Navigating

Gray Area Where Research Meets Politics
Location: Grandover

Description:
When data is used to inform
decisions, stakeholders have much
more incentive to selectively present the best data for their desired
outcomes.
Insiders and community members also expect to receive statistics on
salaries,
success rate, and demographics to contemplate best practices for
presenting an
accurate data report on an issue that may be contentious; balancing
transparency with confidentiality for internal and external audiences
and
responding to misuse of data by outside users.

Workshop:
Automating
the Nuts and Bolts of IE and
Getting Results Fast
Location: Victoria C
Description:
This session will present a suite of
Microsoft Access databases
that automate the assessment process for planning, student learning
outcomes
(SLO), academic program reviews, and administrative self-studies. This
suite’s
effectiveness will include an overview and demonstration of each
system,
followed by an in-depth view of the student learning outcomes process.
In fall
2012 MCC held the first annual all-college SLO finding that was on one
"of
significance." The "show and tell" was enlightening in many ways
and especially rewarding from an IE perspective to observe faculty
enthusiasm,
ownership of the process and discussions of student learning from new
lenses.
Two years later, after initial faculty resistance, the SLO process has
evolved
as a new mechanism to help faculty improve student learning. This
presentation
will describe how automation and other activities fostered MCC's growth
in
getting to the heart of the process -- student learning.

Description:
This session will be a show-and-tell

demonstrate how to create a basic Informer report including calculated
columns
(using simple JavaScript snippets) that will make reporting a little
easier.
Examples include: how to join multi-valued fields so they export in one
row,
how to extract only one item from a multi-valued field such as the
Cruiser
email address or just the cell phone number, how to flag critical items
in a
report using colors/words, and more!

session
will present an overview of various forms of assessment including
assessment
used by academic programs for non-instructional and continuing

Reference
Assessments: Accountability, Course Placement, Degree Completion, or
Student
Learning
Location: Grandover
East
Description:
Using
nationally normed tests for
accountability makes sense in theory but can they satisfy the mission
for both
improving student learning and reporting accountability measures? Since
testing
often impacts student’s lives, is it fair to base academic
decisions on one
measure? Striving to achieve good test scores for accountability can
have
counterproductive effects on student learning. This session explores
when and
if norm-referenced tests are useful.

College Persistence: Issues
& Solutions Emerge from the Data
Location: Victoria

Description:
Persistence to graduation is a
complex, multi-faceted process with no easy fix … or is it? Although some risk factors
are beyond our
control as open-door institutions, numerous well-designed studies
reveal
low-cost factors with profound impact on persistence.
In addition to identifying variables with
positive and negative association with persistence, this presentation
will look
at national and statewide community college persistence trend data for
various
demographic categories. With
wide-ranging variation in persistence rates among NC community
colleges,
strategies associated with high persistence at top-ranking NC community
colleges will be shared.

National
Accountability Initiatives and Their
Impact on
NCCCS Performance
Accountability
Currently,
several
national initiatives are examining accountability in postsecondary
education, with particular
emphasis being given to appropriate performance
measures for community
colleges.Concurrent with these initiatives is a process
initiated by the NC
State Board of Community Colleges to re-examine the
Performance Measures and
Funding System that was enacted in 1999 and
modified in 2008.This session will
present information on the major national
initiatives
including the Voluntary
Framework of Accountability being developed
by the
American Association of
Community Colleges; the National Governor's
Association
Complete to
Compete initiative; the Student Success Task force
authorized
under the Higher Education Opportunity Act; and thework of the
Achieving the
Dream Cross State Data Team. Emphasis will be given to the
measures and
how they may impact the NCCCS Performance Measures and
Funding
system. In addition, a discussion of the
use of momentum points in
addition to
outcome measures in a
comprehensive accountability approach
will be presented.

Deb Leeper, Director, Assessment

You've looked at enrollment,
retention, and other types of data as well as the
results from numerous
surveys. Now what? You may have heard the
expression,
"the
data won't speak for themselves."
Having a context for planning how you're
going to use the data you have
from a variety of sources is key to establishing
successful continuous
improvement processes. This
session will
equip you with a
perspective for establishing and
maintaining that context.

When
you call the Little River Golf Resort, you will need to indicate to the
person taking your reservation whether you are renting your own
2-bedroom villa, or sharing a villa.
If you
and another CCPRO member have agreed to share a villa, indicate the
name of your villa-mate to the person who takes your reservation. Those
not indicating a designated villa-mate will be paired with someone of
the same gender by the Little River Golf Resort, unless you choose to
reserve your own 2-bedroom villa.
