YOU’VE SEEN THE DATA: WHAT’S THE NEXT STEP? HOW DO WE THINK ABOUT THE DATA?
An Equity Lens Access Who is enrolling on our campuses? Ensuring diversity Population projections Outreach Outcomes How are we serving our students? Are students achieving equal outcomes?
Measuring Student Outcomes Many indicators of student success Course success rates District Strategic Plan Student Equity Plan Institutional Goals (IEPI) Let’s take a look….
Measuring Student Outcomes CCCCO Data Mart
Measuring Student Outcomes achievement gap at 18% CCCCO Data Mart
Measuring Student Outcomes Student Success Scorecard
Measuring Student Outcomes 26% gap Student Success Scorecard
HOW DO WE IMPROVE THE TREND? HOW DO WE MAKE DATA ACTIONABLE?
Improving Course Success Gap Increasing Growth Rising Tide Bottom-up Win-Win Gregory Stoup, Contra Costa CCD
Improving Student Outcomes Consider an equity approach that would move as many as possible toward course success As opposed to focusing only on increasing course success among specific groups Win-Win Bottom-up
STUDENT OUTCOMES - RATES
Student Outcomes – Rates: Language Review Math Language It’s a fraction Bottom number (denominator) = total number possible Top number (numerator) = total number actual CC Language Still a fraction – but presented as a percent Bottom number = # of students who could/want outcome Top number = # off students who achieve outcome Percent of students who achieve outcome.
Student Outcomes – Rates: Problem? What’s the problem? It’s all about the denominator (could vs. want) What’s the student’s intent? Sometimes it’s also about the numerator Do we even have good data? Example…
Transfer Rates? 2007/08 Cohort Completers Overall (Scorecard) Fall 2007 (Data Mart) Annual Headcount (Data Mart) Transfer Velocity Cohort (Data Mart) First-Time Students (Data Mart) Numerator is 1,930 (from Transfer Velocity Cohort)
Student Outcomes - Rates Other areas where rates are discussed Denominator issues (Retention Rates) Persistence Rates Completion Rates Transfer Rates Numerator issues CTE l Employment l Wage
Where do we talk about outcomes? Internally (to name a few) Institutional Plans (E.g. EMP) Program Review Research Requests Externally (to name a few) ACCJC Grants Institutional Effectiveness Partnership Initiative (IEPI)
