 +
 +  * Forms of learning evident in scholarship, partnership, and leadership that thoughtfully engages with children and youth, families, schools, higher education institutions, businesses and nonprofits with diverse perspectives and backgrounds.
 +  * Continuous collective reflection and self-reflection on the ways in which race, ethnicity, economic resources, languages, abilities, histories, geography, first-generation status, age, gender, sexual identities, veteran status, and cultural and faith practices surface and inform our shared commitments and interactions.
 +  * Prioritizing psychological, emotional, and physical safety.
 +  * Prioritizing the sense of belonging for all members of our community.
 +  * Courage in our commitments to risk, reflect, and improve.
 +
 +==== Inclusive Excellence Programming Areas ====

-Administrative managers and program representatives will receive a program budget template at the beginning of the fiscal year for use in planning their budget for the yearZero-based budgeting is used in the formulation of both these budgets (i.estarting from scratch). The requested budget will then be reviewed by the Assistant Dean and the Dean.

-Remaining program funds roll forward year after year. Program budgets should only include items that pertain to the program as a whole and not expenses for individual faculty. For example, a retreat or marketing expense for the benefit of the program would be an appropriate program expense. A faculty member’s conference travel, registration fee or membership dues to various organizations would not be an appropriate program expense but would be an appropriate expense for faculty professional development funds.\\\\ +

-//Objective 2: Improve Access & Support//+====== Diversity and Inclusion ======
  
-//Objective 3: Increase Retention of Faculty Staff//+The majority of faculty members in the School of Education Human Development (SEHD) have K-12 teaching or counseling experience, often in settings with members from diverse racial, language, gender, and socioeconomic backgrounds. Those experiences have drawn them to this urban university and have shaped our organizational and moral commitment to respecting diversity and pursuing equity. SEHD faculty believes that lives are forever changed with access to excellent education and quality mental health services. As a public university, we are committed to increasing educational opportunities among underserved populations.
  
-//Objective 4: Acquire New Financial & HR Program Support//+The Denver metro area population, indeed the population in the state and nation, is rapidly becoming more racially, culturally and ethnically diverse. It is our responsibility and commitment to prepare educators and counselors who represent diverse groups. It is also our responsibility to prepare all educators and counselors to provide culturally responsive educational and mental health services for the increasing diversity of our society.
  
-**Please contact Aswad Allen PhDAssistant Dean of Diversity and Inclusion**+Finallydiversity of action, research and viewpoints (ways of knowing and expressing knowledge) is fundamental in universities. This type of diversity keeps our democracy alive. Diversity gives rise to new knowledge and new ways of thinking, a key function of a university. Thus, we believe that diversity is fundamental to the university and to our School.
  
-<Aswad.Allen@ucdenver.edu> 303- 315-0135+In partnership with SEHD faculty and the SEHD Diversity Committee, we strive to promote a climate of equity and enhance diversity and inclusiveness initiatives internally.

 +**Type O (Practicum & Internship Courses):** 
 +  - Under 30 SCH, course will be pro-rated based off 30 SCH. 
 + 
 +__For CPE (D2) Courses:__  CPE staff members initiate the course scheduling process in consultation with program faculty each termEach program is unique, but in general, CPE certificate programs are planned out a year at a time, with the specific course schedules (dates, meeting patterns, course locations) to be determined after instructors have been identified, at least two months before the course is scheduled to begin. CPE course schedules frequently do not align with campus term schedules. 
 + 
 +==== Room Requests ==== 
 + 
 +Room requests for courses must be given to the Course Coordinator at the time the schedule is submitted **6 months prior**  to the start of the semester.  The Course Coordinator will do their best to accommodate requests. All non-course room requests (for meetings, workgroupsetc.) should be requested through the EMS Web App [[https://schedule.ucdenver.edu/emswebapp/Default.aspx|https://schedule.ucdenver.edu/emswebapp/Default.aspx]]. 
 + 
 +==== Changes to Schedule After Registration Has Begun ==== 
 + 
 +Once students have registered for classeschanges to the schedule can negatively impact a student’s schedule and cause frustration. Any change to the schedule once students are enrolled requires the course to be cancelled, and rebuilt with the new timeday, dates or format. Students are automatically dropped when a course is cancelled and students will need re-register in the new sectionTherefore, changes to the schedule can only be made if approved by the Associate Dean overseeing the program area. 
 + 
 +==== Wait Lists ==== 
 + 
 +Many courses fill up quickly, students are encouraged to sign up for waitlists during registration when they find a course is full. Faculty are encouraged to allow waitlisted students to attend class until waitlists are dropped at midnight on the Monday of the second week of classes. This practice allows students who get enrolled from the waitlist to be in sync with the class. Consult the Academic Calendar for published deadlines each term. Note: CPE does not set up wait lists for most CPE courses, instead maintaining contact with CPE student groups and making adjustments to course caps as appropriate.

 ==== Compensation ==== ==== Compensation ====
  
-Compensation would ordinarily only be for extraordinary work involving a comprehensive certificate, endorsement or degree program that involves an on-going continuing partnership. Also, coordination needs may be greater at the beginning of a partnership than in subsequent years. In order to have some rational basis for compensation, it seems that it must be related to time spent. Faculty is generally expected to be on campus from mid-August until the end of May. Calculating that as a work year of 185 days would equate to about a half-percent of salary for every full day spent coordinating a partnership above and beyond full year workload expectations. Utilizing this formula, ten additional days of work (two full weeks) would equate to an additional 5% of compensation. Following are some examples of compensation level**s** based on the time spent to carry out one or more of the coordination roles listed above, remembering that all coordination must be paid out of available CPE //program// funds and that the Dean must approve any extra compensation.+Compensation would ordinarily only be for extraordinary work involving a comprehensive certificate, endorsement or degree program that involves an on-going continuing partnership.

 +  * **Example One**  – One or more of the above duties, but not enough extra time that the coordination is significantly impacting more than 100 percent of the yearly expectations for faculty workload. In this case the partnership coordination should be listed as part of the faculty member’s professional plan for service but additional compensation should not be involved. 
 +  * **Example Two**  – One or more of the above duties that will result in an impact to time and responsibility that will significantly exceed 100 percent of expected yearly workload. Compensated coordination would only be available for certificate, endorsement, degree or other programs that include a series of courses and semesters. Oftentimes this work will be carried out in the summer. Each additional full day of work planned for the partnership should result in a half-percent of additional compensation. For example, if the partnership will likely require six full days, or twelve half-days, the faculty member would earn an additional 3%, eight days 4%, etc. 
 +  * **Example Three**  – Where most of the above duties fall upon a faculty member and he or she is primarily responsible for a large program, one with a large number of participants**, **cohorts, courses or instructors, then significant impact would be anticipated. Program coordination might result in up to two additional weeks of work (or 80 hours) within each of the fall and spring semesters resulting in additional compensation of 5% for each semester and a full month of additional work in the summer that would result in another 10%. At this level, the faculty member could choose to buy out an in-load course to earn the 20% without working additional time or keep their regular course load and be compensated for the additional work. 
 +Although it is helpful to plan and articulate the work of faculty as coordinator of CPE programs in terms of number of days, in reality this coordination is not neat and clean. Problems arise that need immediate attention and result in focused minutes or hours of emailing and/or phone calling, all of which occur during the “regular” work day in order to solve or follow up on a problem. So while some of the work is definitely scheduled as half day or whole day on one’s work calendar, other responsibilities are attended to on top of an already full schedule during the academic year. It is best to utilize the number of days anticipated for coordination as a basis for planning. Faculty will not be expected to log hours or days spent on coordination.

-===== Course Schedule Submission Deadlines =====+All SEHD programs have identified key assessments (sometimes called performance-based assessments, PBAs) and scoring rubrics that provide evidence of valued student learning objectives as part of course offerings and clinical experiences. Program faculty members are responsible for using their programs’ key assessments and ensuring that adjunct faculty members do as well. Key program assessments are managed through the SEHD Assessment management system, LiveText by Waternark. Faculty can link the assessment tasks and scoring rubrics for their key assessments to their Canvas course shells so that student results are automatically entered into the SEHD Assessment management system. Program faculty are expected to regularly review the key program-level assessments and rubrics to ensure they are current and appropriate. The Office of Assessment and Program Improvement provides training, support videos and job aides to assist faculty with the development, scoring and administration of key program assessments as needed and upon request. The Assessment Office also administers LiveText by Watermark accounts for faculty and students.
  
-Main campus course scheduling is managed by the Course Coordinator in Academic Services, and off-campus (extended studies) course scheduling is managed by CPE staff.

-For CPE Courses: CPE staff members initiate the course scheduling process in consultation with program faculty each term. Each program is unique, but in general, CPE certificate programs are planned out a year at a time, with the specific course schedules (dates, meeting patterns, course locations) to be determined after instructors have been identified, at least two months before the course is scheduled to begin. CPE course schedules frequently do not align with campus term schedules. +
- +
-==== Room Requests ==== +
- +
-Room requests for courses must be given to the Course Coordinator at the time the schedule is submitted **6 months prior** to the start of the semester. The Course Coordinator will do his/her best to accommodate requests. All non-course room requests (for meetings, workgroups, etc.) should be emailed to <SEHDHELP@UCDENVER.EDU> with the following information: Date, start and end time, number of attendees, any specific equipment needs. University policy prohibits main campus courses from meeting at faculty homes. +
-==== Changes to Schedule After Registration Has Begun ==== +
- +
-Once students have begun to register for classes, changes to the schedule can negatively impact a student’s schedule and cause frustration. Therefore, changes to the schedule can only be made if EVERY student in the course agrees to the time and/or day change. +
- +
-==== Wait Lists ==== +
- +
-Because many courses fill quickly, students are encouraged to sign up for wait lists during registration when they find a course is full. Faculty are encouraged to allow waitlisted students to attend class until waitlists are dropped at midnight on the Monday of the second week of classes. This practice allows students who get enrolled from the waitlist to be in sync with the class. Consult the [[http://www.ucdenver.edu/academics/colleges/CLAS/current-students/BachelorsStudents/academic-resources/Pages/academic-calendar.aspx|Academic Calendar]] for published deadlines each term. Note: CPE does not set up wait lists for most CPE courses, instead maintaining contact with CPE student groups and making adjustments to course caps as appropriate. +
- +
-====== Assessments and Surveys: Data Collection and Reporting ====== +
- +
-All programs have identified key common assessments (or performance-based assessments, PBA) that reflect important student learning in their courses. The Office of Accreditation and Program Effectiveness provides student learning results on these PBAs to various audiences and upon request. Please contact Carolyn Haug and/or Tony Romero to obtain student learning summary data and for general faculty LiveText support. +
- +
-The Office provides all SEHD students (and CLAS students with licensure subplans) with Livetext accounts. For initial licensure students, including the BA students, LiveText licenses will be provided in the semester they enroll in UEDU 4/5020. Students are now paying each semester for LiveText licenses through an increase to the SEHD Student Assessment Fee, which enables SEHD to provide licenses to students directly. This means that students no longer need to purchase LiveText accounts on their own. Each semester, students needing licenses will receive the ability to activate their license after the census date. +
- +
-Also new is that Canvas has been fully integrated with LiveText. This means you can link to your LiveText rubrics directly from your Canvas shell, students can submit assignments in one place, you can grade them in one place, and grades will appear in both LiveText and Canvas. This is easy to set up and we have a support material to show you how. Faculty who used this process last year and report that it works very well. Along with this, the University Office of Information and Technology has integrating LiveText with CU-SIS, which means that all course enrollment changes and updates will appear in LiveText within 1-2 days of when they appear in CU-SIS. For example, when a student adds a course, that change will also be reflected in LiveText very quickly. This will assist with keeping LiveText as up-to-date as Canvas. +
- +
-To honor this increase in the fees of all our students, it is important that all faculty use LiveText for PBAs. (As a reminder, PBAs are program-agreed-on common assessments used to measure key student learning outcomes and PBAs are embedded in specific courses.) Students will expect to be able to submit assignments into LiveText using Canvas and will expect to see this used in their courses. This means that faculty will need to make the necessary links for this to happen. The office has prepared short video clips ([[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f14tS6IVFvk&feature=youtu.be|https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f14tS6IVFvk&feature=youtu.be]]) and a document with screen shots ([[http://sehd.ucdenver.edu/assessment/files/2015/08/Canvas-to-LiveText-SSO-and-Grade-Return-CU-Denver.pdf|http://sehd.ucdenver.edu/assessment/files/2015/08/Canvas-to-LiveText-SSO-and-Grade-Return-CU-Denver.pdf]]) to show you how to do this. +
- +
-For purposes of the Higher Learning Commission (HLC), Carolyn Haug and Tony Romero support program faculty by providing in the LiveText Exhibit Center the critical data from PBAs associated with each program. Carolyn Haug serves as the liaison to the University Assessment Office and sits on the campus Assessment Committee. Please contact Carolyn if you have questions or suggestions for the University Assessment Committee. +
- +
-To assess student dispositions and the SEHD impact on change with regard to this, Carolyn Haug and Tony Romero administer the Intercultural Development Inventory (IDI) to all students upon entry and exit from their programs. In conjunction with Academic Services, the Office uses new student orientation meetings and communications to ensure compliance with the entry IDI. Program faculty are notified of non-completers about two weeks into the semester. Upon program completion, the IDI post-test appears on the graduation checklist and Academic Services reminds students they must take it before their completion is transcribed by the Registrar’s Office. +
- +
-The Accreditation and Program Effectiveness office administer and maintain ongoing SEHD internal surveys, including the student exit and follow-up surveys for each program. Exit surveys are administered each semester (fall, spring and summer) and follow-up surveys are administered annually for some programs and in multi-year cycles for others. Additionally, pre-program surveys are administered to initial licensure students. Results are available in the LiveText Exhibit Center. Carolyn is the SEHD representative on the University Survey Working Group. Please contact Carolyn or the Assessment Coordinator with questions about the existing SEHD or University surveys, or ideas for additional surveys. //(New University policy requiring Sales Force use for alumni surveys may affect the point of contact, but continue to contact Carolyn or Tony until further notice.)// +
- +
-A wide variety of program data is provided to program faculty and staff on a regular schedule, including PBA results, Place/Praxis results, application/admission/matriculation data, enrollment trend data, student exit and graduate survey data, IDI data, client satisfaction data, demographics of professional development schools, and graduate placement and persistence data; graduate performance data will be provided as well when they are available from the state (availability date is TBD). The delivery mechanism for these data is the LiveText Exhibit Center, although there will be a gradual transition to a new dashboard platform that could be introduced this academic year. Additionally, data discussions are part of regular scheduling for the Program Leaders meetings. +
- +
-====== Internal Data Requests ====== +
- +
-If faculty or staff needs data for a report or general operating decisions, please contact Carolyn Haug. She may already have the information you are seeking and, if not, she is likely to know who to contact in various other campus offices (such as campus Institutional Research or the Registrar’s Office) to ask for assistance. Be prepared to discuss the purpose, specific data elements, timeframe, and reporting format with Office staff so that the resulting data fit your need. Whenever possible, allow sufficient lead time, particularly with large requests.+
