Abstract | In recent years, an emphasis has been placed on making the transfer process more effective and ensuring that all students are able to complete a Bachelor's degree. The Transfer Education Commission of the National Center for Academic Achievement and Transfer (NCAAT), for example, has issued an agenda that identifies academic practices and policy decisions that should be addressed in articulation efforts between two and four-year institutions to improve transfer success. The NCAAT agenda consists of the following nine key points: (1) establish a firm institutional commitment to transfer; (2) enrich the connection between teaching and transfer; (3) revitalize academic relationships between institutions; (4) manage transfer more effectively; (5) identify and realize transfer goals; (6) inform students fully; (7) issue a clear public call for improved transfer; (8) acknowledge the importance of financial support; and (9) establish firm expectations of transfer success. Other researchers have identified emerging national trends in transfer models, including an awareness of the value of articulation partnerships, communication and collaboration between faculty from two-year and four-year colleges, academic partnerships, and an emphasis on math and science competencies. Strategies identified in the literature for improving transfer effectiveness include creating formal articulation agreements, providing active student support services, undertaking curriculum reform to strengthen the collegiate nature of community college curricula, and encouraging faculty collaboration with the articulation process. The NCAAT agenda is appended. (TGI) |
