The combined report on issues from all teams, from last year, can be accessed at: http://valenciacc.edu/strategicplan/big_2009.cfm where it is listed under the third section, Goal Team Reports on Issues and Initiatives. The team will develop a plan to provide any additional updates and finalize information on the selected issues by the end of March, for the purpose of contributing to a new combined report on the issues, from the 2010-11 teams, to be distributed in May, prior to the Big Meeting on June 2. IV. Review of Major Goal-Related Initiatives and Projects: (30 minutes) The team will review the list of objective 3.1-related initiatives and projects developed at its second meeting, and any updates or reports received from members on the initiatives. The team will plan to complete an updated report on each initiative by the end of March. The report on initiatives from last year’s team can be accessed at: http://valenciacc.edu/strategicplan/big_2009.cfm where it is listed under the third section, Goal Team Reports on Issues and Initiatives. V. Baseline Data – (10 minutes) The team will review the baseline data received to date related to this objective, noting any remaining data to be gathered. Baseline data are being posted to the Goal Teams web page at http://valenciacc.edu/strategicplan/strategicplanning2010-11.cfm To date, no baseline data have been posted for objective 3.1 VI. Review of Assignments and Next Meeting (10 minutes) The team will seek volunteers to complete reports on the Strategic Issues and Initiatives, and to submit those by the end of March. Also, the team will seek volunteers to obtain any additional baseline data it wishes to include, by the end of March. At the next meeting (the fourth meeting), to be held before finals week, the team will review all of the reports received on Issues and Initiatives, as well as the baseline data. Based on that review, the team will answer these questions that will be included in the team’s annual report: 1. To what extent has progress been made toward objective 3.1? What evidence do we have of that progress? 2. Do the current and planned activities in the Strategic Initiatives reports show promise of “moving the needle” on objective 3.1 by 2013? 3. Are there significant challenges or opportunities related to objective 3.1 that should be noted? 4. Have we learned anything that we are currently using or that we might use to improve the success of future efforts toward achieving objective 3.1? 5. Does the team have any recommendations regarding the objective or the measures being used to gauge progress (as developed by the 09-10 team)? After the team discusses and answers these questions and submits all reports on Issues and Initiatives, the information will be combined into a formal report from the team to the college. The team may opt to review that report electronically, and edit/approve it via email vote, rather than calling a fifth in-person meeting in May. All members of the team will attend Big Meeting on June 2 on West Campus, if at all possible.
