  1. Data-Informed Faculty Development Planning Howard Community College August 17, 2012 Shelley A. Chapman, PhD

  2. Plan for this Session Using IDEA to help • Individual Faculty • Groups of Faculty

  3. Reflective Practice using Individual Reports Suggest new ideas to try Help them use the FIF well Invite Conversations Help them interpret Individual reports Help them use IDEA resources that are keyed to reports

  4. Recommended:Diagnostic Form More data Specific suggested action steps based on research IDEA resources (no cost) are keyed to reports

  5. I. Individual Faculty 1. Individual Consultations • Faculty Information Form • How to select objectives • Adjusted and Converted scores • Suggested Actions

  6. 2. Help them Learn How to Log their Results on the Faculty Worksheet

  7. Reflective Practice using Individual Reports Suggest new ideas to try Help them use the FIF well Invite Conversations Help them interpret Individual reports Help them use IDEA resources that are keyed to reports

  8. Suggested Action Steps from Page 3 3. Help Faculty Make Connections to Free Resources that may help them Improve #16 #18 #19

  9. IDEA Website

  10. POD-IDEA Notes Background Helpful Hints Assessment References and Resources

  11. Reflective Practice using Individual Reports Suggest new ideas to try Help them use the FIF well Invite Conversations Help them interpret Individual reports Help them use IDEA resources that are keyed to reports

  12. 4. Encourage “Conversations” about IDEA • Coffee and Conversations • Paired Discussions • Classroom “Visitations” • Brown Bag Lunch/Supper Conversations • Testimonials at End-of-year Faculty Meetings

  13. Encourage the Use of the IDEA Help Community Search for information Ask specific questions Talk to other clients who use IDEA Share ideas about how to use IDEA

  14. II. Groups of Faculty 1. Workshops (Sample Topics) • Incorporating IDEA into a Syllabus • How to Select “Important” or “Essential” Objectives • Encouraging High Response Rates • Interpreting Reports (Adjusted & Converted Scores, Contextual data, etc.) • How to get better ratings: Focus on learning • How to use POD IDEA Center Notes

  15. 2. Use IDEA for feedback on Faculty Development “Courses” • Example: Faculty Summer Institute at PLNU Using IDEA for Faculty Development at Point Loma Nazarene University tile

  16. Using IDEA for Faculty Development at Point Loma Nazarene University Integrating IDEA with the TILE Program tile

  17. Model the Good Use of IDEA • tile • Consult IDEA research for planning TILE activities • Correlation Studies • Relationship between Methods and Learning Objectives • Relationship between Methods and Global Items (Excellence of Course and Excellence of Teacher)

  18. Relationship of Teaching Methods to Learning Objectives Use Proactively to Plan Faculty Development Learning Activities • tile

  19. Relationship of Teaching Methods to Global Items Use Proactively to Plan Faculty Development Learning Activities • tile

  20. Learning Objectives • tile • How to select “important” or “essential” IDEA objectives related to the course • Use the Teaching Goals Inventory to help select objectives: Use the Three Guiding Questions • Is this a significant part of the course? • Do you do something specific to help students accomplish this objective? • Is progress on it part of their grade?

  21. Incorporating IDEA into Syllabus • tile • Show examples of how faculty put IDEA Objectives in their syllabi with their specific course objectives. Example: My three objectives are for you to • learn to analyze and critically evaluate ideas, arguments, and points of view. • • To do this, you will be reading and critiquing scholarly articles and participating in class discussions. • develop skill in expressing yourself in writing. • • To do this, you will propose a written research project in APA format. • learn how to find and use resources. • • To do this, you will use scholarly books and articles for your research proposal.

  22. Bloom’s Taxonomy and IDEA BLOOM’S TAXONOMY 6 10, 11 10, 11 3, 8, 9 2, 7 1

  23. Average Ratings for Objectives

  24. Week 3: CATs and Midterm Feedback • tile Think about your IDEA objectives and create a midterm evaluation just for yourself. Ask questions that get at whether they feel they are making progress on the types of objectives you said are relevant.

  25. IDEA Response Rates • tile • Talk about ways to boost response rates: • Can’t “set it and forget it” • Create a culture of reflective practice • Show sample report • Put objectives is syllabus • Talk about how you use student feedback • Explain its reciprocal value

  26. End-of-TILE Assessment • Administer the Diagnostic Form to participants • Instructors use the FIF in a way to assess team teaching • tile

  27. 3. Using IDEA in a Curriculum Caucus

  28. General Education 1Based partly on study of percent of classes selecting objectives by discipline

  29. What learning are we targeting? IDEA Learning Objectives

  30. What learning are we targeting? IDEA Learning Objectives

  31. Using GSRs to Analyze Targeted Learning

  32. How do students rate their learning?GSR page 3

  33. Do Students’ report of learning meet our expectations? Objective 1: Gaining factual knowledge (terminology, classifications, methods, trends) GSR, Pages 5 and 6

  34. Which Teaching Methods Should We Target for Improvement? % of Classes Where Method was “Infrequently” Used

  35. 4. Use Data from IDEA to Target Specific Needs

  36. HCC General Education Goals and IDEA

  37. Example: Pre-Pharmacy

  38. Example: Pre-Pharmacy

  39. Overall Progress Ratings (Courses) Page 3 Percent of Classes at or Above the IDEA database Average

  40. Relationship of Teaching Methods to Global Items Plan workshops to target needs

  41. Correlation of Teaching Method Items to Summary Items

  42. Other Considerations • Consider sending faculty to the IDEA User Group Meeting to do presentations • Consider becoming a member of POD and joining these conversations on the international level • Design a Faculty Development Day around some of these ideas
