Educational Goals and Student Flow: Model for Institutional Student Flow and Follow-up. TEX-SIS FOLLOW-UP SC7.
Hood, Duane
This report details the development and implementation of a follow-up system, by Western Texas Community College (WTCC) as a subcontractor for Project FOLLOW-UP, relating student flow patterns to educational goals. Phase I of this project involved establishment of a data base which included elements designed to reveal an adequate picture of student flow as related to educational goals and outcomes. Data elements included were: semester and year, major, educational goal, method of goal achievement, on-campus or extension enrollment, ethnic origin, age at admission, residence code, sex, and mode of original admission. A Student Educational Intent Card, developed by Project FOLLOW-UP, was used to obtain information for the data base. Phase II activities included: follow-up of all graduates of WTCC since its inception; follow-up of all nonreturning students who attended WTCC during specified periods; follow-up of all employers of WTCC technical or vocational graduates; and research on student flow of all graduates based on mode of admission. Findings of the Phase II surveys are analyzed in terms of student flow and goal completion. Twelve student flow charts, instrumentation for the project, and sample forms utilized are appended. (JDS)
