This very robust initiative is our University's Quality Enhancement Plan (QEP). In an effort to ultimately impact academic success, it proposes to address issues and challenges related to the “whole student.” The plan proposes activities that directly engage students as soon as they express an interest in the university. It also proposes activities that support and empower students to matriculate beyond the first year and ultimately progress to graduation. The primary thrust of this plan includes targeted interventions during the initial months of enrollment designed to help students have a strong acclimation to the University from the onset. TSU has identified a topic through its ongoing comprehensive planning and evaluation processes, that include 14 key areas across campus ranging from Admissions, Financial Aid, Information Technology and Campus Engagement.

DELIVERY FORMAT: The program has a hybrid format.

PROGRAM SCALE: Medium-scale (reaches between 10 and 25 percent of its target population)

Austin Community College’s new, all-inclusive scholarship program supports students focused on starting a career immediately after ACC. Career Scholars receive financial and academic support while working toward a certificate or associate degree in an approved area of study. The scholarship covers the cost of tuition and fees — for a total of $5,000 disbursed over a period of up to 3 years — and ensures recipients have the guidance and support they need to reach their goals. Career Scholars builds holistic support services around the students, with rich career service resources and academic support in an effort to 1) alleviate financial barriers that often prevent underserved student populations from attaining a higher ed credential; 2) support students academically while enhancing their career skills, and 3) give students exposure to potential internships with industry partners in their area of study. The unique Career Scholars program serves two categories of students: graduating high school seniors and current ACC adult learners. Participants in the High School Career Scholars program work toward a certificate or associate degree in a field that was identified by the Texas Workforce Commission as having high demand and earning potential. These fields are: Arts, Digital Media & Communications; Business; Computer Sciences, Information Technology, Engineering; Education; Health Care; Manufacturing/Skilled Trades; Public & Social Services. The Career Scholars Program for adults is open to adult learners interested in the following career areas, which have strong hiring and salary opportunities: Accounting/Bookkeeping; Computer Sciences; Health Care; Manufacturing; and Applied Tech/Skilled Trades.

Academic coaches at ETBU work with students to help hold them accountable for all things academics. Our coaches help students develop study skills, good study habits, and continually assess the current academic status of our students. Coaches also help advise students with course scheduling, changing majors, and overall academic development. Academic coaching typically takes place once a week, with students working with the same academic coach throughout the semester (and, oftentimes, over the course of several semesters). Academic coaches discuss a student's current grades, attendance, and missing assignments during each session, and help students in setting up contact with instructors/professors when needed.

Academic coaching is an interactive process that focuses on the personal relationship created between student and coach. An academic coach helps students navigate obstacles they may encounter during their academic career by using individualized and holistic approaches. They guide students in understanding and adapting their learning behavior by challenging students to think about personal and/or professional goals as related to academic/educational goals. Academic coaches help empower students to take responsibility for your own learning.

• Help students thrive by adopting a holistic and transformational approach.
• To help students become self-reflective and determine a path toward success.
• Equip and empower students to be able to identify context-specific methods, processes, and integrated strategic approaches to learning, problem-solving, motivation, and time management.
• To provide Academic Coaches with campus wide support as they identify trending barriers students face.
• To encourage intentional departmental and hopefully systemic change with awareness of barriers faced by subpopulations of our students.

Academic Symposium

Rating
0.0 stars

While forging ahead with course platform innovations, the former one-hour course of College Assembly known as Chapel has been redesigned a weekly informative session of an Academic Symposium. This allows students to benefit from the experience of weekly interactions with professors and professionals. Interaction is an essential part of academic life. The symposium allows students to have exposure to division major presentations, and student demonstrations for creative intellectual purposes. The weekly symposiums that were initiated during the first week of the semester have proven to be beneficial. During the weekly interactions, students are given the opportunity to increase networking skills, meet with professors in their majors, improve communication and presentation abilities; plus glean the latest information that can have a positive impact on the Texas College academic community. Each major within the four divisions has committed to design programs for each week such as a major fair, internship orientations, graduate school opportunities, resume writing, financial literacy, soft-skill training, and various other motivational programs. Each session begins with an invocation, weekly announcements, reminders, and a weekly program. The Academic Symposium programming is designed to include the aspiration to respond to expectations of business and industry for core workplace skills mathematics, quantitative, analytical reasoning, written plus oral communication, and critical thinking/problem-solving. Having agreed on the three broad areas to be addressed, each division determined the learning outcomes. Thus, there has been an overwhelming response of attendance by students and faculty participation

DELIVERY FORMAT: The program is online only.

PROGRAM SCALE: Large-scale (reaches more than 25 percent of its intended target population)

PROGRAM OUTCOMES: The Academic Symposium is an influential learning tool for Texas College students. Students can become bored with the day-to-day humdrum of classes, and home. The symposium helps break the monotony of the college routine. In many ways, it can help instill a sense of camaraderie, and school spirit, or even help develop an interest in potential extracurricular activities and future careers.

The Ascender program began at Austin Community College in 2015. The mission of the program is to increase the educational attainment of Latinx students and other underserved communities in order to close equity gaps. That is, the Ascender program seeks to move ACC from a Hispanic serving institution to a Hispanic graduating institution by accelerating Latinx students, who are overrepresented in developmental education, to college-level coursework, and providing a structure of support to increase persistence and graduation. Ascender provides students with the academic, social, and leadership opportunities they need to graduate from community college, transfer and earn bachelor's degrees, and return to the community as leaders and mentors. The Ascender program is structured as a first-year experience program that provides wrap-around services including academic, student success, and community engagement components. Familia is at the heart of each component of the program. For instance, students move through their coursework as a learning community, developing affective and social bonds that ease their transition to college. In addition to the learning communities that provide support in academic coursework, Ascender hosts events, such as the Noche de Familia (family night), field trips to colleges/universities, motivational conferences, and other cultural events to further cohere the sense of belonging students feel at ACC. Because many Ascender students are first-generation college students, Ascender provides one-on-one mentoring through a volunteer mentoring program designed to introduce students to a network of role models and coaches that helps guide their first-year college experience. The network of Ascender mentors helps to facilitate greater navigation of sometimes challenging institutional structures.

Bring Bobcats Back is a formal outreach to undergraduate stop-outs at Texas State University who have not completed their bachelor's degree. The program started in 2018 by targeting 350 seniors close to graduation but not enrolled in the past year. Due to early success, the university expanded the program in June 2020. The goal was to contact all undergraduate students who stopped out between 1990 and 2018. The list was checked through the National Student Clearinghouse database for degree completion at other institutions. The university developed an external partnership with ReUp Education to scale the operation. We did outreach to over 25,000 students who had attended in the past 28 years. Since 2020, we have enrolled 438 students, currently engaging 2,252 about returning, and 119 have graduated. We have 37 that have applied for May 2022 graduation. We have 256 students enrolled this spring. The persistence rate from fall to spring was 83%. The university applied for and received a three million reskilling grant from the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board to help remove financial barriers. This grant has allowed us to expand the reach to stop-outs, displaced workers, or those who want to reskill. Each semester, after census day, we add any new names for outreach. The feedback data from stop-outs is helping us to be more proactive with retention practices. The six-year graduation rate jumped by 2.8% since 2019. (2013 cohort 54%, 2014 Cohort 55%, and 2015 cohort 56.8%). We expect hundreds more students will enroll and graduate in the coming years from the Bring Bobcats Back initiative.
