. 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 assess progress toward achievement of our Strategic Plan and to inform future budget decisions. In your narrative of two or less pages, address the following questions:

 What program improvement goals did you establish?

1. The Counseling Division’s goal is to continue to enhance the GNST offerings by the crosslisting of GNST courses with PSCN courses in order to explore students’ passions and areas of interests.

2. Drawing upon our knowledge of PSCN pedagogy and analysis of implementation and process , the Counseling Division will propose the creation of a First Year Experience (FYE)

Program for FY 14-15 to foster students’ goal clarification and attainment while deepening their connection to Chabot.

3. We will reach out to faculty in different disciplines to collaborate in the development of

GNST courses to further the multi-disciplinary spirit of GNST and continue to encourage faculty to present their GNST proposals to PSCN faculty.

4. We established the goal of clarifying the process of GNST course development.

5. We established the goal of providing more clear guidance and leadership for the GNST discipline.

6. We established the goal of investigating the purpose and accurate placement of GNST rubric in the College and what the actual TOP codes for GNST are.

7. We established the goal of creating CLOs for GNST courses as it had never been accomplished previously.

3

 Did you achieve the goals you established for the three years? Specifically describe your progress on goals you set for student learning, program learning, equity, and Strategic Plan achievement.

1. After extensive discussion with PSCN faculty, we have decided that the cons outweigh the pros for cross listing GNST courses with PSCN courses.

2. We helped create components of the FYE Program and have worked closely with the coordinator to support the program’s growth.

3. We were able to collaborate with various faculty members to enhance GNST courses.

Through the process of GNST approval which started last semester and outlined above,

GNST/PSCN faculty have been able to closely collaborate with faculty on campus and provide valuable feedback to new GNST courses, such as the revision of GNST 5A and the creation of GNST 5B.

4. Over the past 2 years, the PSCN faculty have developed guidelines for how to develop courses that may fit in the GNST rubric and have disseminated this information to the college at large. If GNST courses are proposed via curricunet by Chabot Faculty, the PSCN faculty have monitored, supported and reviewed the process.

5. Over the past 2 years since the Counseling Division has incorporated GNST into our offerings, our PSCN Coordinator has also taken leadership for the GNST discipline as well.

6. Due to the multidisciplinary spirit of GNST courses offered at Chabot College, the PSCN faculty is exploring the option of placing GNST courses under specific divisions or creating a new interdisciplinary rubric that includes at least 3 disciplines including GNST/PSCN discipline.

7. We have created CLOs for all active GNST courses and are in the process of evaluating all courses offered during the 2015-16 academic year.

What best practices have you developed? Those could include pedagogical methods, strategies to address Basic Skills needs of our students, methods of working within your discipline, and more.

We are most proud of our collaboration with faculty across campus for the delivery of innovative and multidisciplinary curriculum.

 For the first time ever, the GNST discipline has begun assessment of its courses in Fall 15 and these Closing the Loops are included in this report. GNST will complete its full

Assessment cycle in Spring 16.

 Over the past 2 years, the PSCN faculty have developed guidelines for how to develop courses that may fit in the GNST rubric and have disseminated this information to the college at large. If GNST courses are proposed via curricunet by Chabot Faculty, the PSCN faculty have monitored, supported and reviewed the process.

 Are these best practices replicable in other disciplines or areas? N/A

 What were your greatest challenges?

1) The initial challenge in year 1 was the significant number of PSCN faculty retirements during the spring 2014 semester. This loss made it extremely challenging for remaining

PSCN faculty to be more involved in the creation and revision of GNST courses due to increase workload.

2) An on-going challenge is maintaining effective and efficient communication channels and processes across multiple disciplines.

Were there institutional barriers to success? N/A

Cite relevant data in your narrative (e.g., efficiency, persistence, success, FT/PT faculty ratios,

CLO/PLO assessment results, external accreditation demands, etc.) . N/A

B. What’s Next?

This section may serve as the foundation for your next Program Review cycle, and will inform the development of future strategic initiatives for the college. In your narrative of one page or less, address the following questions. Please complete Appendices E (New and Ongoing Initiatives and Projects) and

F1-8 (Resources Requested) to support your narrative.

What goals do you have for future program improvement?

1) Courses go to specific divisions

2) Create a new interdisciplinary rubric that includes at least 3 disciplines and one counselor

3) Separate GNST FTEFs from PSCN FTEFs in the counseling division

What ideas do you have to achieve those goals?

1) Work with the Curriculum Committee to get feedback on the GNST rubric and the placement of courses in specific disciplines versus the creation of an interdisciplinary rubric.

2) Work with relevant Deans and CEMC to separate GNST FTEFs from PSCN FTEFs and consider asking the disciplines of origin to provide the FTEFs.

What must change about the institution to enable you to make greater progress in improving student learning and overall student success?

There needs to be a deeper understanding across faculty and administration on curriculum development, curriculum placement in disciplines and an understanding of how minimum

5

qualifications for teaching play a part in what the concerns are with the GNST rubric as it stands now. For example, GNST 31 – Women’s Spirituality, which in most academic settings would be classified in the Humanities section and at Chabot is being taught by English faculty.

FYI: Specific codes for courses that provide general studies:

Use one of the following six digit codes for courses in orientation, leadership, personal dynamics, study skills, and other subjects that contribute to the capacity of students to succeed in college.

4930.09 – Supervised Tutoring

4930.10 – Career Guidance and Orientation

3rd and 4th CLO’s. This finding makes us think that it remains important for teachers of

GNST 5 to keep a space and opportunity available throughout the semester for individual students to share their emerging thoughts about “life path” because students arrive at that discussion space at different rates and times.

1.

What changes were made to your course based on the previous assessment cycle, the prior

Closing the Loop reflections and other faculty discussions?

As this is a pilot, and as this is only our 3rd semester of offering the course, we had not before this time engaged in an assessment cycle for GNST 5.

2.

Based on the current assessment and reflections, what course-level and programmatic strengths have the assessment reflections revealed? What actions has your discipline determined might be taken as a result of your reflections, discussions, and insights?

We are seeing 3 strengths based on the assessment:

1.

GNST 5 is working well as a way for students to begin to develop meta-cognitive skills for engaging in investigation of one’s passions and interests.

2.

GNST 5 is meeting its goal of creating a space and culture that invites students to create educational communities.

3.

GNST 5 is far exceeding our goal of creating an ongoing arena for students to develop and implement ambitious community and college initiatives/projects/events.

Based on the surveys and reflections, we see that it is important for teachers and peer advisors who are working in GNST 5 to keep open lines of communication open with the more reticent members of the class. It may take them a while longer to begin to be able to express and share ideas about their goals and intended path.

3.

What changes were made to your course based on the previous assessment cycle, the prior

Closing the Loop reflections and other faculty discussions?

We have made several changes to this course. First, we are in the process of having the course leveled so students can really strengthen their leadership skills. Second, the class has developed a powerful structure which involves students participating in committees to achieve the goals of the class and program. Finally, students have developed leadership values such as empathy and altruism, to be evaluated upon related to our course level outcomes.

5.

Based on the current assessment and reflections, what course-level and programmatic strengths have the assessment reflections revealed? What actions has your discipline determined might be taken as a result of your reflections, discussions, and insights?

Our assessment has shown us that CIN! Students benefited from having a focused leadership class. Since the Fall, the class has tripled in size showing the need for social justice curriculum on our campus. Students want to develop the skills necessary to make change in their communities and the world. As a learning community we are seeking ways to not only strengthen this class but also expand as the need for social justice education seems to be growing on our campus!

The leadership class is effective in teaching students where they can make their voices heard and affect decision-making on campus. The students are aware of the role of

Student Trustee, the role of Students on both College and District Shared Governance committees (including College Council, which directly advises the College President), and that they are also welcome to make public comments at the beginning of any Shared

What changes were made to your course based on the previous assessment cycle, the prior

Closing the Loop reflections and other faculty discussions?

No changes - not assessed previously

8.

Based on the current assessment and reflections, what course-level and programmatic strengths have the assessment reflections revealed? What actions has your discipline determined might be taken as a result of your reflections, discussions, and insights?

There is no “Discipline” involved here. Rather, the class is taught by the Faculty member advising the Student Senate on Campus, whether that faculty member comes from a political science, English, or other academic background.

I have discussed the class with the previous instructor, former Faculty Advisor Sara Parker, and we are satisfied with the way the class helps bring students together and provides them a safe space to learn about leadership, ask questions, share vulnerabilities, discuss their goals and projects as student leaders, and practice leadership by leading a section of class each semester.

One possible action to take, however, would be to “level” the class sot that it can be repeated (GNST51A, B, C…)
