Questions, Issues, Concerns about Plan Reviews, Plans, Review Process, Forms, etc.?
Rebecca asked if there were any questions, concerns, etc. now that we have begun to review assessment
plans. No one had any particular issues or concerns so the agenda moved on.
Other Issues on our 06-07 Overall Agenda
Rebecca indicated that she had the items below on the agenda for the remainder of the year and asked folks if
there were other issues that we had wanted to address this year? The group tried to assign a timeline for
when these issues would be addressed.
Process and Feedback about Review Process
--Do winter term and maybe early April to determine any concerns, issues, learning from this round of
reviews as well as any changes that we need to make
Feedback from Retreat in November
--Michele asked for some help in getting these results out to both the council and the larger SA
organization. Rebecca will meet with Michele over spring break to finalize the info for distribution.
CIRP Replacement Survey
--Eric reported on the progress of the CIRP replacement survey. Because it has grown, there was
some discussion about having two versions and half the students would get one version and the other
half the other version. Eric and the committee will think about this.
Web-Based site for plans
--the committee looking at this will have a report and a demo look for the council during Spring term
Other projects/needs, etc for the rest of the year?
None mentioned
Summer Retreat
The Council had decided last year that they wanted a summer retreat soon after school was out. The
tentative dates that were set were: June 27-28
A committee for planning the retreat will need to be named soon so that a location, etc. can be
reserved.
Other
Rebecca shared information about the NASPA Learning Reconsidered Institute and the International
Assessment and Retention Conference in case anyone was interested in attending either of these. Other
assessment conference announcements will also be forwarded by email to council members.
Pat asked if anyone was going to the NASPA conference as there is going to be an entire day workshop on
writing learning outcomes by Keeling, et at. This would be a good workshop for anyone who is going to
NASPA to attend.
