This presentation by Dan Bradley discusses the effective use of dashboards and rubrics for measuring progress and performance in educational settings. A rubric serves as a clear set of criteria for assessment, while a dashboard organizes and presents pertinent data in an easily digestible format. Effective benchmarks are essential for tracking strategic goals, such as total enrollment and student retention. The presentation emphasizes aligning institutional mission, vision, and values, and focuses on celebrating achievements while facilitating timely interventions to enhance student success.

Dashboards & Rubrics:Measuring Progress & Performance Dan Bradley July 20, 2011
Definitions • A rubric is an explicit set of criteria used for assessing a particular type of work or performance. • A dashboard is a user interface that, somewhat resembling an automobile's dashboard, organizes and presents information in a way that is easy to read. • A benchmark is a target. Often an intermediate measure used to judge success in achieving a larger, more complex goal.
Start Big • Mission • Vision • Values
Strategic Plan • Why? • Should have as its over-riding goal realization of the vision, meeting of the mission while living the values.
Macro Level • Vision • Strategic Plan • Strategic Benchmarks • Initiative Benchmarks Benchmarks draw a picture of what you want the future to be. They are what you would “see” if you were standing on a “hill” that is the goal OR “mountain” that is the vision
Macro Scale • Strategic Benchmarks • Need to be broad and as easily measured and communicated as possible • eg. • Total Enrollment • Freshman Retention
Operational Scale • Goals and Strategic Benchmarks need to be disaggregated (no flock shooting) • Strategic Goal • Total Enrollment XXXX • Initiative Goals • Transfer student enrollment • African American student enrollment • Out of state student enrollment Achieving initiative goals should, by design, more than ensure that strategic goals will be met.
Example • New Student Enrollment • Conditionally admitted Freshman • Unconditionally admitted Freshman • Corrections Education • International • Out-of-State • In-state • Transfer Students • Corrections Education • International • Out-of-State • In-state
Dashboards Why? • Stay focused on what is important • Facilitate intervention • Pinpoint specific measures not meeting expectations to be modified or replaced • Provide regular reports for campus and higher authorities • Celebrate Success!!
Dashboard Examples • ISU • Strategic • Initiative • Other
So What! In preparing your proposal, you must address: • Benchmarks both at the goal and initiative level • Dashboards that will report on progress Both you and the institution will need accurate measures on your progress and level of success
