  1. Cal-PASS California Partnership for Achieving Student Success www.calpass.org

  2. How Education is Supposed to Work • A seamless transition among segments: k-16 • Well prepared students moving through a pipeline • Little or no remediation as students transition through the segments • Students prepared with the skills, knowledge and ability to enter the workforce

  3. A Matter of Misalignment • According to a recent report issued by the Stanford University Bridge Project: • “…the coursework between high school and college is not connected; students graduate from high school under one set of standards and, three months later, are required to meet a whole new set of standards in college.”

  4. Troubling Indicators • High HS drop-out rate • Up to 50% in large urban districts • Poor transition rates to college • Of every 100 students that start ninth grade, less than 31 enter college (NCHEMS, 2004) • Significant remediation needs in higher education • 70% Community Colleges • Almost 50% in California State Universities • Over 30% in University of California

  5. What Created the Disconnect? • The segments grew-up differently • Three separate systems in California (Silo approach) • Different control agencies • Different interest groups • Different goals • Lack of consistent standards across segments • Little/No alignment of curriculum

  6. What is Cal-PASS? • Facilitates collaboration among primary, secondary and post-secondary institutions on a regional basis • Collects actionable data and reports on student transition and success locally and statewide • Engages faculty and other educational leaders across segments in instructional conversations – The Cal-PASS Professional Learning Council model • Implements and evaluates educational innovations throughout the state and works to bring to scale those innovations that demonstrate success

  7. Cal-PASS Statistics • Over 385,000,000 records • Up to 15 years of data in some regions • Over 7,000 schools, colleges and university members • Over 327 research studies conducted in the last three years • Sixty+ Professional Learning Councils (1,200+ faculty)

  8. What Kinds of Data are Collected? • Anonymous student identifiers (personal information is removed or encrypted) • Student file • Demographic information • Course file • Course enrollments and grades • Student test file • STAR and California High School Exit Exam score • Award file • Diplomas, degrees, certificates • Custom files • Information collected on interventions

  9. Data Security FERPA compliant Data are anonymous – personal identifier information is removed or encrypted Locally run program encrypts and validates data prior to transmission Servers in secure, Level IV data center with firewall and controlled access Security document available atwww.calpass.org “Success at Every Level”

  10. Research • Action Research Paradigm: Faculty, administrators, and local researchers are active participants. Iterative process to refine analysis • Common questions become standard reports or web based queries produced by Cal-PASS Research Department • Locally unique questions handled by local researchers with assistance from Cal-PASS Researchers • SMART tool – Standardized Metrics for Analysis, Reporting and Tracking
