Ӱɴý has 47% of courses taught by full-time instructors. Ӱɴý received 3 faculty hires from Box 2A, and possibly more positions if there are retirements FSCC: (Faculty Senates Coordinating Council) Last meeting cancelled havent met officially since last Senate meeting SGC (Shared Governance Council) No meeting since last Senate meeting Consultation (Senate Presidents meeting with Chancellor) Last two sessions cancelled. Curriculum Committee: Costs for Curricunet (curriculum softwaresounds like a good bookkeeping program for Curriculum Committee & Course Outlines) if Ӱɴý & CCC purchase contract together: $25,000 for implementation and $8,000 annual maintenance. The decision whether to purchase or not is a management decision. Funding source for purchase/maintenance unclear. Positive feedback for Curricunet from both Curriculum Committee Chair & Sr. Dean of Instruction. Curricunet would help correct the problem of different versions of COOR (Course Outline of Record) forms and save administrative effort on the Curriculum Committee GE (General Education) Committee Anyone is welcome at GE Committee meetings Dr. Linda Elder is coming for a two day workshop during flex on the topic of Reading, Writing & Curriculum Connection. The focus of the GE Committee assessment is moving to the reading & writing criteria. February: Richard Paul, who is also from the Critical Thinking Institute will be featured at a conference in Berkeley. The GE Committee would like to send as many faculty as possible. Faculty may attend only one day of the conference also. January 12 is the deadline. Ken Alexander will be the new GE Committee Chair beginning January 2008. District Grade Change Committee Letter coming soon addressed to faculty requesting voluntary checking of grades (due to grade change scandal within district). Academic Senate President will also send a letter to Ӱɴý faculty. Start date will be January 29, after the last day for students to add semester length classes to avoid overloading Datatel Intent of requesting faculty to check rosters/grades was to get a complete look at grades to move forward from the grade change scandal within the district. Now, with voluntary faculty participation and no flex credit given, there might be less faculty participation. To prevent future unauthorized grade changing, an automatic email sent to instructors before grade will be changed. Grade change must be according to Title 5 and Governing Board Policy. New policies are also in place for accessing Datatel. Concern: contacting adjunct faculty. New grade change form will have a place for email address to contact adjunct instructors4, 5Approval of previous minutes and agendaMinutes & agenda approved (12-0-0) with correction: Change: (Senate Elections) Revise bylaws to include procedures and provisions for election tie Agenda: DVC votes whether or not to change to a compressed calendar tomorrow (12/11). Academic Senate President will request time for convocation on Opening Day. At this time, the Opening Day schedule hasnt come out from Peter Garcia. Remember the first draft of fall scheduling hasnt come out yet. Concern: decision has already been made to move to the compressed calendar 6CSU East Bay Proposal How would the CSU East Bay proposal impact Ӱɴý enrollments? Ӱɴý advantages: lower cost, larger course selection, and more college life May also be possibility of cross registration between Ӱɴý & CSU EB CSU East Bay has low numbers of freshman students and is looking to expand enrollments. Also CSU EB Concord Campus not meeting income goals. Original land donation for Concord Campus had the intent to start a 4 year campus at that location. Concern: students attending CSU EB often are having to take course at the Hayward campus to complete degree (rather than completing degree at Concord Campus) Contra Costa Times has already published an article supporting CSU East Bays proposal CSU East Bay may impact DVC more than Ӱɴý Might create synergy between Ӱɴý and CSU EB campus benefiting both7Academic Senate position on Proposition 92The Academic Senate of Ӱɴý endorses Proposition 92 (12-0-1)8Tutoring Committee Report: Presentation from Catherine Cook & Ruth Goodin Catherine Cook can be reached at extension 3457The Tutoring Draft Proposal includes getting feedback from constituent groups. Previous history of tutoring at Ӱɴý: allocation model with approximately $80,000 for tutoring among different departments who applied for funding. Feedback from both students and faculty indicated this model didnt feel equitable. DE (Developmental Education) Committee looked at tutoring and was one of the areas of the Title III Grant including next steps for tutoring. Goal for tutoring is to have students become independent learners. Tutoring Committee report included what was working and what wasnt working with tutoring. HSI Grant has money to turn LRC 3 into a tutoring reading writing center. The HSI Grant also focuses on equity and access. Catherine Cook was hired to do research into effective higher education tutoring programs and practices. Students requested tutoring for subject areas which had no tutor available possibly due to: department didnt have time/person to complete allocation request, training, and/or hiring of tutor. Changes to tutoring at Ӱɴý during fall 2008: Revamped tutor training. Previously, tutor training was 2 days. Now tutors meeting monthly to continue training. 52 tutors trained for fall. Pilot project for athletes TLP (Teaching & Learning Project) slos for Learning & Library Services: 1) access & effectively use Learning & Library Services (2) apply knowledge learned to academic coursework (3) demonstrate academic competencies to lifelong learning. Tutoring now at Ӱɴý: using a hybrid model (currently happening in English and Math) with in lab tutoring and centralized tutoring support. The centralized tutoring support will include triage: student comes to tutoring center and may be referred to particular resources (i.e. lab tutoring, other specialized tutoring on campus). The tutoring center will include multi-discipline tutoring. Tutoring program elements: Socratic and other effective tutoring practices, professional development and ongoing relationship with faculty, tutor recruitment and centralized tutor hiring. Tutor Leadership Group meeting on an ongoing basis. Tutor Leadership Group functions as mentors for other tutors, students and is a club on campus. Supplemental instruction and office hours are currently underutilized by students. Students will come to tutoring center to meet with instructor in a less formal setting. Having students meet with faculty in a less formal setting could also encourage small group discussion among students. Online tutoring will also be available Drop-in tutoring also being considered Peer mentoring including help in navigating student services, etc., will also be available Tutoring center will be FTEs generating: students would sign up for a non-credit course for tutoring similar to Reading Writing Center non-credit course already in place. Will take a lot of training for both students and staff to learn new system. Concern: Centralized tutoring center referring students elsewhere on campus might be confusing. Tutoring budget of $80,000 would likely need to be increased. New tutoring model would not include application basis for allocation. Concern: how will new model solve the recruitment and money shortfall for tutoring that exists now? Currently students enroll in tutor training course (2 day training) and additional curriculum for other subject areas is in the plans. Recruitment has already increased. Concern: students may become dependent on tutors rather than independent Goal: to recruit tutors having ethnic diversity Tutoring is also going to look at some department/program slos for possible tutoring tie-in Professional Development would be needed: how tutoring works within the classroom. Other professional development activities planned. Reading Writing Center will be moving to the old Math Lab until Spring 09 (when LRC 3 should be ready) Suggestion: to improve faculty participation, give load for faculty scheduled time in new Tutoring Center Concern: district/college might not be willing to give load for time spent in Tutoring Center. Faculty could certainly choose to hold their scheduled office hours in the Tutoring Center instead of their office. Tutoring Center would also envision student services as well as instruction participation Future tutoring updates will be presented at a college-wide assembly9Shared Governance Catalog StatementTabled until next time 10Evaluation Form feedbackSome feedback from Math Department already received Feedback from faculty for changes to evaluation forms would be requested: Criteria on student evaluation of faculty forms Summary form: seems strange to have some criteria worded and/or rated differently from evaluation forms A one-sided form for students to complete might be less confusing Concern: Counseling forms dont include definitions of successful sessions with students Concern: no guidelines/criteria for ratings: strongly agree, agree, disagree, strongly disagree and no criteria for averaging such as agree/strongly agree Suggestion: eliminate bubbles for student convenience No evaluation of areas/duties for which faculty receive release time Guidelines for improvement plan would be helpful also11Adjournment !"#$%&<=>FGhy& ' ( E Z \ ] ` a } ~ ʺʲti^i^iVKh _hDOJQJh~WOJQJh _h _OJQJh _hc}$OJQJhih _5CJOJQJaJhihc}$5CJOJQJaJh^'h^'OJQJhc}$hc}$OJQJhHOJQJhLy?OJQJhDOJQJh^'OJQJhc}$OJQJhE5OJQJh5OJQJhH5OJQJhHd5OJQJhc}$5OJQJ!=>G' ( 6 E [ \ Wkd$$IflF0*   t0*6    44 laytAq $Ifgdc}$gdc}$ $@&a$gd{j 0\ a o ~  .
