quality enhancement plan (Q.E.P.)
Quality Enhancement Plan
The Alabama State University (ASU) Quality Enhancement Plan (QEP) focuses on enhancing student success through intensive learning experiences in the first-year experience in the Orientation 100, English 130, English 131, and English 132 courses. ASU students should have the Hornet Experience with a comprehensive approach of high-impact practices. The curriculum infuses academic and social interaction in the areas of information literacy, holistic engagement, skill development, reflective writing, pride, career identification, and self-awareness that promotes student success and goal attainment in the first year. The design for the QEP evolved from (a) the QEP Exploratory Team and the University administration’s review of data from the institution’s last QEP and (b) posing the question, “What is student success for ASU’s first-year students?”
THE MISSION
The mission of ASU’s QEP directly aligns with the University’s Mission by “fostering critical thought and developing professional competence” for its students. Furthermore, the targeted QEP outcomes also align with the University’s strategic plan by providing students a “holistic educational experience” that ultimately enhances their overall educational involvement.
