1 Maximizing Student and Faculty Success Through Professional Collaboration
Shakitha League Of Innovations 2017

2 Concerns With Success Rates
Mathematics faculty recognized falling success rates and began having conversations of how to positively impact student performance. Mathematics Department Success 68.4% 66.1% 64.3% Shakitha

3 Strategies We knew high risk courses (high enrollment, low success) gave us the best opportunity to address low success rates, so we targeted our Algebra sequence and Developmental Mathematics courses. We used the following strategies: Lead instructors Common final exams Shared materials Student and instructor performance data analysis Shakitha

4 Instructor Profiles Shakitha

5 Test Averages Shakitha

6 Faculty Concerns Too many courses to manage expectations.
Not enough input on exams and materials. Not enough time to plan with other faculty. Consistency of grading Too much work for lead instructors. Shakitha

7 Professional Learning Communities (PLC)
Emily

8 Professional Learning Communities Overview
Professional learning communities (PLC’s) seemed to be a strategy to address many faculty concerns. Faculty are scheduled to teach only one high risk course and the rest of their load comes from other courses. Faculty have a designated time each week to meet with their PLC to discuss data, most promising practices, and course materials. The department chair attends each PLC meeting to provide further support. Emily

9 Weekly PLC Meetings Common course materials Teaching strategies
Integrated support for learners Emily

10 Common Course Materials
Syllabus Calendars Homework (MyMathLabsPlus or ALEKS) Worksheets Practice Tests (with written and video solutions) Tests Final Exams Grading Rubric Emily

11 Teaching Strategies Peer observations
Collaborative learning activities Discussion on most promising practices Interventions Early & often Weekly Homework Check-In Conferences Vertical Alignment Moved instructors between PLCs Joined with Developmental Math Emily
