What changes were made to your course based on the previous assessment cycle, the prior Closing the Loop reflections and other faculty discussions? Since the last cycle, the presentation and capstone reflection assignments have been added and leveled. The site list for places to volunteer has also been updated and two new instructors have taken on the program without sacrificing the integrity of the curriculum or student success. We will continue to augment the course with an end of the year celebration to honor the students who have given back to the community. 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? Serv 85 A-D provides a variety of activities that let students connect current volunteer work with future goals and with being active citizens. Serv 85 A-D does not merely send students out to volunteer, but encourages students to think critically about their volunteer activities and relate them to the “big picture” through many reflective experiences. The course, which is one of a kind at Chabot, helps students get a foothold in volunteering in the East Bay’s diverse multicultural community. We will continue to offer the course once per semester. We will continue to offer a wide variety of volunteer placements in Serv 85 A-D so that students can be paired with opportunities that fit their goals. We will update our site list to better facilitate matches, and we may update our reflections so that there a wider range of topics can be covered between fall and spring semesters, especially given that the course is now leveled and repeatable 4X. 3.
