Our ongoing formative assessment of STP team members’ efforts highlights the importance of recognizing and understanding the nuances involved in systems change. Acknowledging the progression inherent in the change process is essential, as it is the precursor for improving student outcomes. Changing systems is a complex endeavor to both facilitate and evaluate. In this data note, we use a framework proposed by Latham (2014) to evaluate the STP initiative and provide insights into the structural revisions in our STEM transfer partnerships to date and how they are tied to improved transfer pathways.  \nINTRODUCTION  \nThe STEM Transfer Partnership (STP) initiative seeks to create systemic change within STEM degree pathways in Washington through collaboration between teams of faculty and staff from nine pairs of two-year and four-year institutions across the state. These teams are supported by Community College Research Initiatives (CCRI) to work together to improve STEM transfer processes by serving as institutional context experts and determining the focus of their efforts (see Cate et al., 2022 for more details) . STP teams have worked within institutional pairs for eighteen months to understand and dismantle obstacles to low-income STEM transfer students’ bachelor’s degree completion. Each team’s unique context has led to different areas of focus and routes toward their goals. Recognizing the importance of understanding the process of creating and implementing change (Century & Cassata, 2016), we share a snapshot of STP progress to capture the initial, essential advancements across teams. This brief  \ndelves into the factors propelling their change and also highlights the tangible strides made by STP teams in their pursuit of fostering positive transformations.  \nFRAMEWORK TO EVALUATE LONG-TERM SYSTEMS CHANGE  \nLatham’s evaluation method, designed to address systems change within human service initiatives to enhance client outcomes (Latham, 2014), serves asa valuable framework for analyzing the initial stages of our STP outcomes. The framework highlights the importance of collaboration to create systems change, by removing structural barriers and adding conducive structures to improve pathways. In the framework, systems change takes place in two realms:  \npathways and structural changes. Pathways are interorganizational arrangements that provide services and programs to support participants’ progress to achieve their desired outcomes. Structures create the context in which pathways function, through policies,  \n[uw. edu/cc ri](uw. edu/cc ri) 1  \nSTEM TRANSFER PARTNERSHIP SERIES | Progress in Improving STEM Transfer Partnerships Pathways  \npractices, regulations, resource allocations, culture, and knowledge (Latham, 2014) . The structural changes can remove barriers and create opportunities to develop more effective pathways that lead to improved individual outcomes, and in our case, transfer student outcomes (Fig. 1) . Ultimately, systems change “is about changing the structures that shape our ability to improve pathways”(Latham, 2014, p. 13) .  \nAssessing the impact of STP activities on pathways is crucial to evaluating the teams’ efforts. The data in this brief elucidates the variety of changes created by teams of faculty and staff for their unique contexts, which are the essential antecedents to improved transfer student outcomes at their institutions. We also share input from team members about the STP collaborative process and their experiences. Most teams maintain that it is too early to quantify changes in student outco","cbCaifSwFLLm8Wa1","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaifSwFLLm8Wa1","pdf",445918,"English","# Introduction\n# Framework to Evaluate Long-Term Systems Change\n# Program Background and Data Sources","[{\"question\":\"What is the goal of the STEM Transfer Partnership (STP) initiative?\",\"answer\":\"STP aims to enhance low-income transfer student outcomes by modifying transfer processes across two-year and four-year institutions and improving STEM degree pathways through institutional collaboration.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the report evaluate systems change and its effects on transfer pathways?\",\"answer\":\"The note applies a Latham (2014) evaluation framework that examines systems change across two realms: pathways and structural changes, linking structural revisions to improved transfer pathways and outcomes.\"},{\"question\":\"What data sources support the findings in this data note?\",\"answer\":\"The brief uses coaching meeting notes and documents, along with notes and transcripts from the fourth convening where teams reviewed past data, accomplishments, and progress toward improved outcomes for low-income transfer students.\"}]","COMMUNITY COLLEGE RESEARCH INITIATIVES - STEM TRANSFER PARTNERSHIP SERIES - Progress in Improving STEM Transfer Partnerships Pathways - Data Note 4 - February 2024 | PDF",1792049092]
