School Counseling Assessment Report Messiah College Spring 2016
Data on Student Learning • Gathered data from Fall of 2013 to Spring of 2015 (2 academic years ~ 9 terms) • 69 CACREP School Track Standards • 120 assessment points of student learning • 31/69 standards (45%)assessed at least twice • Data came from assignments in 6 different school track courses • Goals: • 100% of students graded 83% (B) or above • 100% of students at Acceptable or above (for site supervisor evaluations)
Results • Across all terms: • In 71 out 120 (59%) assessment points, 100% of our students reached our goal of a “B” or better across all term • If we were to change our target, we would only see a slight increase. • In 73 out of 120 assessment points, at least 93% or more of our students earned a “B” or better across all terms • Small class sizes impact results significantly • 3 out of a class of 4 = 75% • 5 out of a class of 6 = 83%
Questions • C.2 (Program Evaluation): Are students ready for this in Practicum? Should this be moved to Internship or can this be resolved at advising level? • D.2 (Ind/Group/Classroom): Is this happening consistently or do we need to be more intentional in field assignments? • D.3 (Addressing Diverse Needs): Is the ss evaluation an appropriate assessment for this or should we move to counseling video and reflection? • F.1 (MC Competency): Is a quiz a strong assessment for this? Assess in field experiences? • F.4 (Engaging Families): Critical and not meeting goal. Is this an appropriate assessment? • G.1 (Eating Disorders, Violence, etc.): Consistently not meeting goal. What are the pedagogy implications? • K.3(Classroom strategies): Need to cover more fully elsewhere? • P.2: (Parent Educational Program): Critical and not meeting goal. Is this an appropriate assessment?
Action Points: Teaching • A.1 (Philosophy of SC): Add essay portion to Scavenger Hunt in 508 • G.1 (Eating Disorders, Violence, etc.): Need to review instruction and quiz items in 508 • K.3 (Classroom Strategies): Add content and assessment to 525 • P.2 (Parent Educational Program): More specifically address this in curriculum
Action Points: Assessment • Need to look at each standard and assignment for meaning and placement. • Need to look at field assignments and assessments, specifically the evaluations, to be more precise. • Some standards (ex. C.2) are very large. Should we break these into subpoints? • Reconsider language used in site supervisor evaluations • Subpoints • Mirror SC State Evaluation Tool? • Evaluation tool is needed for classroom guidance and group counseling. • Assessment in 526 and 525 needs to be more precise in assessment plan: use weekly quizzes instead of quiz average, specific components of Portfolio rather than avg
