A. Call to Order
B. Approval of Minutes
No previous minutes ready for approval.
C. Action Items
1. None at this time
D. Information / Discussion Items
1. PLO tracking sheets
David Babb informed the committee that the tracking sheets for completed instructional and institutional support PLO assessment reports were ready to use and uploaded to the SLOC portal site.
2. SLOC membership modification in PGC Manual
David Babb informed the committee that the changes to the PGC Manual related to the SLOC were sent to and approved by PGC. The changes reduced the number of classified representatives from four to two. It was also noted that the co-chair of the SLOC could also serve as the Counseling representative.
3. ISLOs – Arkady Hanjiev WHCC SLOC Chair
Arkady Hanjiev led a discussion of ISLOs and how the Coalinga campus is approaching them. He introduced the committee to the Degree Qualifications Profile (DQP) Grid, which Coalinga is using to guide their development of ISLOs. Kristin Clark suggested some examples of ISLOs from other colleges that she had shared with the committee via email. The committee discussed, in general, the types of ISLOs we needed. It was decided that during the SLOnoCurricuPrOER workshop immediately following this meeting that James, David, Arkady, Ana, and Dave Neer would develop a draft of the ISLOs that WHCL would use. The ISLOs drafted would be put out for review and input from the college and voted on at the next SLOC meeting.
4. eLumen
David Babb updated the committee on the eLumen training that he and Arkady had been receiving from Matt Coombs and Robyn Tornay. There are difficulties arising with setting eLumen up correctly since it is a single instance for two colleges. eLumen has never been set up that way and it is causing difficulties with assigning roles to people on one campus without them having the same role on the other campus. eLumen is still encouraging West Hills to separate into two different instances for each college. The cost to the district will be the same.
