Part of the requirements for this Collaborative Title V is to develop a “Student Access and Success Research Center” that will help us make data driven decisions about how our curriculum is working. To that end this is the first of several tools that faculty can use to evaluate changes in their curriculum. Remember, these tools will only work on campus machines. (See those involved) Also on this page you will find two flow charts, one that represents a working concept for the next tool and one that represents the work being done concerning one of the Core Competencies. Feel free to “check it out” and comment on this work. |

Persistence and Success 1/2010
This tool identifies a group of students who passed a target course in a particular semester (the cohort). The tool then identifies the number of students in that cohort who: 1. persisted (enrolled) in a second course and 2. the semester they enrolled in the second course and 3. whether or not they were successful (grade of A, B, C, Pass) in the second course.
The tool also identifies the number of students in the cohort who received an AA or certificate during the identified time span and how many students had to repeat the course.
When you have tried out this tool please let me know about how the tool worked and any new tools that you might want or how we might change the tool to make it better. Stan Crane scrane@hartnell.edu |

Flow chart for Core Competency
Research Question:
Core Competency
This flow chart is a work in process that is being used to develop a process to identify assessable and data driven core competencies. It has become clear that the core competencies that were written were too vague and need to be narrowed and redeveloped. This process along with the work done by the faculty in reading student writing to validate the process is leading us to a clearer understanding of how to write a defendable core competency and identify clear core competencies.
