Proceedings

Approval of Minutes from the Previous Meeting – September 14, 2017

B. Giblin moved to approve the minutes.

F. Quezada seconded the motion.

Sabbaticals

N. Budwig called a motion to recommend the sabbatical recommendations to the full BOT: the motion was approved.

Updates – Provost’s Direct Reports

The Provost's direct reports presented on various updates in each of their respective areas (updates can be found in the packet handed out at this meeting).

Page 1 of 28




Some of the updates sparked some questions from the BOT members; they are as follows. o Continuing Education:

F. J. Cevallos, Linda Vaden-Goad, and John Strickland visited the World of Work (WoW) program in Liverpool, England.

J. Strickland will undergo a training at John Moores University, then bring back his knowledge to the FSU community.

N. Budwig said that the program holds so much potential. She asked how students will take advantage of the program in their careers.

o S. Greenberg said that one complaint he hears from industry is that while students may have the technical skills necessary for their jobs, they lack adequate soft skills, such as problem solving, analytical reasoning, and giving presentations.

S. Greenberg said that these will be integrated into the program.

J. Strickland will work with the faculty to see what is actually happening in the classrooms.

o E. Beilin said that CELTSS would help with this; in fact, it has already started by offering new teaching circles.

o N. Budwig stated that there are achievement gaps for some FSU students. Those who would benefit most from the college experience are usually not able to obtain the resources necessary to have valuable learning experiences, such as study abroad.

N. Budwig said that she would be happy to share her research on this with E. Beilin.

o F. Quezada asked what FSU should expect financially from online learning programs. S. Greenberg mentioned that there is a state reciprocity program called SARA

that allows colleges and universities to offer online programs in other states without incurring fees. Massachusetts has just applied to participate in SARA. Once its application is approved, FSU will be able to apply as well. Membership in SARA will allow us to market our online programs in other states, thus resulting in increased enrollment and revenue.

There is a need for an online MBA program, and FSU's pricing structure is very competitive.

The major growth area in Continuing Education and Graduate Studies is online learning.

S. Greenberg is trying to bring more bachelor completion programs online as well, such as our major in Management.

o R. Logan asked about the revenue from online programming, and whether or not it is a potential profit center for FSU.

D. Hamel said that Continuing Education and Graduate Studies run their online learning programs as a profit center.

S. Greenberg confirmed that it is indeed a profit center. We are offering 25 online or hybrid courses during the Winter Intersession. During the summer, there are more students taking courses online than in the classroom.

The online courses are not meant to replace the traditional classroom; instead, they provide more options to current and potential students.

o F. Quezada told L. Flannagan that he has really hit the ground running in his area. He then asked to what degree FSU is making efforts to raise the consciousness of

educational policy, given that it is currently under threat by the Trump Administration.

Page 2 of 28




L. Flannagan said that there are always new requirements in this country for teacher programs and that FSU must be willing and able to comply.

Professors will submit expressions of concern, but they still must meet the standards and expectations of the state, the federal government, and accrediting bodies.

It is expensive to maintain accreditation and there is a lot of work that goes into it. Candidates are always informed of this in their interviews.

Closing

The meeting was adjourned N. Budwig.

NEED FOR PROGRAM & GRADUATES

• The Bachelor of Science degree program in Child and Family Studies will prepare students to work in the field of Early Education and Care (EEC) as teachers and directors/program administrators in early childhood care settings. There are significant needs in this field regionally and nationally.

• According to the Massachusetts Executive Office of Labor and Workforce Development, there will be a 9.3% increase in jobs for preschool care education administrators in the MetroWest area between 2016 and 2018.

• Employment projections for preschool teachers in the MetroWest area further suggest a 9.8% increase in these jobs during this same time period.

• Within the past year, approximately 180 early education and care centers from the MetroWest area posted employment positions in Framingham State University’s RamTrack. RamTrack is an online job posting database for students, alumni and employers.

• Fifty-eight percent of MetroWest area Early Education and Care (EEC) center directors/program administrators responded to a needs assessment survey in October of 2015.

Page 8 of 28

3/5/2018

NEED FOR PROGRAM & GRADUATES-CONTINUED

• Seventy-nine percent of center directors/program administrators stated a need for

staff holding a bachelor’s degree in early childhood education or a related field.

• Eighty-four percent of the participants indicated that if Framingham State offered

a major in Child and Family Studies, they would refer their staff members to

enroll in this program.

• Twenty-six child care center teachers/assistant teachers in the MetroWest area

responded to the survey. Fifty-six percent of respondents stated some interest in

receiving a BS degree in Child and Family Studies at FSU.

• Of the 287 FSU students who completed a similar questionnaire in June of 2017,

44.6% of respondents mentioned how they were somewhat likely, or very likely

to pursue the Child and Family Studies major.

• Students enrolled in the College of Education were most likely to choose the

major, followed by undeclared majors, and students enrolled in the College of

Social and Behavioral Sciences. The top six majors most likely to choose Child

and Family Studies were Early Childhood Education, Elementary Education,

Sociology, Psychology, English and undeclared major students.

STRATEGIES TO ATTRACT STUDENTS

• Framingham State will participate in the Mass Transfer Pathways for Early

Childhood Education. Students from approximately fifteen community

colleges in the Commonwealth will be able to transfer four courses into the

Child and Family Studies major.

• The Child and Family Studies major will attract underrepresented and

underserved groups at the university, as a result of recruitment visits by FSU

faculty/staff at local high schools. Collaborative recruitment initiatives will be

developed with MassBay, Quinsigamond and Middlesex Community Colleges

to attract students from these groups.

• Prospective students will receive information regarding the Mass Dept. of

Higher Education’s Early Childhood Educators Scholarship Program. The scholarship will provide financial assistance for employed early childhood,

and child care providers who enroll in an undergraduate, or graduate degree

program in Early Childhood Education or related programs.

● FSU received final approval from the Massachusetts Board of Higher Education to offer the Child and Family Studies BS degree program for this fall. There is a growing need in this region and state for highly qualified Early Education and Care (EEC) teachers, as well as EEC directors for early childhood care centers. The Child and Family Studies major will be very attractive for those seeking a BS degree in a profession with teachers and leaders committed to educating preschoolers and their families.

● The Centers for Early Childhood Education have been selected by DESE and EEC to pilot the new prek-kindergarten learning guidelines for reading and writing during February-April. The pilot will involve using the proposed guidelines to plan and implement instruction and/or assess learning. We also will use the guidelines as part of the CECE’s professional development. The pilot project will conclude by the end of April with the completion of a survey.

● The Teacher Education Club held a very successful Panel of Teachers program on February 22. The panel consisted of ten elementary and secondary education teachers, and school

Advising: Christopher Gregory

For the first time in ten years, incoming first-year students will choose their own classes for the first semester in Fall 2018. To assist, the Offices of Academic Advising and the Registrar’s Office are revising the First-Year Advising Guide so students are provided tools to learn the process of choosing courses.

Guided Pathways provide students with appropriate semester-by-semester course plans as dictated by academic departments. Incoming undeclared students will also be advised on appropriate course work to ensure they are exposed to potential majors without falling behind in their sequence toward a major.

Center for Academic Success & Achievement (CASA): LaDonna Bridges

● Supplemental Instruction (SI) is being offered in 35 courses this semester, providing more than 100 hours each week of peer-led tutoring for difficult courses with high rates of students earning Ds, Fs or withdrawing.

● Disability/Access Services is partnering with ETO to lead efforts around accessible coursework. A group of eight faculty across disciplines is piloting a Blackboard tool, Ally, to evaluate the accessibility of their online course materials. The tool also assists in correcting and improving issues of accessibility with course materials that are housed in Blackboard. The effort includes all courses and is not limited to online courses. A broader effort for accessible course materials will evolve from this group and across the University.

● Thirteen students with intellectual disabilities in transition programming at local school districts are auditing courses and participating in internships at FSU. The Diverse Scholars Program draws from neighboring school districts of Marlborough, Natick, Westborough, Hopkinton, Algonquin (Northborough/Southborough), Grafton and Assabet Valley Collaborative.

● In January, more than 90 first-year students participated in academic success programming at CASA which included meeting faculty, working with advisors, and learning about academic support resources.

● The AmeriCorps VISTA in CASA oversees three community mentorships involving Framingham State students: homework help at Framingham Housing Authority’s Musterfield Place; reading buddies at Bethany Hill; and college possible programming through Pelham Pals (Pelham Apartments).

● The Student Assistance Team (SAT) continues to work in tandem with faculty to address students of concern. The interdisciplinary team of academic affairs administrators, faculty, and student affairs representatives addressed concerns raised for nearly 50 students fall semester.

● The CASA Success Team managed nearly 2,500 flags raised through Starfish to address student academic performance during fall semester. Attendance, change in academic performance or underpreparedness represented the majority of the flags raised by faculty; general concerns about a student’s behavior were also raised through the tool and addressed. CASA continues to work closely with Lauren Keville to refine and broaden the use of the Starfish tool.

● LaDonna Bridges and Lauren Keville recently presented at the American Association of State Colleges and Universities annual Provost meeting in San Antonio, Texas, about FSU’s experience implementing Starfish. “Making Change Simple” was featured as part of the Reimagining the First Year initiative of AASCU.

Center for Excellence in Learning, Teaching, Scholarship, & Service (CELTSS): Elaine Beilin, Jon Huibregtse

● CELTSS sponsored the third annual Advising is Teaching and Mentoring workshop on Saturday, February 3rd. Seventeen faculty members participated in a program organized by Director of

Page 20 of 28



Advising, Dr. Chris Gregory. Sessions included “Solution-Based Advising,” led by Deborah McMakin (Psychology and Philosophy), and Annemarie Samar (Nursing); “Half-Full First-Year Students: Being a Culturally Responsive Advisor,” led by Associate Dean of Academic Success, LaDonna Bridges; and “Difficult Conversations—Practical Tips for Challenging topics in Advising,” led by Aline Davis (Biology) and Academic Advisor and Coordinator of the PLUS Program, Emily Abel.

● The CELTSS Mentoring Program run by Ira Silver (Sociology) featured two sessions. On January 19, Amy Knapp (Biology) and Mary-Ann Stadtler-Chester (World Languages) led “The Pedagogy of Advising: Making our Meetings with Students a Learning Experience”; and on February 9, Lisa Eck (English ) and Brian Bishop (Art and Music ) led ‘Campus Involvement: Ways to Serve Your Department and the University.”

● As a response to last semester’s hate crimes, CELTSS programming for the spring includes sponsorship of a book circle facilitated by Biology professor, Dr. Amy Knapp, and Director of Equal Opportunity, Title IX, and ADA Compliance, Kim Dexter. Twenty-four faculty and staff will join them for five sessions to discuss Diane J. Goodman’s Promoting Diversity and Social Justice.

Honors Program: Paul Bruno

● Program Reapproval: On Feb. 15, 2018 the Board of Higher Education’s Commonwealth Honors Program (CHP) site visit team spent the day on campus evaluating our program for renewal as a CHP member. The team’s day on campus included visits with the faculty program director and assistant director, honors faculty, the deans, honors students, the Provost, and the President.

● Program Diversity: In our efforts to diversify the program, we have invited five students into the honors program based on their fall semester grades.

● Program Volunteer Work: Four honors students and Dr. Lori Lavigne, the assistant director of the program, went into the Boston House (formerly the Ronald McDonald House) last month in order to cook dinner for families whose children are being treated for cancer at Children’s Hospital.

● Annual Honors Dinner: Our dinner celebrating the achievements of our honors students will be held Wednesday, April 18 at the Warren Center.

● Program outing: Fourteen honors students will travel to Somerville in order to tour the facility at TAZA Chocolate. They may sample some chocolate as well.

Institutional Effectiveness – Institutional Process & Efficiencies: Cynthia Glickman

● I am retiring from the university effective March 2, 2018. I have been aggressively preparing the university for this transition. My goal is to generate the minimum impact to the university during the transition.

● Successfully moved the post-tenure review (PTR) management process from a manual spreadsheet process to an automated process using new screens in our student information system (SIS) - Banner - and our reporting tool - Argos.

● Provided additional reports to department chairs to assist in predicting the number of courses needed for the fall 2018 semester.

Institutional Effectiveness – Institutional Research: Ann Caso

● The 2018 National Survey of Student Engagement (NSSE) Survey launched on February 22, 2018. NSSE is used to measure the level of student participation as it relates to learning and engagement. An invitation to the survey link was emailed to all first year and senior students and a direct link is available on their myFramingham account. In an effort to improve response rates students who complete the survey by April 17th will be entered in a raffle for Bose® headphones.

International Education: Jane Decatur

● A group of 40 high school teachers from Shandong Province, China visited Framingham on February 28, 2018. Admissions presented an overview, followed by a tour of campus. The group stayed for lunch and questions. They will bring back first-hand information on FSU to their high schools students for consideration in their college decisions.

● The summer Teach in China program expects to enroll 300 Chinese students. FSU faculty will be teaching in either Beijing or Shanghai

● The annual Teach/Work/Volunteer Abroad Alumni Panel was held on February 28, 2018 for study abroad returnees. This is always an anticipated event for current students to hear from alumni about post-graduate opportunities abroad.

● Study abroad numbers appear to be strong for summer and fall with approximately 40 students planning to study abroad for fall semester and 20 for the summer term.

● An upcoming meeting on April 5, 2018 with Bermuda College will focus on the feasibility of opening a site there to offer Masters degrees in teaching through the C. Louis Cedrone International Education Center, which offers a variety of graduate programs for educators and professionals living and working overseas.
