Approval of Minutes from January 22 meeting

ACCJC Self Evaluation Recommendations
The February 5th Action Letter from the ACCJC was distributed to the committee members.
The committee discussed the key points of the recommendations:
Integration of course and program SLO assessments with the program review process.
Consistently assess, analyze and evaluate SLOs for all academic programs and courses.
Use meaningful SLO data and dialog for continuous improvement.
Communicate SLOs to students by including them on syllabi and CORs.
Steps of action were discussed. Some of the key areas were:
Provide professional development on the areas of SLOs and program review.
Set guidelines for SLO assessment.
Provide clarification on when changes are made to SLOs and when to put them in to
eLumen.
Need to look closer at how the changes to SLOs may impact other programs.
The development of the Administrative Procedures for SLOs is ongoing. The goal is
to address all of the key points listed above as well as address the IEPI findings
and ACCJC recommendations.
SLO Administrative Procedures – Draft
Vicki distributed a copy of the draft Administrative Procedures for SLOs. Key points
of discussion were:
Devote a full day of inservice to focus on SLOs, documentation and dialogue.
Change the word “participation” to “documentation” in the draft.
Inputing data in to eLumen.
Research other schools to see if any are assessing all SLOs and if it is policy.
