  4. G.E. Transformation • November 30, 2017 – Individual courses must be submitted to College Curriculum Committees • January 31, 2018 – Pathways must be submitted to College Curriculum Committees • Summer 2017 Professional Development • Institute to design thematic pathways • Institute on developing & supporting assignments for writing intensive courses • Fall 2017 – workshops on the GLOs, the designations, and the first-year seminar

  5. Q2S & GI 2025: Better Together

  6. Key Components of GI 2025 • Progressive Pedagogy/Enhanced Instruction – support faculty in studying and implementing equity-minded, evidence-based teaching practices to increase student success • Advising – implement cross-divisional Student Success Team (SST) model that includes faculty academic advisors, professional advisors, career services counselors, and associate deans.

  7. Q2S Support for Enhanced Instruction in Semester Courses • Up to $1500 will be available to each faculty member, both full- and part-time (with at least a one-year appointment), for participating in professional development opportunities that will contribute to enhanced pedagogy in semester courses. • Professional Development that would be automatically approved: • TRC/ATI/Q2S workshops, institutes, etc. • Conferences/workshops/institutes on teaching, learning, and assessment (similar to TSSA requirements) • Bringing an outside expert to work with a program/department • Faculty can apply for funds as a group or individually

  8. Q2S Advising Needs • Identify quarter completers and semester completers; • Make sure students create plans to graduate on time (quarter completers) and without loss of progress (semester completers); • Make sure courses are offered in ways that allow students to follow their plans; and • Develop and implement a strategy for advising, that utilizes the student success team model with clearly defined roles, priorities, and outcomes

  9. Campus Conversation on Advising • This was the first step in an effort to figure out how teams of faculty and professional advisors can work together coherently and efficiently. • The responses generated at this conversation will provide the starting point for developing the outcomes and priorities for advising that meet the needs of both Q2S and GI 2025. • Major take-aways: • We need better mechanisms for communication among advisors with all types of roles • We need to clarify our various roles • We need more “cross-training” opportunities

  10. Q2S Support for Advising • Summer 2017 Institute and year-long project funded by Title III grant for CNS faculty and advisors to study, develop, and pilot some models for teams to work together. • Disseminate their findings and support other colleges to develop and implement their own plans

  11. Advising Plans: Some Questions to Consider • How will you identify your quarter completers and your semester completers? • How will you assist, encourage (and even require!) each group to use the Coyote Planner to plan their path to graduation (for GE and the major)? • How will you encourage (even require!) them to seek advising? • How are you going to partner with the professional advisors in your College and/or Undergraduate Studies to accomplish your advising goals? • What are your ultimate goals for each group of students? • How will you help them stay on track/follow their plans? • Who is responsible for what? Role & responsibilities of faculty advisors? Role & responsibilities for professional advisors? • What are your priorities, timelines, and milestones for each group of students?

  12. Important Due Dates • Advising Plans for Quarter Completers – End of Fall 2017 • Post-Curriculum Development Work (including Advising plans for Semester completers): • Track 1: Jan. 31, 2018 • Track 2: June 30, 2018 • Track 3: Jan 31, 2019

  13. Next Steps for Q2SCSC • Weekly Time-Block Schedule – Getting feedback now on some options; hope to get campus-wide feedback first thing in Fall quarter and make a decision ASAP. • Academic Calendar – Begin campus conversations as soon as time-blocks have been determined

  17. High-Impact Educational Practices (HIPs) • Institutional level – focus on one or two that are supported centrally and tied to the strategic plan • Program level • GE –first-year seminar, learning communities (FYW), writing intensive courses, diversity & global designations • Programs – those that are most relevant to your discipline; integration at this level means the HIP included in a course is there, no matter who teaches the course • Course level – those that are most relevant to the content of the course and are integrated at the individual instructor’s discretion
