Illinois Programs of Study Overview:

The state of Illinois’ Programs of Study initiative supports the development, implementation and evaluation of academic and career-technical curriculum extending from the secondary to the postsecondary level, including the development of evidence-based resource materials, an information-rich website, and professional development in the form of Webinars and workshops. These efforts extend The Office of Community College Research & Leadership’s (OCCRL) longstanding commitment to use research and development expertise to improve policy and practice that facilitates student transition to college. OCCRL has provided research and technical assistance to state education agencies in Illinois and other states since 1989.

 

Goals:

· Develop and disseminate a framework, design elements, and criteria for implementation and evaluation of Programs of Study, including the facilitation of Programs of Study state leadership, steering committees, and workgroups.
· Provide evaluation expertise and lead the implementation of a statewide evaluation system.
· Provide professional development that supports Programs of Study implementation statewide.

 

Guiding Principles:

1. Leadership, Organization and Support: Programs of Study are developed, supported, and led with guidance from collaborative partners.

2. Access, Equity and Opportunity: Each and every student has access to equitable educational opportunities and services that enable their success.

3. Alignment and Transition: Education and training providers, with input from business and industry, enhance alignment that facilitates student preparation and transition through the educational pipeline.

4. Enhanced Curriculum & Instruction: Curriculum and pedagogy involve rigorous and relevant instruction that enhances learning and enables students to attain academic and technical standards and credentials.

5. Professional Preparation and Development: Comprehensive and continuous professional development that impacts teaching and learning is delivered to enhance the recruitment, preparation and retention of qualified instructional and administrative staff.

6. Program Improvement: Data are collected, shared, and utilized to improve outcomes and demonstrate accountability.
