  • This Is for Placement Only
    Senate Education Committee March 10, 2020 Blake Flanders, Ph.D. President & CEO, Kansas Board of Regents Chair Baumgardner and Members of the Committee, you had several questions during my testimony presented yesterday on HB 2515, the Promise Scholarship Program, and I provide additional clarification below. Qualifying Institutions Senator Rucker asked for clarification on which institutions would qualify to participate in the program. Any of the 26 public community and technical colleges would qualify, as would those Kansas private independent institutions that offer certificate or associate degree programs. Allen Community College Seward County Community College Barton Community College Flint Hills Technical College Butler Community College Manhattan Area Technical College Cloud County Community College North Central Kansas Technical College Coffeyville Community College Northwest Kansas Technical College Colby Community College Salina Area Technical College Cowley Community College Washburn Institute of Technology Dodge City Community College WSU Campus of Applied Sciences and Fort Scott Community College Technology Garden City Community College Baker University Highland Community College Barclay College Hutchinson Community College Central Christian College of Kansas Independence Community College Donnelly College Johnson County Community College Hesston College Kansas City Kansas Community College Manhattan Christian College Labette Community College MidAmerica Nazarene University Neosho County Community College Ottawa University Pratt Community College Southwestern College Repayment of Scholarships Senator Sykes had a question on the extent to which persons who received awards through our service scholarship programs went into repayment status or who elected to repay the award, rather than meet the service requirements. A variety of circumstances can influence why someone who has entered into a service scholarship agreement might elect to pay the indebtedness in lieu of meeting the service obligation.

  • An Exploration of the Differences in Characteristics Between Passing and Non- Passing Developmental English Students from a Kansas Community College
    An Exploration of the Differences in Characteristics between Passing and Non- Passing Developmental English Students from a Kansas Community College Noreen L. Templin B.B.A., Wichita State University, 1998 M.A., Wichita State University, 2000 Submitted to the Graduate Department and Faculty of the School of Education of Baker University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Education in Educational Leadership Date Defended: April 16, 2018 Copyright 2018 by Noreen L. Templin Abstract Some students come to community colleges when they are underprepared for college-level work and must enroll in developmental education courses. The developmental English course at a Kansas community college was a co-requisite of the college-level English Composition I (EG101) course. This combined program of a developmental course paired with a college-level course is known as the Accelerated Learning Program (ALP). Almost 70% of English developmental students passed EG101 in the ALP model during the Fall 2016 and Spring 2017 academic year. This study focused on the students enrolled in the first complete academic year of full-scale ALP implementation at a Kansas community college. The purpose of this study was to explore the differences in characteristics of these community college students who successfully passed EG101 compared to those students who did not pass EG101. A quantitative research method was utilized in this study using a descriptive research design. The study of students in P101 (students who passed) and NP101 (students who did not pass) included personal characteristics of sex, age, ethnicity, and residency. The academic characteristics were current credit hours taken in the same semester and including ALP, previous credit hours completed before the semester of ALP, degree declared, and co-enrollment in a remedial reading course with ALP.
