Golden West College - Continue on WarningOn July 3, 2014 Beno sent a letter to Golden West College stating that “The Accrediting Commission for Community and Junior Colleges, Western Association of Schools and Colleges, at its meeting June 4-6, 2014, reviewed the Follow-Up Report submitted by Golden West College and the Report of the Evaluation Team that visited Tuesday, April 8-Wednesday, April 9, 2014. The Commission took action to continue the College on Warning and require a Follow-Up Report by March 15, 2015. The Report will be followed by a visit of Commission representatives. The Follow-Up Report should demonstrate that the College has addressed College Recommendations 2, 3, 5, and 6 and District Recommendation 2, resolved the deficiencies, and meets Eligibility Requirements and Accreditation Standards. These findings of deficiencies and team recommendations were made in spring 2013.” “The Commission found Golden West College remains deficient in meeting the following Eligibility Requirements: 10, and 19, and Accreditation Standards: I.A.1, I.A.4, I.B.1-7, II.A, II.A.1, II.A.2, II.A.2.f, II.A.2.h, II.A.2.i, II.A.6.a-c, 111.B.2.b, III.D.1.a, III.D.1.c, IV .B.1.j, IV .B.3.a, IV.B.3.g. College Recommendation 2: In order to fully meet the Standards and improve institutional planning, the College must implement a process to more specifically create and link objectives that lead to accomplishment of the institutional goals and improvement in KEPIS (I.A.1, I.A.4, I.B. -7, III.B.2.b) College Recommendation 3: In order to meet the Standards, it is recommended that the College complete the process of mapping (aligning) course-level SLOs with program-level SLOs and general education SLOs and expedite the process of assessing all SLOs. Doing so will allow the College to ensure that it is awarding credit based on student achievement of a course's stated learning outcomes as well as awarding degrees and certificates based on student achievement of stated learning outcomes. (II.A.2.f, II.A.2.h, II.A.2.i, ER 10, ER 19) College Recommendation 5: In order to meet the Standards, the College must develop and implement a policy and/or procedure for measuring the program length and intended outcomes of degrees and certificates offered by the College. (II.A, II.A.1, II.A.2, II.A.2.h, II.A.6.a-c) College Recommendation 6: In order to meet the Standards, the College must develop financial planning processes that include the following: a. Consideration of its long-range financial priorities when making short-range financial plans b. Development of financial plans that are integrated with and supports all institutional plans c. Development of an enrollment management plan in order to maintain the financial viability of the organization (as noted in 2000 and 2007) (Standard III.D.1.a, III.D.1.c) District Recommendation 2: 'To meet the Standards and as recommended by the 2001 team, the team recommends that the Board and district follow their policies regarding the delegation of authority to the chancellor for effective operation of the district and to the College presidents for the effective operation of the Colleges. Further, the team recommends that the district develop administrative procedures that effectively carry out delegation of authority to the chancellor and the College presidents. (Standards IV.B.1.j, IV.B.3.a, I.V.B.3.g)” “Must develop” financial planning is a direct requirement as opposed to the still vague “recommended” by a team. S.L.Os are again front and center in the Commission’s oversight of the colleges. A letter from the April 8-9 Visiting Team stated that “The team found that the College has addressed all five College recommendations and in conjunction with Coastline Community College and Orange Coast Community College also addressed the four District recommendations and one Commission recommendation.” All members of the team were administrators. Palo Verde College - ProbationOn July 3, 2014 Beno sent a letter to Palo Verde College stating that “The Accrediting Commission for Community and Junior Colleges, Western Association of Schools and Colleges, at its meeting on June 4-6, 2014, reviewed the Institutional Self Evaluation Report, the Report of the External Evaluation Team that visited Palo Verde College March 10-13, 2014, and the presentation by College representatives. The Commission took action to impose Probation and require the College to submit a Follow-Up Report by March 15, 2015. The Report will be followed by a visit by Commission representatives.” The ten member External Evaluation Team had ten members of which only 2 were faculty members. “Palo Verde College should submit the Follow-Up Report by March 15, 2015. The Follow-Up Report should demonstrate that the Palo Verde College has addressed all recommendations, resolved the deficiencies, and now meets the Eligibility Requirements, Accreditation Standards and Commission policies noted below.” “The Commission found Palo Verde College deficient in meeting the following Eligibility Requirements, Accreditation Standards, and Commission policies: Eligibility Requirements 8, 10, and 19 and Standards I.A.3-4; I.B.1-6; I.B; I.B.2-3; II.A.1.a,b,c; II.A.2.a,b,c,d,e,f; II.A.7.b-c; II.B.1; II.B.2.c; II.B.4; III.A.1.b; III.A.1.c; III.C.2; and III.D.1; and the ACCJC Policy on Distance Education and Correspondence Education. Recommendation #1: In order to meet the Standards and as noted in Team Recommendations #1 and# 2 and Commission Recommendation #4 (2005), the team recommends the College create a complete blueprint for planning that includes regular review of the mission statement and current institutional plans that collectively describe how the College will achieve its goals. The mission statement should inform overarching plans, such as the education master plan or strategic plan. Overarching plans should drive other long-term institutional plans such as the technology plan and enrollment management plan. These long-term plans should include institution set standards for student achievement and be used to inform annual planning as part of the program review process. Assessment of student learning outcomes and related dialogue should be integral to the planning process, such as by embedding SLO dialogue into program review. (Standards I.A.3-4; I.B.1-6; II.A.2.f; II.B.1; III.C.2; III.D.1; ER.10; ER.19) Recommendation #2: in order to meet the Standards, the team recommends that the College develop and implement a sustainable assessment plan that ensures the College completes a full cycle of student learning outcome (SLO) assessment that includes discussion of results and action planning at all levels [course SLOs, program SLOs, general education (GE) SLOs, and institutional SLOs] to move to the Sustainable Continuous Quality Improvement Level of the ACCJC Rubric for Evaluating Institutional Effectiveness. Tc complete a full assessment cycle, the College must accelerate its efforts to assess all student learning outcomes for every course, and must demonstrate the following:
(Standards I.B; I.B.2-3; II.A.1.a,c; II.A.2.a,b,e; ER.8; ER.10; ER.19) Recommendation #3: In order to meet the Standards and as noted in Team Recommendations #1 and #2 and Commission Recommendation #4 (2008), the team recommends that the College regularly evaluate and assess all of its processes. Information about the processes used in planning and institutional improvement should be widely disseminated to the campus and community. Sufficient research support and delegation of responsibility is needed to inform the research and planning process and ensure regular implementation of all elements of the process, and to inform decision making at all levels of the College. (Standards I.B.1-6; II.A.1.a, c; II.A.2.a, e, f; II.B.4) Recommendation #4: In order to meet the Standards, the team recommends that the College implement a data-informed process to systematically evaluate the methods of teaching of all courses and programs including all instructional modalities [distance education (DE), correspondence education (CE) and face-to-face] to ensure the student learning experience and outcomes are comparable regardless of the method of instruction or delivery. (Standards II.A.1.b-c; II.A.2.a, c, d, e, f) Recommendation #5: In order to meet the Standards, the team recommends that the College implement a data-informed process to systematically evaluate the instruction methods for all instructional service agreement (ISA) courses and programs to ensure the student learning experience and outcomes meet college standards. (Standards II.A.1.b-c; II.A.2.a, c, d, e, f) Recommendation #6: In order to meet the Standards and comply with the Commission's Policy on Distance Education and on Correspondence Education, the team recommends that the College establish a policy and process to authenticate the identity of students enrolled in distance education and correspondence education. The process should ensure that a student who registers and receives credit for a course is the same student who participates regularly in and completes work for the course. (Standards II.A.7.b-c; II.B.2.c; ACCJC Policy on Distance Education and Correspondence Education) Recommendation #7: In order to meet the Standards, the team recommends that the College develop, implement and evaluate an effective part-time faculty evaluation process. (Standard III.A.1.b) Recommendation #8: In order to meet the Standard, the team recommends that the College fully implement the agreed-upon process that faculty involvement in SLOs be included as part of the faculty evaluation process and that the College provide evidence that this self-disclosure is effective in producing student learning outcomes. (Standard III.A.1.c)” “The College should fully resolve the noted deficiencies by March 2015.” “During its institutional self evaluation, Palo Verde College identified improvement plans for advancing its continuous improvement efforts. The Commission suggests that those plans for improvement be taken into account as the College continues into the next accreditation cycle. In its Midterm report, the College should address steps undertaken in those improvement areas.” “As the Commission reviewed the External Evaluation Report and considered the additional documentation presented by the College, and the presentation by College representatives., the Commission made changes to the External Evaluation Report with the concurrence of the team chair. “ Directory: uploads uploads -> 587 Return function, r i(X) r i(0) r i(1) r i(2) r i(3) 1 0 2 4 6 Thermal Station, I 2 0 1 5 6 3 0 3 5 6 10 uploads -> Department of science and humanities department of mathematics part-a questions and answers uploads -> The Case Against the nypd’s Quota-Driven ‘Broken Windows’ Policing What Is It? uploads -> For want of a nail uploads -> Ownership Models There are two different types of ownership models uploads -> Police Militarization uploads -> City of rising star regular meting thursday, july 14, 2016 uploads -> Township of winfield uploads -> Stop Militarizing Law Enforcement Act of 2014 uploads -> The Black Panther Party’s Ten-Point Program What We Want Now!
