Self-Study Format


Accreditation 101 - Insight into your self-study process. 

 

November 7, 2008

Presented by Jeremy Nicholson

Although writing the self-study document has not begun, Jeremy Nicholson has already started thinking about the format for Ozarka's document.

 

 

 

 

Some of the formatting aesthetics the steering committee needs to think about include:

  • General
  • Colors
  • Images
  • Fonts/Spacing
  • Charts /Graphs

Suggestions for format along with links to examples that were presented:

 

Cover -all three Ozarka location images; include students; black or white or color; suggestion as we have input; 2 or 3 or 4 scenarios to choose from; 3 different locations on bottom, students on top;

 

Foreword/Table of Contents/Appendices -how many do we need to print? Color on every page. One per employee, foundation, board, etc. 150-160; cost depends on how we use color; how much emphasis will be on the cross cutting themes (Wyoming example). Name of chapter in the running head rather than the name of the college.nov 7

 

Sections/Section Titles - one picture-an example for each criterion; central Wyoming and Cochise  replace. the organization, with the name of the school

Paragraphing/ Bullets/General Graphics and Images - name of college on one page/ name of section of other page; A running head with criterion; mission statement on one side, criterion on the other.
