QEP：心态很重要
The goal of 银河网上赌场官网’s Quality Enhancement Plan (QEP), 心态问题, is to improve student success by cultivating an environment where students thrive
academically and feel connected, thereby improving first-year credit momentum and
program completion. Through the support of a first-year experience program we want
part-time students to complete 15 credits/year and full-time students to complete
30 credits/year.
Accelerated credit momentum—the number of credits earned toward degree completion—will be achieved by fostering a supportive campus culture (belonging) where first-year students believe they are capable of learning and overcoming obstacles (academic growth mindset). This will lead to increased help-seeking behaviors and engagement with college support resources, thus improving student success and credit momentum.
Three strategies, identified through research, will be implemented to achieve these goals:
- 策略1：第一年学习社区 will connect students to their Whitecaps community, foster academic growth mindset, and familiarize students with college-support resources.
- 策略2：信贷支持基础设施 将创建制度实践，以支持和庆祝信贷势头目标。
- 策略3：消息传递活动 will reinforce the benefits of credit momentum, encourage use of college resources, and support a college culture of academic growth mindset and belonging.
Building on 澳门银河网上赌场’s strong assessment foundation, this initiative will evaluate program progress with four Student Success Outcomes (SSOs) using a mixed-methods approach (direct/indirect, quantitative/qualitative, and formative/summative).
- SSO 1信用动量： First-year students will successfully complete at least 15 hours (part-time students) or 30 hours (full-time students) toward their degree plan.
- SSO 2连接与归属： First-year students will report feeling supported by and connected to the Galveston College community.
- 三、学术成长心态： First-year students will believe they can increase their intelligence and abilities, and will apply growth mindset strategies toward achieving their academic goals.
- 学院支持资源： First-year students will use college support resources to increase their academic success.
信贷势头的问题是通过正在进行的机构评估确定的。 Faculty, staff, and students engaged in presentations, discussions, and surveys which culminated in the selection of First-Year Experience as the best means for addressing credit momentum. With multiple college initiatives working to improve first-year experience offerings, the topic was further distilled to one facet of a first-year experience—learning communities—along with institutional support and messaging to improve credit momentum.
心态问题 aligns with the core values and strategic plan of 银河网上赌场官网, and ample resources have been dedicated to increasing student success through credit momentum. Mindset 做 matter! With a shift in mindset and the support of a college community, students will have more confidence in their abilities and will more efficiently achieve their goals.
