The Way We Provide Education Is Changing: On-line learning

How Were We Providing Higher Education in 2000

Share of students participating in On-line Education (2002)

At least one online course: 10%

Full time in Online Courses: 2%

How Are We Providing Higher Education Today Share of students participating in On-line Education (2013)

At least one online course: 27%

Full time in Online Courses: 13%

The Way We Provide Education Is Changing: Competency Based Learning

How Were We Providing Higher Education in 2000 The Novelty of Competency Based Institutions

Two “Known” Entities:

– WGU (1,200 students)

– Alverno College (2,500 students)

How Are We Providing Higher Education Today The Competency Wave

WGU having grown to 48,000 students

23 members of the Competency-Based Education Network

The Biggies: Alverno, Brandman, Capella, College for America (Southern New Hampshire), Community Colleges of Spokane, Northern Arizona University, University of Wisconsin, Western Governors University

Combined enrollments: more than 100,000 in whole; millions in part

Prior Learning Assessment (PLA): Becoming Ubiquitous (except where it is not)

The Way We Provide Education Is Changing The innovation wave

New providers of degrees

The expansion of the for-profit sector

The expansion of most institutions on-line New providers of courses & services

Courses only – MOOCS, Straighter Line, DreamDegree, Pearsons, Hobsons, etc.

Support services only – Insidetrack, Kahn Academy, Smarthinking, etc.

Tweener providers -- Boot Camps, App Academy

An Abundance of credentials – degrees, certificates, badges, etc.

The Question -- Chaos or Creative Engagement and Progress

Competency is the new coin of the realm. Competency Assessment: for the Student

Transfer and Articulation - Trusting the community (Passport)

Demonstrated college level learning outside the Academy

Prior Leaning Assessment – PLA

CLEP, testing out, etc. Competency Assessment: for the Institution (Educational Improvement & Credibility)

Predictive Analytics/MLDE

Degree Qualifications Profiles

Tuning

Competency Based Education As a New Delivery Model

Direct Assessment Institutions

CBE Straight Up




Competency is the new coin of the realm.

Assessment of student learning finally has legs

Student Learning – the new name of the game

Why now

Readiness has “evolved”

“Evidence based practice” has caught on in public policy

Analytics can support evidence based practice (CLA, CAAP, ETS Proficiency Profile, AHELO, Work-keys, PLA, etc.)

Angst

Whopping big change – moving to external validity

Still sorting out

Teacher’s role

Institution’s role

Governing board’s role

Government’s role

Productivity as part of the Quality Dimension

The Importance of These Statistics To Idaho Today and Tomorrow

Funding story is a mixed bag with respect to higher education State Funding is average:

@ $6,434, it is $118 (2%) below the national average

State Tax Effort: 7.2% Effective Tax Rate Slightly below national 7.6%

State Share of Tax Effort to Higher Education: 7.3% Well above the national average of 5.8%

4th highest in the WICHE region (trailing only New Mexico, Wyoming, and Utah)

The Importance of These Statistics To Idaho Today and Tomorrow

But Overall Funding is another story: @ $10,348, it is $$1,981 (16%) below the national average

How Is That Possible: – Tuition is comparatively high or low, depending:

» @ $3,749 for 2 year institutions • It is 7% above the WICHE average • And 9% above the National average

» @ $6,817 for 4 year institutions • It is 13% below the WICHE average • And 28% below the National average

– Financial Aid: » Modest in total: $5 million in 2013-14 » Very Modest for needy students: $1.4 million in 2013-14 (4th lowest in the country

at that time)

Net effect: Share of income required has increased appreciable over last decade. From 2.7% to 6.5% in community colleges From 6.9% to 12.% in universities


Why a new normal & not return to the old normal Can’t afford the old normal

Hyper-inflationary model is unsustainable (unaffordable)

What the new normal looks like

Performance funding is the wave in most states – not Idaho

But not the only game in town

Affordability issues driving focus on costs & price Tuition Policy & Financial Aid sharing the stage

Generally lacking true integration of finance policies – Appropriations, Tuition Policy, and Financial Aid in Sync

Speaks to the wisdom of the Governor’s Request

Summing it all up

The times they are a changing

The way we provide education is changing


The way we assess the quality of our enterprise is changing

The way we finance the enterprise is changing

Summing it all up

What this has wrought for Idaho Preparation: from D+ to C

Participation: from D to

C- for traditional students

B for older students

Affordability:

from B- to C

Completion:

from C to D

Quality/Learning: from Incomplete to

B+ on productivity

Incomplete on student learning outcomes

Summing it all up

Where to from here for Idaho

If you’re comfortable with a C+ average, stay the course

If you want something more, change is the logical option

Albert Einstein’s

Alleged Definition of Insanity

“Doing the same thing over and over again, and expecting a different result ”

I encourage sanity in Idaho higher education public policy
