  2. IGNITING TRANSFORMATION Transformation means that you’re really fundamentally changing the way the organization thinks, the way it responds, the way it leads. Lou Gerstner

  3. In the News

  4. Studies in the Press

  5. Data Sources: • Census Bureau • Bureau of Labor Statistics "Remedial Education: Federal Education Policy." Jun 2013. Council on Foreign Relations. Nov 2013. http://www.cfr.org/united-states/remedial-education-federal-education-policy/p30141#

  6. Supporting the Research Agenda Patterns of transfer, mobility and concurrent enrollment Patterns of credential completion Factors that contribute to successful outcomes

  7. https://www.mischooldata.org • MI School Data is an online data portal created by the Center for Educational Performance and Information (CEPI) • K-12 Data Reports – enrollment and assessment • Statewide education dashboard • New Reports with College Data • And more is coming soon! • Who has access? • The public (no password required) • Secure users (password required)

  8. College Data • Collect student data at the K-12 and postsecondary levels • Connect student records between levels and institutions • Report data to K-12 and postsecondary users making the data useful for program evaluation • Report data to the public making the data useful for public inquiry and policy

  9. About the Data • All Michigan publicly funded colleges annually submit complete academic records with Unique Identification Codes (UICs) • A limited number of independent colleges also submit complete datasets directly to CEPI • Independent colleges and out-of-state institutions submit more limited data to the National Student Clearinghouse (NSC) • Some colleges do not submit to NSC • CEPI obtains NSC records for all Michigan high school students (graduates, drops, completers), as well as all postsecondary students

  10. Reports Available • Public Reports by High School or School District • College Enrollment by High School • 24 College Credits • College Remedial Coursework • Public Reports by College • College Undergraduate Enrollment • College Transfer – New! • Student Pathways (Secure Reports) – New! • by High School • by College

  16. College Remedial Coursework

  17. College Enrollment Report

  18. College Enrollment –Tips About the Data • Records without UICs – not included • Report is not limited to fall enrollment • includes entire academic year • Report not based on fiscal year data; it is the academic year. • Enrollment determined by any course taken during the academic year. • Age is determined using the date of birth as of September 30th. • STARR data is collected May-June of each year and may not align with other reporting snapshots.

  19. College Enrollment –Tips About the Data • STARR collects individual student-level data whereas other collections may be using aggregate data. • Academic year was derived. • For the STARR 2014 collection, the academic year data element will be modified to eliminate the need for this derived value. • Some of the data used is based on pilot data, which gets cleaner with time. • Degree-seeking students are determined using the data element "Level of Achievement" and any enumeration other than "NonDegree."

  20. New Report - College Transfer Report

  21. College Transfer Report • Developed with a workgroup comprised of community college, university, and higher education association representatives. • First Phase – From Two Year Colleges to Four Year Colleges • Students included: • undergraduate students who were attending a Michigan 2-year community college and transferred to a 4-year Michigan public, Michigan independent or out of state college or university

  22. College Transfer Report • The report displays: • counts and percentages of student transfers • average cumulative GPA • data are available by race/ethnicity and gender subgroups • Where do data come from? • STARR – Student Transcript and Academic Record Repository • Includes all Michigan public colleges and independent colleges that report • National Student Clearinghouse (NSC) • Michigan independent colleges that do not report to STARR • Out-of-State colleges that participate in NSC • Not all colleges send data to NSC • STARR data is used if available • NSC data used only when STARR is not available

  23. College Transfers - Who is a Transfer? • A “transfer” is a student who started in one college or university and moved to another. • students who attended a 2-year community college in the previous academic year and in the subsequent year left the community college and enrolled in a 4-year college or university. • Does not include a “concurrent” student who attends two or more colleges at the same time. • college entry date used to identify transfer students and separate them from concurrently enrolled students • Report may be different than what was reported to IPEDS, Perkins/Activities Classification Structure, or Community College Services

  24. College Transfers Edit Report

  25. Sample College Transfer Report

  26. College Transfers - Questions that can be Addressed • How many students from my community college transferred to a Michigan 4-year, Independent (Non-Public) 4-year or Out of State college or university? • What was the average GPA for students who transferred from a community college to a 4-year college or university after their first year of transfer? • What was the cumulative GPA of all of my transfers? • What community college did my students transfer from? • Did my community college successfully prepare students to continue at a 4-year college or university?

  27. How can this be used by Michigan Independent Institutions? • The Student Transfer report includes counts for independents • Select Community College and see the counts for transfers by institution, including: • Michigan public 4-year institutions • Michigan independent institutions • Aggregate count for all out-of state transfers • Select the Independent Institution and see the counts for students transferring from Michigan Community Colleges

  28. New Report – Student Pathways Reports

  29. Student Pathways Reports • Basic Student Data File • A row for each college session that a student is enrolled including high school assessment data, session and cumulative achievement; • Courses File • Students achievement in each course in which the student was enrolled; • Programs and Concentrations • Majors, programs and concentrations in which students have been enrolled • Awards, Degrees, and Certificates • Awards, degrees and certificates completed by each student

  30. Student Pathways - What is in the Files? • Courses • UIC, IPEDS Code, Course Code, Course Title, Credit Earned, Grade, Hours, Remedial Flag • Not available for out-of-state and independent institutions • Programs • UIC, IPEDS Code, CIP Code, Program Type, Program Name • Awards • Level, Date, Description, CIP Code • College List • IPEDS Code, IHE Name, 2year/4 year flag

  31. Student Pathways - Questions To Address • How well does my school or college prepare students for advanced work? • Does my school better prepare students for certain types of academic work? • What programs or concentrations do students enroll in after leaving my school? • What awards, degrees, and certificates do students obtain after they leave my school? • Which colleges or universities do students enroll in after they leave my school? • What students enroll in remedial courses after they leave my school or college?

  32. Student Pathways Security • File(s) available only to Authorized Users • Two-step Security Model • Logged in user requests data file(s) • User receives email message containing link(s) to file(s) • System checks user status when retrieving file(s) • System transfers files is user is authenticated • Link(s) in email expire after set time • Goal is to be sure that only an authorized user can retrieve the file(s) • Files contain Personally Identifiable Information protected by FERPA
