Question Person(s) Responsible Time Allotted
A faculty member asked why DSPS doesn't tell faculty which students are DSPS students. Frank and Jeff will give us more information about this issue, and we will discuss it. Frank Kobayashi, Jeff Stephenson 20 min.
In previous meetings we have discussed the fact that cumbersome forms and procedures can create barriers for students, and there is a need to improve them. Koue Vang will lead a team in doing this work. How can we best structure and support this team? Frank Kobayashi, Koue Vang 40 min.
Student Communication. With remote learning, students rely heavily on digital communications and the College website to get the information they need. Now that the case management-based student support model recommended by IPASS is in place (Homebases), is it time to revisit the recommendations around improving communication to students? If so, how should we move forward? According to research done by the IPASS team, there may be opportunities to improve student retention by improving communication. Please see the attached section of the IPASS report regarding student communications. Sarah Lehmann 20 min.
