This visit will not be an accountability visit, but more of a \u201ccheck in.\u201d It was suggested that we share the draft ACCJC report that will be submitted to the Commission in March. A draft copy of the report will be sent to the PRT ahead of time. The agenda for the morning will be as follows:<\/p>\n<p>8:00 a.m. \u2013 Introductions and opening remarks, Deb Daniels and Kim Messina<\/p>\n<p>9:00 a.m. \u2013 Scheduled presentations and discussions of work-in-progress<\/p>\n<p>10:30 a.m. \u2013 Break<\/p>\n<p>10:45 a.m. \u2013 Questions, clarifications and next steps<\/p>\n<p>11:00 a.m. &#8211; Closing remarks by Deb Daniels and Kim Messina<\/p>\n<p>(Followed by PRT visiting team meeting with Deb Daniels)<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>Update on syllabus template\/SLO progress<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>One of the accreditation recommendations is to publish all course SLOs on syllabi for students. A template has been created that will allow for all CSLOs to be merged into a document from an eLumen report. The process is still being developed but is close to being tested.<\/p>\n<p>Next steps:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Work with a group of departments as a trial group<\/li>\n<li>Finalize the template<\/li>\n<li>Run a trial merge<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong><u>Informational item on alignment of budget year with APR process<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The budget calendar is still in draft form. The draft will be reviewed by the Budget Committee as well as the Governance Council. It was stated that the draft should be reviewed by the SPC while it is in draft form to ensure that SPC APR processes align with the budget calendar. It was suggested that the administrative program reviews be completed by February. The budget calendar will be reviewed at the next SPC meeting.<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>AP 4021 Program Discontinuation &#8211; update<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><u>\u00a0<\/u><\/strong>The administrative procedure for program discontinuation is currently under review. A small task force (Mark Williams, Vicki Jacobi and Kamala Carlson) has been assembled to formulate the AP. Areas of discussion:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Ownership<\/li>\n<li>What triggers the process?<\/li>\n<li>Who triggers the process?<\/li>\n<li>Should triggers be written in to the AP<\/li>\n<li>Process flow\n<ul>\n<li>Governance Council \u2013 starting point of program discontinuance discussion<\/li>\n<li>Monitoring data \u2013 SAO and SLO program review data in August<\/li>\n<li>Strategic Planning Committee \u2013 review data on programs and make a referral\/recommendation to Governance Council<\/li>\n<li>Trigger conversations in Governance Council, Budget Committee, Curriculum and Division Chairs<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>The original program discontinuation AP was written by a task force from Academic Senate.<\/li>\n<li>The old AP has been used at least 3 times. It worked for the local English program. It did not work for the Recreation program and Journalism did not wish to continue with discontinuance.<\/li>\n<li>This AP has the potential to also revive or sustain a program.<\/li>\n<li>Geoffrey Dyer would like to be involved in the next meeting when the discussions continue. Geoffrey also suggested that the AP be shared with the Curriculum Committee and Academic Senate.<\/li>\n<li>It was suggested the title of the AP be changed to the Program Viability procedure.<\/li>\n<li>Eric stated that there are white papers on this subject. He will find and share out with the committee.<\/li>\n<li>It was stated that the process traditionally originated with the Division Chair. The task force suggests that this may not be the best practice, they believe the process should start in Governance Council.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong><u>SPC Charter and membership review<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The SPC charter will be updated with the following changes:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Add a student representative from Associated Students<\/li>\n<li>Remove Coordinator of Counseling\/Matriculation<\/li>\n<li>Remove Board Member<\/li>\n<li>Add VP of Instruction<\/li>\n<li>Add VP of Student Services<\/li>\n<li>Add Dean of Student Success<\/li>\n<li>Add representatives from Academic Senate (2)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Regarding bulleted item #3 &#8211; It was asked if SPC will be the group to evaluate resource allocations from program review goal requests for effectiveness. It was stated that the Budget Committee also has a role in this process. A recommendation was made to add this piece in to the Annual Program Review process as part of the actual process. Program leads, programs, and\/or departments should be evaluating to see if resources have been effective. The current program review forms are designed to capture this information.\u00a0 Some suggestions were made to address this issue:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Assessment Caf\u00e9 \u2013 set aside a day where programs can showcase their results at the end of spring<\/li>\n<li>Use a science board to showcase data and program review results<\/li>\n<li>Facilitate a sense of pride among programs \u2013 data ownership<\/li>\n<li>Demonstrate the end of the process and what programs are looking forward to<\/li>\n<li>Faculty Reports and Brown Bag Lunches used to be the venue for this idea<\/li>\n<li>Primavera has had very positive experiences with this exercise<\/li>\n<li>Time during spring inservice could be used \u2013 Planning Day professional development<\/li>\n<li>The exercise needs to be framed around meeting the ACCJC recommendation of evaluating resource allocations for effectiveness.<\/li>\n<li>The administrative program reviews can incorporate the evaluation aspect and the effectiveness of resources<\/li>\n<li>A detailed plan will need to be in place and implemented by March.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>A recommendation will be made to the Governance Council to introduce the idea of an Assessment Caf\u00e9\/Science Board presentation.<\/p>\n<p>Regarding bulleted item #3 \u2013 title of Program Leads will be not be capitalized. There are no formal designations for program leads among faculty.<\/p>\n<p>The updated Charter will be reviewed at the November 4<sup>th<\/sup> meeting.<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>Current APR submissions \u2013 feedback, SLOs<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>To date there have been four annual program reviews and one goal form submitted. The committee reviewed the submissions and had a brief discussion on the contents. It was decided that there is a lack of SLO data used in writing the program reviews.<\/p>\n<p>A deadline to complete assessments will be established in order to have program review SLO data reports completed over the summer. The proposed deadline is July 1. This item of discussion will be continued in future meetings. The program reviews need to be reviewed for content and what feedback will be given back to the program leads. Brandy will generate SLO reports for these specific programs and have them available for the next meeting.<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>SAP Reports due<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This will be an agenda item at the Governance Council on October 14<sup>th<\/sup>. An updated SAP Progress Report list will be generated for that meeting.<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>Accreditation \u2013 report update and timeline (Preliminary draft should be ready for \u201cfyi\u201d review by Deb Daniels around October 19<sup>th<\/sup>). <\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Vicki and Prima have been working with Bob Pacheco to address the recommendations they have been given authorship over. The draft of the report will be going to the Board for review in November.<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>Integrated Planning Model \u2013 web version<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><u>\u00a0<\/u><\/strong>JP Marketing will be contacted to get an update on the progress of the web version of the IPM.
