In addition to assisting students with placements tests, Math Jam has also had a dramatic impact on persistence and retention. Evaluation tools are designed to measure the effectiveness of Math Jam in meeting these goals. This is done by conducting direct assessment of student learning (pre- and post- math tests), a study of student “jump” rates whereby, students “test out” of a math level and examination of math jam participant retention and success in subsequent courses.

past decade, dashboards have delivereda number of benefits to universities in the United States and beyond, including the abilityto efficiently analyze key performance metrics and financial information. Dashboards areparticularly useful because of their ability to summarize massive amounts of datavisually.In the early 2000’s, Richland College implemented a spreadsheet style executivedashboard for assessing key performance metrics. Dashboard metrics, as shown in Table1, included meeting community education needs, student success, employee success,implementation of technology for learning/operations, and improving the effectiveness ofcollege functions9. As a very basic design, this dashboard scores five KPI’s on a scale of1 to 10, thus allowing

. From the National Assessment GoverningBoard (NAGB), engineering literacy is “the ability to solve problems and accomplish goals byapplying the engineering design process.”1 Or, from John Heywood, it “requires that weunderstand how individual’s [sic], organizations and society interact with technology, and thisrequires an appreciation of the values we bring to that understanding.”2 These definitions worktogether to provide a fuller notion of engineering literacy, as recognizing the fact of it as well aswhy it is necessary give us reason and means to becoming engineering literate. Adapting from definitions of technological literacy, from Gramire and Pearson,engineering literacy is, at its core, a broad appreciation of what engineering is

conversation around possible definitions of quality. To begin our discussion of quality, wereturn to Kolbe and Burnett’s (1991) assertion that “Interjudge reliability is often perceived asthe standard measure of research quality” (p. 248). Though quality is defined in diverse waysthroughout theoretical and methodological literature, we believe this assertion does not considervarious facets of quality, which can be conflated with rigor (Moss et al., 2009). FollowingFloden (as quoted in Moss et al., 2009), we assert that: A judgment of quality, for example, may include assessing whether or not a study addresses a question of broad interest and social significance. A study might be rigorous in the sense that it uses a design that guards
