Description of the effective practice: The Student Development Transcript documents leadership activities; professional or educational development activities; honors, awards, and recognition; and participation in recognized organizations, activities, or programs. In order to qualify for the transcript, activities must be directly related to Lincoln Land Community College and validated by the appropriate advisor or sponsor. Students can request a transcript through the Student Life Office How does this practice achieve sustainability? The program is in its second year of operation. All requested records are kept on file in the Student Life Office for a minimum of ten years. The institution is currently investigating technologies that would link the Student Development Transcript with the Academic Transcript thus providing more sustainability and efficiency. What are the results/measurable outcomes? Student Development Transcripts have been requested by students and the Student Life Office continues to receive inquiries regarding the program.

Direct Connection to Policy Area 5 of The Illinois Commitment Student E-portfolio Initiative Illinois Eastern - Wabash Valley What issue or need is addressed by the effective practice? Stakeholders of all education institutions are demanding accountability more so than ever, and this e-portfolio initiative gives the institution and the employer first-hand data that they can use to evaluate the skills, knowledge, and abilities of graduates as they relate, not only to potential job performance, but also to meeting established outcomes set forth within the college program. Description of the effective practice: Wabash Valley College developed an e-portfolio initiative whereby students within each of the college’s Career and Technical Programs are required to produce an interactive electronic portfolio (e-portfolio). The purpose of this initiative is to authenticate necessary skills within specified WVC educational programs for potential employers and to provide faculty program assessment measures grounded in approved program outcomes. How does this practice achieve sustainability? This program has been developed as a core educational offering that will require students to set forth and attain measurable goals as they pursue their education. An assumption to be tested in fiscal year 2007 is that the program will aid in completer percentages and placement. The survey population for this sampling plan came from the Advisory Council at Wabash Valley College. This is a group of 120 individuals that represent companies throughout our district. These individuals hold a wide range of positions (from administrative to laborer) giving the council balance and a blended prospective of skills needed for employees within a given field. These members of the advisory council regularly hire qualified employees in skilled positions. Their knowledge of the industry and of the necessary skills that an applicant within that specific industry will need is essential in developing a model portfolio for each of the 10 Career and Technical Programs that we have on our campus. Each of the Career and Technical Programs has a 12-member advisory council that meets 2 times a year. It is during the spring meeting of the advisory councils that they were surveyed to gain feedback on necessary skills and attainment of appropriate skill levels within each discipline.

It is during the spring meeting of the advisory councils that they were surveyed to gain feedback on necessary skills and attainment of appropriate skill levels within each discipline. Data from the survey instrument used in the e-portfolio study showed that students within this program are able to demonstrate their skill level more aptly through the e-portfolio process with 83% of those being surveyed indicating that the e-portfolio demonstrated to them how the student works and expresses themselves within the discipline and 78% of respondents indicating that they are better able to determine the skills of a job applicant through the use of an e-portfolio.
