I will attend the training

Dual Enrollment

2023-05-05 19:23:37 UTC

Is there a centralized "Dual Enrollment" help desk or FAQ for students, professors and parents? Do students work with liaisons between their HS and MDC? Helen Roland

Clarity issues for faculty regarding Dual Enrollment students registered for their courses.
Partnering with HSs, not only teachers but also HS appropriate administrators---How can faculty assist?

Plenty of OER out there for SLS. Current MDC LibGuide has many good resources.

I'm not sure that certification is really necessary, but I'm open to the ideas of others.

In my experience, many students fail due to the textbook. I would love to get rid of it and use something more affordable or OER materials.

2023-05-08 11:35:46 UTC

I want to develop an SLS/ENC 1101 integrated course. I spend a lot of time teaching the same thing in ENC that I do in SLS, and, honestly, students should be applying the information from SLS to all of their courses.

2023-05-08 11:36:41 UTC

Taught high school for seven years and would be happy to work on this project.

SLS for Education Majors

2023-05-09 02:24:12 UTC

The School of Education has discussed working with SLS faculty to develop an SLS course for education majors specifically. This would help streamline some of the lower division students into our upper division programs.

SLS Certified

I am certified, but I think the certification should be renewed annually. As things change in the college, core requirements, etc., so should the course. If we as instructors are not up to date, neither will the students or the course. I would be interested in continuing to do the train the trainer certification which is the one I have.
Thanks.
Trinidad
p.s. Also, we should do it in multi languages, not just English.

Changemaking and SLS

2023-05-10 20:06:36 UTC

I am interested in working on an SLS curriculum (for both 1106 and 1510) that is contextualized with changemaking content and pedagogical practices. (S. LaFleur)

Led SLS redesign @ FIU; created and facilitated SLS trainings for faculty/staff
Wonderings:
* Who teaches SLS at MDC?
* What are the objectives of the course?
* How do students feel about the course? What changes would they make?
* How do faculty feel about the course? What changes would they make?
* What models have we considered (if any)?
* Which projects work well? What activities/projects are "non-negotiable" (if any)?

Created SLS textbook (used in FIU DE program); taught DE at SAS Kendall campus for 5 yrs; serve as DE mentor for FIU's English dept. (7+ yrs.)
Wonderings:
* Are there DE-specific goals for SLS?

Belkis Cabrera

Created and taught OERed LIT1000; serve in OER committee; focus on OER in course redesign project (through WeLearn grant)
Wonderings:
* Are all SLS courses OER (zero cost textbook)?

Love the idea of a Changemaking SLS! Agree with incorporating SLS pieces across the "gateway" courses :)

"At 4-year colleges, belonging was positively associated with persistence, use of campus services, and mental health (ps < .05; see Table 1). There were no significant interactions between belonging, URM status, and FG status, suggesting that belonging (as measured here) was equally predictive for students from different backgrounds (see Appendix Figure A1 available on the journal website and “Discussion”). However, very low belonging—which was more common among URM and FG students—appears especially pernicious, associated with considerably lower persistence (see Appendix Table A6 available on the journal website). Results are robust to a large number of alternate models and sensitivity checks, including models that include institutional, student, and time fixed effects; institutional selectivity as a covariate or moderator; self-efficacy as a covariate; institutional expenditures as a covariate; and others (see Appendix Tables A7–A12 available on the journal website).

In contrast, at 2-year colleges, belonging was not significantly associated with any of the core outcomes in primary models (see Table 1). That said, in supplemental models, within-student changes in belonging over time (first year to third year) were positively associated with all core outcomes at both 2-year and 4-year schools (see Appendix Table A10 on the journal website)."

Structure: Where should SLS live? Who "handles" SLS?

bcbcbc — 2023-05-12 15:18:13 UTC

Redesign: Are we talking about redesigning SLS structure or content of class or BOTH? Organizational structure or instructional design?

bcbcbc — 2023-05-12 15:18:55 UTC

What is the MDC policy? expectations? objectives?

bcbcbc — 2023-05-12 15:21:17 UTC

What are the SLS structures that exist across the college? How do they enroll? What is the college policy vs campus-by-campus policy?

bcbcbc — 2023-05-12 15:21:48 UTC

Certification: Do we have recertifications to teach SLS across the college?

bcbcbc — 2023-05-12 15:22:24 UTC

Umbrella: Where does SLS belong? Who makes decisions about SLS?
