Follow the link to the spreadsheet provided in Appendix F1A, save the spreadsheet where you can continue to access it and add requested resources from each appendix to it as appropriate. Once completed, submit to your Dean/Area Manager with this finalized Program Review Narrative. b. Requests should be made for augmented/ additional resources (more than what you are already receiving). If you have questions about what constitutes an “additional/augmented” request, please talk with your administrator who can tell you what maintenance resources you are already receiving. c. Prioritize your requests using the criteria on the spreadsheet. Your Administrator will compile a master spreadsheet and prioritize for his or her entire area. d. Submit resource requests on time so administrators can include requests in their prioritization and discuss with their area at November division meetings. 1. What Progress Have We Made? Complete Appendices A (Budget History), B1, C (PLO's), and D (A few questions) prior to writing your narrative. You should also review your most recent success, equity, course sequence, and enrollment data at http://www.chabotcollege.edu/programreview/Data2015.asp. Limit your narrative to two pages. In year one, you established goals and action plans for program improvement. This section asks you to reflect on the progress you have made toward those goals. This analysis will be used to inform future budget decisions. In your narrative of two or less pages, address the following questions: What were your previous Program Review goals? Did you achieve those goals? Specifically describe your progress on the goals you set for student learning, program learning, and Strategic Plan achievement. What are you most proud of? What challenges did you face that may have prevented achieving your goals? Cite relevant data in your narrative (e.g., efficiency, persistence, success, FT/PT faculty ratios, CLO/PLO assessment results, external accreditation demands, etc.). What were your previous Program Review goals? During the previous program cycle, we set out to do the following: 1. Implement the Community College Pathway to Law School and other programs associated with Chabot’s Strategic Plan Initiative; 1 In the spring of 2014, Chabot officially became part of a new Initiative sponsored by the State Bar of California’s Council on Access and Fairness that created a partnership between 24 California community colleges and six law schools. The initiative, the Community College Pathway to Law School (CCPLS), creates a pathway to law school for community college students. Through the CCPLS initiative, we will provide our students with resources such as tutoring, mentoring, counseling, LSAT preparation, and early exposure to law-related courses. During the past year, we have been preparing to implement the CCPLS and officially launched the program in September 2015. Our biggest challenge has been adequate funding. However, during the past academic year, we received funding to support the CCPLS from the California Department of Education’s Career Pathways Trust Grant. Under the CPT 1, we established the Public Service/Law pathway, which is part of the First Year Experience (FYE) program. Under the CPT2 program, we received funding to extend our pathway to the middle and high schools in our service area. We are most proud of this program because of its potential to transform the lives of many young people in our service area. Spanning from middle school through grade 14, they will include classroom - and community-based activities designed to get students interested in and prepare for potential careers as lawyers, paralegals, law enforcement officers, or other roles in the justice system. As part of these programs students will learn about different laws, the operations of state and federal courts and their relationship to other branches of government, and the roles of various personnel in the legal system. Programs will include a “GAVEL” curriculum and Writing Academy in which 6th10th grade students in social studies will learn about the legal system, social problems, and criminal justice while honing their 21st century skills such as persuasive writing and critical thinking; a Summer Law Institute for rising 9th graders; a sequence of 3 high school CTE classes in criminal justice that collaborate with core academic classes; the District Attorney Justice Academy seminar series and internships for high school students; a 4-year academic enrichment and support program including internships; a Mock Trial program; and the Community College Pathway to Law School Initiative and Administration of Justice law program at Chabot. The CCPLS will increase access to law school by making the transitions from community college to a four-year institution to law school occur in a much more smooth manner. We have substantial numbers of students who have an interest in pursuing a legal career but, until now, there has been no clearly identified pathway from community college. The First Year Experience (FYE), the CPT, AS-T degree, and the CCPLS are closely aligned with Chabot’s Strategic Plan. 2 2. Improve success rates in Administration of Justice 50; ADMJ 50, Introduction to Administration of Justice continues to be the gateway course in the program. Students who perform well in this class tend to perform well in other courses in the curriculum. However, it continues to have the lowest success rate of all of the courses in the program. During the most recent program cycle (Fall 2014 – Summer 2015), the success rate was 59%, a four percent increase from our last program review (Fall 2011 – Summer 2014). During the most recent review period, (Fall 2014 – Summer 2015), the success rates for targeted populations (e.g., African American and Latino) were 46% and 61% respectively. This represent a 3% and 8% respective increase from the last program review period. Although success rates are improving, we are working to continue this progress. The challenge, as we have previously stated, reflects both the interdisciplinary nature of the course and the academic preparation of students. With support from the CPT grant and/or Equity funds, we will be developing a supplemental learning class to accelerate the learning for our students who need to work on college readiness issues. Also, through the Career Pathways Trust grant, we will be working with our K-12 partners to improve the academic preparation of incoming students. 3. Re-activate the Law & Justice Club; The Law & Justice Club has been reactivated recently. The interest in the Club is stronger than ever. The challenge of maintaining an active student club involves the question of faculty sponsorship. We are hopeful this year because we have increased faculty involvement from both full-time and part-time faculty. 4. Establishing a Learning Community with Part-time faculty. Administration of Justice relies heavily on part-time faculty to serve our students. While faculty (full-time and part-time) have deep content knowledge, we do not have a shared pedagogy, particularly a pedagogy that can accelerate the learning of under-prepared students. Our goal in establishing a learning community is to: Provide faculty with knowledge and strategies for building struggling African American, Latino, and Pacific Islander students' academic mindset toward academic work. Provide faculty with tools to help move these students toward more independent learning and critical thinking and analysis through culturally responsive teaching. 3 Address the unconscious bias that might be getting in the way we name and address the academic challenges faced by African American, Latino and Pacific Islander students. 2. What Changes Do We Suggest? Review the Strategic Plan goal and key strategies at http://www.chabotcollege.edu/prbc/StrategicPlan/SPforPR.pdf prior to completing your narrative. Please complete Appendices E (New and Ongoing Initiatives and Projects) and F1-8 (Resources Requested) to further detail your narrative. Limit your narrative here to one page and reference appendices where further detail can be found. What initiatives or projects are or could be underway to support student learning outcomes, equity, and/or the College Strategic Plan Goal? A. Supplemental Learning Course for ADMJ. B. Career Exploration Field Trips (Courts, Law Enforcement Agencies, Correctional Facilities). C. Institutionalized Ride-A-Long Program with local law enforcement agencies. Appendix A: Budget History and Impact Audience: Budget Committee, PRBC, and Administrators Purpose: This analysis describes your history of budget requests from the previous two years and the impacts of funds received and needs that were not met. This history of documented need can both support your narrative in Section A and provide additional information for Budget Committee recommendations. Instructions: Please provide the requested information, and fully explain the impact of the budget decisions.

How has your investment of the budget monies you did receive improved student learning? When you requested the funding, you provided a rationale. In this section, assess if the anticipated positive impacts you projected have, in fact, been realized. We only recently received the camera we requested last year and have not had a chance to put it into service documenting program and student activities. Nevertheless, we expect it to have a positive impact helping to market and promote our programs, particularly our new pathways. 4 2.

Program: Administration of Justice PLO #1: Evaluate and analyze criminal justice issues and topics using knowledge of criminal justice institutions, terminology, theory and ethical issues in crime and justice. PLO #2: Understand the interdisciplinary nature of criminal justice and the varying perspectives of the liberal arts and sciences as related to law enforcement, courts, and corrections. What questions or investigations arose as a result of these reflections or discussions? How do we improve students exposure and understanding of opportunities in law enforcement and legal careers? What program-level strengths have the assessment reflections revealed? The interdisciplinary nature of our program helps students improve critical thinking skills. What actions has your discipline determined might be taken to enhance the learning of students completing your program? We will increase our career exposure activities through guest speakers, field trips, and work-based learning opportunities (e.g., internships, job shadowing, etc.). 39 Appendix D: A Few Questions Please answer the following questions with "yes" or "no". For any questions answered "no", please provide an explanation. No explanation is required for "yes" answers. Write n/a if the question does not apply to your area. 1. Have all of your course outlines been updated within the past five years? No. We have one more course to update – ADMJ 74 – which will be updated this semester. 2. Have you deactivated all inactive courses? (courses that haven’t been taught in five years or won’t be taught in three years should be deactivated) Yes. 3. Have all of your courses been offered within the past five years? If no, why should those courses remain in our college catalog? Yes. 4. Do all of your courses have the required number of CLOs completed, with corresponding rubrics? If no, identify the CLO work you still need to complete, and your timeline for completing that work this semester Yes. 5. Have you assessed all of your courses and completed "closing the loop" forms for all of your courses within the past three years? If no, identify which courses still require this work, and your timeline for completing that work this semester. Yes. 6. Have you developed and assessed PLOs for all of your programs? If no, identify programs which still require this work, and your timeline to complete that work this semester. Yes. 7. If you have course sequences, is success in the first course a good predictor of success in the subsequent course(s)? Not Applicable: There is no required sequence of courses in Administration of Justice. However, in Fall 2013, we developed recommended prerequisites for certain courses. Also, data from the Office of Institutional Research suggest that Introduction to Administration of Justice (ADMJ 50) is a gateway course to success in the curriculum. 8. Does successful completion of College-level Math and/or English correlate positively with success in your courses? If not, explain why you think this may be. Students who enroll in and successfully complete an English course have higher success rates in all ADMJ courses, particularly ADMJ 50. 40 Appendix E: Proposal for New and Ongoing Initiatives and Projects (Complete for each initiative/project) Audience: Deans/Unit Administrators, PRBC, Foundation, Grants Committee, Equity, BSC, College Budget Committee Purpose: The project will require the support of additional and/or outside funding.

When did this conversation take place and who was involved? Proposal was developed by ADMJ full-time faculty and will be shared with the entire Division. 43 PROJECT GOALS, ACTIVITIES, BUDGET, OUTCOMES, AND EVALUATION GOAL What does your project hope to achieve overall? Research from Chabot’s Office of Institutional Research indicates that full-time students with a clear educational goal of transfer or an AA/AS-T stay on track and move quickly to complete their work. We believe that exposing our students to the breadth and depth of opportunities in law enforcement and legal careers will help them clarify their educational goals and develop the academic mindset and behaviors necessary for successful completion of their educational and career goals. DOCUMENTING NEED AND SOLUTION Please provide data to support the need for your project and the solution you propose. Informal surveys of our students by faculty suggest that, while students are generally committed to the ADMJ major, most of them are unclear about what work they want to do in criminal justice. In programs where the focus is linear (only training students for careers as police officers), this may not be a big problem. At Chabot, however, our ADMJ program is multi-faceted providing opportunities in every sector of the criminal justice system (e.g., police, courts, corrections, juvenile). Early exposure to the different sectors will help students clarify their objectives. That clarity, as the research of OIR suggests, will help improve student performance. This is particularly important for African American and Latino students who make up the majority of the students in the major. ACTIVITIES Please list all the activities (A.1, A. 2, A.3, etc.) that you propose to do to reach your goal. List activities by target date in chronological order. Identify the responsible person/group for each activity, and who will be involved. Ten Field trips during the 2016-17 academic year (5 in the fall semester and 5 in the spring semester). Two industry employment workshops (1 in the fall semester and 1 in the spring). Full-time ADMJ faculty will be responsible and ADMJ and other faculty/staff will participate on the trips. BUDGET Provide a budget that shows how the funds will be spent to support the activities. 6 Trips to Adult and/or Juvenile Correctional Facilities: 2 trips to Law Schools: 2 Trips to Courts: Charter bus transportation per trip = $815: Total Transportation Cost = $8,150 Food for workshops = $400 per workshop ($800): Snacks/water for trips = $100 per trip ($1000): Total Project Budget = $8,150 + $800 + $1,000 = $9,950 EXPECTED OUTCOMES and EVALUATION 44 How will you know whether or not you have achieved your goal? What measurable outcomes are you hoping to achieve for the student success indicator and target population you chose? How will you identify the students who are affected (are they part of a class, a program, or a service, or will you need to track them individually)? We will conduct pre-and-post surveys of participants to determine the impact of our early exposure program on career choices and educational goals. Success will be measured by increased success rates, degree completion, and transfer rates for participants, particularly African American and Latino students. 45 Appendix F1A: Full-Time Faculty Request(s) [Acct.
