Historically Speaking, Cont’d  The Beginnings of “Early Intervention”, a home-grown program  In the beginning: ○ Paper and pencil results ○ Tally marks on white boards  The development of the online version

Early Intervention Today  Role of the faculty member  Success Coach Role  Role of the Academic Success Center  NOTE: Most of these students are Freshmen. “They don’t know they need help until they need the help, and by then, they don’t know who to contact for the help.” –Wendy Gruver

Early Intervention, continued  Services encouraged include:  Academics (tutoring, SI, TRIO, Grades First)  Non-Academics (counseling, assistance with residential life and other areas of student life/services, other services)

Through CSSP Grant, EARLY Early Intervention was implemented  Competency exams in College Algebra and Business Math during the second week of class.  Retake policy  Correlation between passing competency exam and passing exam #1  Correlation between passing competency exam and passing course  EARLY Early Intervention implemented

Data on Early Intervention  Fall 2009 reported 382 of 675 students “at risk”  Fall 2010 reported 728 of 763 students “at risk”  Defined “at risk” versus “in need of intervention”  Syllabi indicate 10-15% based on attendance which students indicate is not “worth their effort.”

Data on Success Coaches  Fall 2009-4 Success Coaches and 675 students  Fall 2010-4 Success Coaches and 763 students  Fall 2011-5 Success Coaches and 850+ students  Basic Skills policy affected SC case load  What faculty say does not translate effectively for students- “Attendance does not count”

Success Stories  Students say:  “not sure if you remember me or not but when I was a freshman in 2009 you were the voice of reason that keep me enrolled”  “If it was not for you I would not be an alumni”  “I just wanted to thank you and I hope you are still changing lives”
