What do students learn before classes start? In-service Fall 2019

The Cross-Content Collaborations team presented “Get In the Know: What Students Learn Before Classes Start” during Fall 2019 Inservice. The session focused on helping faculty and staff learn what other departments teach students as they start their Lane experience.

One outcome of the collaboration was the creation of several quick guides for faculty and staff that may help clarify the different student populations we’re talking about and also who on campus can provide support and resources.

These guides, along with the presentation’s slides, are linked below. 

The group will continue to work on updates to the guides as well as creating further forums for faculty and staff to discuss and ask questions about how different areas of campus interact with students (and each other!) to create a college experience.

Information Sessions: How to get involved

Welcome back to Winter Term! We’re moving ahead with Guided Pathways work this year, but there’s a lot of work to be done. The key to success in building guided pathways is involving multiple stakeholders, with multiple viewpoints and diverse experiences, in both defining the work and completing it. To this end, we’re holding information sessions about the teams we believe we’ll need to get started in this important work, and everyone is invited to attend, learn more, and discuss.

At the sessions, we’ll briefly discuss the teams that will form this term, their anticipated scope and potential projects, and the membership roles for each. If you’re curious about how to get into the work of guided pathways, please drop by one of these open sessions to ask questions or find out more.

At each session, we’ll also hand out this document [PDF – link], which provides an outline of anticipated Winter ’19 teams and positions. (It is also attached below as a PDF for ease of download). Stay tuned for a recruitment survey, coming out in Week 2, when we’ll start looking for interested applicants for all of the teams.

The dates for the sessions are below. As always, let us know if you have questions!

Information Sessions Incoming

Guided Pathways, included in Lane’s Strategy Map and Strategic Priorities, provides a framework for redesigning a community college to improve students’ experiences, from entry through graduation. It is a model of integrated, college-wide approaches to student success based on intentionally designed, coherent, and structured educational and institutional practices. The framework is based in a student-centric viewpoint, and encourages clear pathways for students, focused advising and academic planning, and extensive outreach and communications throughout students’ course of study, resulting in increased equity in access, affordability, and student success.

  • Are you curious about how you can be involved?
  • Are you interested in understanding how guided pathways work will happen?
  • Would you like to learn how and where your expertise and skills can most effectively contribute to this student success work?

 

Join the Guided Pathways Co-Chairs at any of the following information sessions. All sessions will start with the same information describing the current plan for moving forward and include time for discussion or questions. All sessions are open to all Lane employees. These sessions will not be live streamed or recorded. If you’re not able to attend and would like to discuss these topics, please contact Jenn and/or Jennifer.
