CENTER FOR COMMUNITY COLLEGE STUDENT ENGAGEMENT: COLLECTING DATA FROM MULTIPLE PERSPECTIVES Four surveys that complement one another:  Community College Survey of Student Engagement (CCSSE)  Community College Faculty Survey of Student Engagement (CCFSSE)  Survey of Entering Student Engagement (SENSE)  Community College Institutional Survey (CCIS) 3

IT’S NOT JUST ABOUT HAVING THE MOST INNOVATIONS… The effectiveness of educational practice depends on…  Specific design of the practice  Quality of implementation 4

DESIGN PRINCIPLES FOR EFFECTIVE PRACTICE  A strong start  Clear, coherent pathways  Integrated support  High expectations and high support  Contextualization 5

DESIGN PRINCIPLES FOR EFFECTIVE PRACTICE  Intensive student engagement  Design for scale  Professional development 6

PROMISING PRACTICES FOR COMMUNITY COLLEGE STUDENT SUCCESS  Planning for Success: Assessment and Placement, Orientation, Academic Goal Setting and Planning, and Registration before Classes Begin  Initiating Success: Accelerated or Fast-Track Developmental Education, First-Year Experience, Student Success Course, and Learning Community  Sustaining Success: Class Attendance, Alert and Intervention, Experiential Learning beyond the Classroom, Tutoring, and Supplemental Instruction 7

QUESTIONS: What practices are in place at your college? What is mandatory? For whom? What have you brought to scale?  Registration before classes begin?  Academic goal-setting and planning?  Orientation?  Student success course?  First-year experience? 8
