This book was released on 2005 with total page 93 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through the Underrepresented Groups Report, community colleges have an opportunity to report on initiatives and strategies aimed at increasing participation and achievement among individuals with Disabilities, Women, and Minorities. Underrepresented Groups Report production is an important annual statutory responsibility (Public Act 85-283) for community colleges and universities. Each community college provides a report detailing current activities and programs aimed at strengthening participation and progress among traditionally underrepresented student populations. Illinois Community College Board (ICCB) staff summarize the information provided by the individual colleges and forward it to officials from the Illinois Board of Higher Education (IBHE) who combine it with responses from the public universities and forward it to the Governor and General Assembly. This year's report begins with an overview of the demographic characteristics of community college students, completers, and faculty. External comparative information is referenced where available. The next portion of the report explores the current year's Focus Topic: Academic Achievement of Persons with Disabilities, Women, and Minorities using a variety of data sources and materials provided by the colleges. A five-year statewide analysis of the Integrated Postsecondary Education Data Systems (IPEDS) Graduation Rate Survey (GRS) data for Students with Disabilities, Female Students, and Minority Students from Illinois community colleges is included in this portion of the report. IPEDS GRS data provide a Combined Outcome Rate--which includes graduation, transfer, and persistence--and a Graduation Rate which only counts completions. A three-year analysis of statewide full-time, first-time student Fall to Fall retention rates for Underrepresented Groups is also provided. Summaries of what works, high impact Underrepresented Group promising programs, services, and initiatives related to improving academic achievement at selected community colleges are featured at the end of the section. The report also examines the need of additional resources for Underrepresented Groups at community colleges. Resources are needed to provide individuals from Underrepresented Groups who require additional support with programs and services to promote student success. Future directions, a summary, and recommendations are addressed at the end of the report. The following are appended: (1) Dollars and Staff Years Budgeted to Programs Serving Underrepresented Students and Staff at Illinois Community Colleges, Fiscal Years 2003 and 2004; (2) Students with Disabilities Tables for Individuals in Illinois Community Colleges, Fiscal Year 2004; and (3) Definitions for the Annual Report on Underrepresented Groups. (Contains 13 tables.) [Cover title varies: "Illinois Community College System Fiscal Year 2004 Underrepresented Groups Report."].

This book was released on 2005 with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Performance Report is an accountability initiative addressing important indicators and outcome measures that are built around the Policy Areas from the Illinois Board of Higher Educations' Illinois Commitment. The Illinois Commitment was developed based on the premise that higher education must be part of the process of providing a foundation for Illinois' future by enhancing the social, economic, and civic well-being of the state and its residents. The Policy Areas for the Illinois Commitment, addressed in this report, include: (1) Economic Growth: Higher education will help Illinois sustain strong economic growth through teaching, service, and research; (2) P-20 Partnerships/Teaching and Learning: Higher education will join elementary and secondary education to improve teaching and learning at all levels; (3) Affordability: No Illinois resident will be denied an opportunity for a college education because of financial need; (4) Access and Diversity: Illinois will increase the number and diversity of residents completing training and education programs; (5) High Quality: Illinois colleges and universities will be accountable for providing high quality academic programs and the systematic assessment of student learning outcomes while holding students to ever higher expectations for learning and growth; and (6) Accountability and Productivity: Illinois colleges and universities will continually improve productivity, cost effectiveness, and accountability. This document reports on the performance indicators for 2005 for each of these policy areas, showing accomplishments and challenges. The pledges in the Illinois Community College System's Promise for Illinois intentionally complement the goals. This report lists those pledges. Appendix A contains Mission-Specific Goals Selected by College. A subset of Illinois Commitment Policy Areas are focused on for the narrative portion of the Performance Report based on a rotating schedule. For the 2005 report, the narrative focus will be on the following Policy Areas: P-20 Partnerships Improving Teaching and Learning (Policy Area Two), Affordability (Policy Area Three), and Access and Diversity (Policy Area Four). While more targeted narrative reporting was required on these three Policy Areas, data reporting was required across all six Policy Areas. Institutional level community college Performance Reports included data and analysis on Common Institutional and Mission-specific Indicators. Information was also provided on local level Accomplishments, Challenges, Plans and Goals. Appendix B contains Common Measure Goal Statement.
