Investigate Scheduling Optimal Class times for Lab School Visitation



Initiative TitleInvestigate Scheduling Optimal Class times for Lab School Visitation
Submitted in Previous Year(s)No
Critical Information, Notes, Justification, Rationale

In order for Education students to make the most of their time observing at the Lab School, they need to be present during active, play-based times of the day.  At times, our class schedule prohibits students from observing during these important times.  It is important to review our course schedule, and try to prevent courses requiring observations from occurring only during these active, play-based times of day.

Consequences of this initiative not being funded

Although no funding is required for this initiative, if it is not carried out, students may miss out on optimal field experiences for the courses, making their experience in courses less than ideal.

Assessment Methods

Method Description Other Method Responsible Party
Alumni Survey Surveying program alumni can provide information about program satisfaction, preparation (transfer or workforce), employment status, skills for success. Surveys can ask alumni to identify what should be changed, altered, maintained, improved, or expanded.
Entrance/Exit Interviews Interviews are conducted with students when they enter college and when they leave—either through graduation or early departure. These interviews can be designed to measure SLO, but can also be used to learn about students’ perceptions, gather feedback, on various college services, activities, etc.
