Page 2: Achieving the Dream Using Data at SFCC

Definitions

• Data Set – The data consist of the total credit course enrollments for grades (i.e. minus audits and classes dropped or deleted prior to census) in Fall, 2005. N=10,223

• This is a duplicate count. That is, if a single student enrolled in 4 courses in fall semester, they would equate to 4 data points in the overall data set.

Page 3: Achieving the Dream Using Data at SFCC

Definitions

• Success Rate – the percentage of students who complete a credit course with a grade of “A,” “B,” “C,” “P,” “IP,” or “PR.”

• Non-Success Rate – the percentage of students who complete a credit course with a grade of “D,” “F,” or “I.”

• Withdrawal Rate – the percentage of students who drop a credit course after the census date

Page 4: Achieving the Dream Using Data at SFCC

Definitions

• Full-Time – Students enrolled for 12 credits or more in Fall 2005

• Part-Time – Students enrolled for less than 12 credits in Fall 2005

• Degree-Seeking – Students who have declared a major as of Fall 2005

• Non-Degree-Seeking – Students who have not declared a major as of Fall 2005

Page 5: Achieving the Dream Using Data at SFCC

Interpreting the Data

• What should be an overall benchmark goal?

• Common sense versus statistical models

• How much difference makes a difference?

Page 6: Achieving the Dream Using Data at SFCC

Why course completion?

• Basic student retention data must account for at least 2 important variables– Student intent to persist– Environmental variables

• Course completion data accounts for student intent

• Course completion leads to retention which leads to graduation
