Articulation Accountability Measures Report, 1994.
Florida State Dept. of Education, Tallahassee. Office of Postsecondary Education Coordination.
This report by the Florida Articulation Coordinating Committee defines seven objectives or goals of articulation and measures that indicate how well the objectives are being met. The report includes the most recent data available, identified by objective and measure. Objective 1 is to adequately prepare secondary students so they can smoothly articulate to a postsecondary institution; to provide for basic skills and knowledge level assessment; and to determine the relationship between the College Level Academic Skills Test (CLAST) and articulation. Data presented that relate to this objective include the number of 1991-92 high school graduates, the number of graduates entering postsecondary education, student readiness for college, CLAST results, and degree attainment. Objective 2 is to provide articulated acceleration mechanisms that allow secondary students to proceed through the educational system as rapidly as their circumstances permit. Related data include the number and percent of secondary students participating in advanced placement and international baccalaureate programs. Objective 3 is to facilitate the smooth transfer of community college associate in arts degree graduates to a state university. Related data include the number of degree-holding transfer students, and data on the academic performance of transfer students. Objective 4 is to provide access to programs to all students meeting course prerequisites and earning a satisfactory grade point average. Related measures focus on limited access programs and program enrollments. Objective 5 is to provide quality education that prepares students for their chosen career within the parameters of 60 credit hours for an associate degree and 120 hours for a baccalaureate degree. Data on credit hours to degree are included. Objective 6 is to provide a logical progression and sequencing of courses for vocational certificate students. While measures for this objective were identified, none are available. Objective 7 is to determine the relationship between articulation accountability measures and systematic efforts, processes, and services; articulation activities are listed. (KP)
