OPE Topics A-Z Lessons Learned from FIPSE Projects II - September 1993 Winthrop College South Carolina Higher Education Assessment (SCHEA) Network Purpose The South Carolina Higher Education Assessment (SCHEA) Network, a 47-member statewide consortium of South Carolina colleges and universities, was established in response to state and accreditor assessment mandates. Its primary purpose was to develop collaborative relationships among a group of colleges and universities largely unprepared for the challenges of assessment. Network organizers assumed that properly coordinated consortial arrangements and centrally provided technical assistance would enable members to initiate quality assessment programs faster and less expensively than they could achieve on their own. Innovative Features At the outset, there were few promising signs for an effective assessment consortium, given the limited resources committed in South Carolina to assessment, the fierce rivalries among sister institutions, and an unwelcoming attitude on the part of most higher educators towards state assessment mandates.

These regions had the highest numbers of rural hospitals in the state with significant nursing and allied health vacancies; the highest numbers of persons living in poverty; the highest concentrations of minority citizens; the greatest high school drop out rates; and the lowest SAT scores in the state. Hospitals in these regions faced significant difficulties recruiting individuals from outside the community to their nursing staffs. Therefore, the "grow-your-own" potential of Project L.I.N.C. — coupled with the strong financial and academic support available to L.I.N.C. students — was very appealing. In addition, the numbers of minority health care workers in South Carolina lagged behind the overall minority population in the state. Only 8% of RNs were minority and 3% of physical therapists, when the minority population stood at 33%.

They utilize “props” or “manipulatives” to help children understand abstract concepts, solve problems, and develop critical thought processes. For example, they teach the concepts of numbers or of addition and subtraction by playing board games. As the children get older, the teachers use more sophisticated materials, such as science apparatus, cameras, or computers.

Section A-7 Commission on Higher Education Policies on Remedial Education in South Carolina Background Providing appropriate remedial education has been a long-time concern for policymakers in South Carolina. The Cutting Edge (Act 629) legislation, which became law in 1988 was in part an outgrowth of these concerns and represented a desire by the General Assembly to implement remedial education in an economically efficient and educationally effective manner. Under the authority granted to it by Act 629, Section 59-104-30, the Commission on Higher Education was specifically entrusted to develop provisions, procedures, and requirements for remedial (also known as "developmental") education programs in public higher education. The Commission on Higher Education has defined remedial education at four-year institutions as sub-collegiate level preparatory courses in English, mathematics, and reading, which are the only fields in which remedial coursework is offered. However, it recognized that in the two-year sector, remedial education also includes a sub-collegiate level of preparation in science disciplines. In 1989 the Commission adopted policy under the provisions of Act 629 that 1) required tests to determine entry skills of students whose past performance indicated they might have difficulty with college-level work; 2) required an identified minimum threshold of achievement to qualify for college degree credit courses; 3) prohibited remedial courses from being used at public institutions for awarding degree-applicable credit; 4) called for the establishment of agreements for the supplying of remedial coursework for students at four-year institutions by neighboring two-year public institutions where possible; and 5) required that each institution develop a tracking system for determining satisfactory progress in remedial studies. All institutions reported by 1991 that they were in compliance with the institution-specific provisions of these policies. Some of the institutions developed two-year/four-year agreements for serving four-year students with remedial needs.
