrolled active list.

International Center #2

Cultural Awareness: Students will become familiar with other students’ cultures and customs. ISLO Link: Global awareness, personal development and responsibility, and communication.

Means of Assessment: Learning outcome is assessed through surveys. The Center plans to increase participation in activities and have a learning ratio of 80% or higher. This, of course depends on resources such as funding and staffing throughout the year for planning purposes as well as availability of staff and funding for each activity. Criteria for Success: A minimum of 80% of participants will indicate gained knowledge of other cultures and customs. When assessed: Fall 2010

During each activity, students receive a survey to explain how well they learned about other cultures. The Center considers successfully achieving intended learning outcome if the student responds ‘excellent’ or ‘good’ in that particular category. The Center held a variety of activities. The SLO for each activity was: Cultural Presentations: Respondents: 38 PSLO met: 100% Movie Nights: Respondents: 50 PSLO met: 92% Luncheon: Respondents: 8 PSLO met: 50% Dinner: Respondents: 18 PSLO met: 94%

Additional funding and staffing is required to increase PSOLs, especially in the area of activities and programming. The Center reviews these results to assess which activities should be offered more often and which activities should be enhanced or possibly be eliminated. For example, reviewing the various events and the PSLO results, it is apparent that more students like to attend movie nights and the PSLO is highest for Cultural Presentations. The Center should plan more activities of such nature. In fact, the Center does not offer the ‘meeting luncheons’ at this time. This is because only a few people attended these workshops and the PSLO was very low.

Upon completion of orientation, students will demonstrate satisfaction of information provided on drop and refund deadlines. Supports the ISLO of personal development and responsibility.

Means of Assessment: Learning outcome is assessed through surveys. Those students who attended in-person and on-line orientation, rated their level of understating in this area after the orientation. While the Program must strive to obtain as high of a score as possible in this area, students’ learning is further enhanced after students actually enroll in classes. This is due to the fact that on-going communication takes place through MyOCC. Criteria: Students will add and drop classes by the deadline(s). When assessed:

Sample and findings: In the Fall 2010, over 4500 students who attended on-line orientation responded to this survey. Thr results included the following: 81% rated their understanding 5 (excellent) or 4. Out of 116 students who completed in-person orientation, the results were as follows: 69% rated their understanding either a 5 or 4.

This data demonstrates significant difference in this area between on-line and in-person orrienattions. While the audience in in-person orientations is different, providing additional information, directing students to on-line literature, and additional focus in this area is important. New Assessment: The better assessment will be to include the number of appleas (for fees and other drop deadlines) with comparison to the total population. Such assessment method will provide a more real picture of the learning outcome in this area

Upon completion of the placement test, students will understand their current skill levels in English and mathematics. Supports the ISLO of thinking skills.

Means of Assessment: Students completing placement tests were asked to complete a pen and paper survey, gauging students’ understanding of the placement results. Criteria for Success: The goal of the Center must be to achieve at least 90% PSLO in this area. In addition, the Center must close the gap by providing literature to provide to those students who may not have this understanding. When assessed: ???

Sample and Findings: In Fall 2010, 152 students responded to specific questions with regards to Math, English and Chemistry testing. The results were as follows: The Center had 92% learning outcome in Math, 91% in English, and 32% in Chemistry. Out of 730 active students, only 18 students lost their status. In addition, more than 4500 students responded to this question (combination of all tests) in an on-line survey. 75% of these students scored 5 (excellent) or 4 when asked if they knew how to use their placement scores.

The Center has scored very high in the area of Math and English. The Chemistry testing is low due to the fact that not too many students take the Chemistry test. This was not clarified in the survey. Many who did not take the Chemistry test, scored this area low. The Center should create literature to provide to all students after the test in order to close this gap. Those students who do not understand their placement results can read this material. This information can also be enhanced on the Center’s website. More information on the on-line module can also be helpful to increase the PSLO for those who complete the on-line orientation.
