S.E.R.V.E.S: Support Encouragement and Resources Vital for Educational Success Key Outcomes Strategic Goal 1: Recruitment and Progression of Education students Advisement philosophy and outcomes were passed during fall 2012 for the College of Education A short advisement questionnaire was developed based on outcomes for all COE advisors. The survey was collected during spring 2013 advisement. A longer annual survey was distributed to the pre-eds. 3. A second track to the Bachelor Degree in Education was developed and passed the Curriculum Committee in March 2013. We will begin students on this track in fall 2013. It allows us to keep more of our students in the College of Education. Developed a treasure map to success to distribute at Navigate and other recruitment events. Developed a transfer student information packet to better help transfer students navigate Armstrong and answer some basic questions about the College of Education. Utilization of one Student Ambassador to contact students that stopped out, students that had not been advised and prospective students to Armstrong. Student Ambassadors continued to serve as mentors to pre-education students (contacted students, recruitment events and socials). Education Mentors (same four from last year) assisted with advisement.
Future Activities • Develop a workshop for transfer students to help them adjust to Armstrong and help them become acquainted with the College of Education. • Utilization of other communication tools such as text messaging and pinterest to effectively communicate with students. Spice up Facebookand utilize twitter more. • Meet with Department Heads prior to advisement to be better informed about program and curricular changes so that students are not confused during advisement. • Continue with Student Ambassadors for the College of Education. • Continue to meet with low GPA students to help keep them on the right track. • Continue with the Education mentors especially during peak advisement periods. • Continue to improve advisement program by examining feedback received from students.
