GUIDED PATHWAYS ESSENTIAL PRACTICES: SCALE OF ADOPTION SELF-ASSESSMENT

Institution Name: _______________________________ Date: ___________________ This tool is designed to help your college assess how far along you are toward adopting essential guided pathways practices at scale. The essential practices listed are examined in CCRC’s recently published book, Redesigning America's Community Colleges: A Clearer Path to Student Success, by Thomas Bailey, Shanna Smith Jaggars, and Davis Jenkins (Harvard University Press, 2015). For each of the guided pathways essential practices listed in the first column, convene faculty, student services staff, and administrators from across divisions at your college to discuss the extent to which the practice is currently implemented for degree-seeking students at your college. In the second column, indicate the extent to which the practice has been adopted at your college using the following scale:

Scale of Adoption Definition Not following College is currently not following or planning to follow this practice Not systematic Practice is incomplete, inconsistent, informal, and/or optional Planning to scale College is planning to implement the practice at scale Scaling in progress Implementation of the practice is in progress for all students At scale Practice is implemented at scale—that is, for all degree-seeking students

In column three, list the steps your college needs to take to implement the given practice at scale. This will help you develop a plan and prioritize next steps. For more information, contact Davis Jenkins, CCRC Senior Research Associate, at [email protected].
