AAQEP Accreditation 2022
Standard 2 Aspect B
Standard 2b - Evidence shows that program alumni, engage in culturally responsive educational practices with diverse learners and do so in diverse cultural and socioeconomic community contexts
The Bilingual Authorization Program (BAP) selected three different measures to examine how program alumni engage in culturally responsive educational practices with diverse learners. The first measure comes from the BAP completer survey, the second measure comes from the BAP employer survey (Google form), and the third comes from the BAP alumni (1+ years) survey (Google form). Data collection for the latter two will begin during the 2021-2022 academic year, hence, there is no data to display for this report.
Data Sources & Analysis
Data Source 1
BAP Completer Survey
Description of Data Source:
The first measure for Standard 2B comes from the BAP completer survey completed by
21 graduates for the spring 2021 term. The purpose for this survey is to understand
graduates' experiences in the BAP and Multiple Subject credential program as well
as employment outcomes. Moving forward, data from this survey will be analyzed and
discussed in the program advisory committee meetings with the purpose of making the
necessary changes to improve the program and to better serve our students and the
interests of stakeholders, such as district partners.
Only one (1) year of completer data is available because this is the first time a completer survey was created and disseminated among program graduates. Prior to the new coordinator’s leadership, the BAP was a very small program and no completer data was collected.
Perspective Captured from Data Source: Program Completer
Rationale for using Data Source:
The survey provides information about the program from the perspective of program
completers who are now in the teaching profession.
Specific Elements of Data Source:
Item 19: The BAP courses helped me develop a culturally responsive practice, including
intersectionality of race, ethnicity, class, gender identity and expression, sexual
identity, and the impact of language acquisition and literacy development on learning
Definition of Success for Each Element:
Completers are asked to rate the extent to which they agree with each statement on
a 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree) point Likert scale, with the programmatic
goal being a score of 4.
Displays of Analyzed Data:
Link to Full Dataset: BAP completer raw data
Interpretation of Data:
Responses indicate that 85.8% agreed or strongly agreed, and 14.3% were neutral on
this statement. The respondents that were neutral on this statement indicate that
the program courses need to be reviewed to ensure that topics such as race, class,
gender, etc. and culturally responsive practices need to be a central focus of all
three (3) courses. With the official implementation of the new Spanish BAP courses
in the Fall of 2021 as well as the ongoing restructuring of the Hmong pathway courses,
ensuring alignment to state and AAQEP standards and complimentary sequencing of courses
will be a priority workshopping discussion topic in program advisory committees during
the 2021-2022 academic year and every year thereafter.
Data Source 2
Planned BAP Employer Survey
Description of Data Source:
The BAP employer survey was created by the program coordinator in Spring 2021 to align with CCTC and AAQEP
standards. Prior to this point, the BAP program did not have an employer survey. Although
the survey was not administered to employers of program completers, data collection
will begin during the 2021-2022 academic year, hence, there is no data to display
for this report.
The survey includes both demographic information about the school and item that invite responders to rate the extent to which they on a scale of 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree).
Perspective Captured from Data Source: Employer
Rationale for using Data Source:
As a program, we understand the need to learn the perspectives of employers of our
completers about how well our program prepared them to be bilingual educators.
Specific Elements of Data Source:
Survey Item 9:
- Our district bilingual/dual immersion teachers engage in culturally responsive educational practices with diverse learners and do so in diverse cultural and socioeconomic community contexts
Definition of Success for Each Element:
The programmatic goal for survey responses will be 80% agreement with each statement.
Plans for Collection & Analysis of Data:
Because this is a planned data source, there is no data to display. The survey will
be reviewed and revised by the BAP advisory committee during the 2021-2022 academic
year. Once completed, the survey will be disseminated among BAP district partners
in the spring semester. Data will be used for continuous program improvement.
Data Source 3
Planned BAP Completer (1+ years) Survey
Description of Data Source:
The BAP Completer (1+ years) Survey was created by the program coordinator in Spring 2021 to align with CCTC and AAQEP
standards. Prior to this point, the BAP program did not have a method of gathering
information from our completers once they are in the field about how well the program
prepared them. Although the survey was not administered to employers of program completers,
data collection will begin during the 2021-2022 academic year, hence, there is no
data to display for this report.
The survey will include both demographic information about the school and item that invite responders to rate the extent to which they on a scale of 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree).
Perspective Captured from Data Source: Completers
Rationale for using Data Source:
As a program, we understand the need to learn the perspectives of our completers about
how well the program prepared them to be bilingual educators.
Specific Elements of Data Source:
Survey Item 10:
- As a classroom teacher, I engage in culturally responsive educational practices with diverse learners and do so in diverse cultural and socioeconomic community contexts
Definition of Success for Each Element:
The programmatic goal for survey responses will be 80% agreement with each statement.
Plans for Collection & Analysis of Data:
Because this is a planned data source, there is no data to display. The survey will
be reviewed and revised by the BAP advisory committee during the 2021-2022 academic
year. Once completed, the survey will be disseminated among BAP district partners
in the spring semester. Data will be used for continuous program improvement.
