CQI STEERING COMMITTEE
October 12, 2001
12:30 - 2:30 pm
Absent: Keith Kamerer, Nancy Cooper, Mona Walters, Kenneth Yowell
Guests: Jim Funkhouser, Brad Reed, Betty Blue
1. Agenda was approved without additional items.
2. Minutes were approved as presented.
3. Performance Team activities were presented as follows:
Academic Alert Process Team: Jim Funkhouser reported the team had determined from the data available that academic alerts as currently used were not effective. The team recommended that the current process be made optional to faculty, and that other intervention techniques be encouraged. Faculty should be reminded of their responsibilities to students, and timely interventions of different types should be used when needed.
Since this recommendation involves the changing of a policy, it was directed to the President for his decision.
Departmental Brochure Process Team: Betty Blue distributed the informational brochure the team had prepared outlining the process for preparing departmental brochures and flyers. She discussed the distribution of the brochures, the intended process for notifying staff of the new process/service, and the evaluation procedure to be used. Team recommendations were accepted.
Online Academic Design Team: Brad Reed presented the informational sheet given to all online class registrants, the special syllabus requirements of online classes, and the evaluation process for these classes. The team has recommended that a standard delivery platform be used by all newly introduced classes and that current class offerings be changed to that same platform when major revisions are needed. Since Blackboard is the platform currently used by the college, that should be standard unless there are significant reasons to select another format. Most all issues related to the online design recommendations will be monitored at the dean level as they work with faculty in course design and update. Team recommendations were accepted.
Other teams: Jane Salisbury indicated all other process teams are progressing in their work.
4. Two new teams were discussed and names suggested for membership. A
team is needed to determine an effective process for selecting students for special recognition, such as the All Ohio Academic Team. Names were suggested representing faculty, student development, career services, Darke County Center and the administration.
A second team to address event planning was discussed. Representatives from marketing, student development, Business and Industry, the Edison Foundation, the library and the administration were mentioned.
The names for both teams will be forwarded to the President Yowell for his consideration. He will invite those selected to participate on the teams.
5. The AQIP goal, “Helping Students Learn” was discussed. The committee
saw a need to have a diverse group guiding the development of that goal.
They suggested several names for team membership, representing administration, faculty, the Learning Center, and Student Development. Those names will be forwarded to the President for his deliberation.
6. In an effort to involve all aspects of the college in the selection of the two
remaining goals for the AQIP process, a survey of all employees will be prepared and distributed. Becky Telford will gather initial questions for consideration of the committee.
7. Jane Salisbury reminded members of the efforts being made to communicate
with the staff what things are being done in continuous quality improvement.
These include the CQI Happenings in the Update, the CQI Newsletter and the maintenance of the WEB page.
Next Meeting: November 2, 2001
