Strategic Plan Item Regarding screening/assessment
Presenter
Kerri Pope
Minutes
Strategic Plan section 1.1.5 – incorporated preparedness-focused instrument for online enrollment process by:
1) adding instructions to the website with links to instruments (i.e. the Am I Ready? Quiz & the Technical Skills Checklist)
a) Question: Could this be added as a link in Self Service so students would be more likely to see it?
i) No, Enrollment Mgmt perceives that as an additional barrier/step
ii) It is being added as a link on the homepage
2) creating Bb quiz versions of the instruments to be used at the beginning of the course
a) This is optional for instructors & we know how we will get faculty to use it, yet
b) Want to make this a requirement (??) for instructors, makes this the instructor’s responsibility
c) Would also be a good tool for referring students to academic coaching within the first 3 days of the term
d) Ideally, these tools could show up as soon as the course opens to students and nothing else would be available to them within the course
e) This could be built into a template for courses, but that would require faculty to use the new template
f) Suggested add: friendly reminders with wrong answer feedback (suggestions for other prep/skills workshops/offerings for students based on their answers)
i) This would also take the responsibility off the faculty member for providing appropriate referrals
