Outcomes
Develop priority
Committee Goals for
2015-16
ATI
Survey Process
BSU: Taskstream Tara posted
minutes; discussed putting
meeting minutes into ONE
DRIVE versus Taskstream. ONE
DRIVE instead of J Drive.
Difficulties with Task stream:
NTC finding students, students
misplaced; difficulty finding
committee meeting minutes for
2014-2015
Issues with the Junior Year how
the content is spread over the
year (BSU)-adult gerian course;
how the clinicals spread out;
palliative care
Looking at course eval process,
keeping up to date and changes
to curriculum review process
NTC: institutional survey
process need to look at for joint
committee; decrease amount of
surveys they are taking; need to
develop a solid employee survey
process and 6-12 month
graduate survey processes-Ruth
is working on survey..moving to
joint committee (employee and
student graduate survey).
Looking at going away with ATI;
discussed HESI; more
economical; skills
Curriculum change
implementation for PN and AD
program.
Ongoing Accreditation work
Review the SEP and updateStandard 6 ACEN report
Determine alignment
of Mission statements
We are now under the College
of Arts of Sciences. “We shape
passion for knowledge,
meaning, and creativity.”
Confirmed and approved the
alignment of the CAS mission
with the NTC mission and BSU
mission
Student outcomes are BSN
essentials-nationally recognized
outcomes
Share status of
Outcome work and
Curriculum alignment
(Nancy)
BSU is pretty close to analysis
documents to be completed.
NTC programs working on mid
levels-in progress; barrier is that
there are changes in course
objectives and learning
activities. Couple of course
maps done. PN Kay did course
map will send to Nancy. Finding
someone in place of Christy
(Kay?) to work on course
mapping with Nancy.
Concerns:
NTC AD NCLEX pass
rates (thru 2nd qtr)
ATI product usage &
expense
Taskstream issues
Is ATI most econominal or best
product?
NTC AD may have to go through
a compliance process report due
to pass rates.
ATI possibly taking away from
rigor?
