NEEDS ASSESSMENT CYCLE 2


A needs assessment cycle is a course program design around students identifying one's

creative skills for the purpose that supports sharing ideas and effectively learning together as a

team. To determine the assessment evaluation and the supporting program is to discuss risks,

deficiencies, and document any available program problems, to add resources that were

underlining issues. Therefore, the planning for the need assessment cycle will be within all areas

of needs of one’s college degree program that will be involved. The planning and efforts are

going to be with creating the creative incentive. The program is learners/students creative minds

talent on sharing to build focus. The need is to prioritize the planning, the documenting of each

learner/students strengths, and weaknesses. Then rewards that creative source of skilled talent is

assessing the estimating course areas to create a decision for the needs assessment cycle. The

emphasis is sharing while learning and reward to process changing the way college evaluate

student's performance. It starts at the after high school levels into the college undergrad programs

all the way to the grad programs. The creative incentives will be today active sharing values that

detail performance development. The performance source to grading critical thinking skill grades

for decision making, and decision. The learner/student performance potential interest the process

steps in college. Restructuring the exam world, the world of testing differently will introduce

fewer hours on core classes, and gain rewards and credits to graduate. A learner/student will not

be with the high school repeat learning. It is identifying the potential with performance decision

making to motivate useful minds. Also, getting into one's primary sooner with a different

assessment evaluation exam/test-taking behavior.


Identify a course, training, or program for the needs assessment

The program to determine a needs assessment cycle changes in college grading changes

in core classes adding the requirements of students sharing to build motivation. The course

program training the needs assessment to gain incentives. To define what is the issues or

problems why students fail classes or do not finish college. Is to evaluate each issue with an

overall analysis of needs assessment. Today's the younger generation focus is different because

of technology that justifies how the mind works. Creating a program that is sophisticated enough

adding technology will help motivate the learner/student creative mind/focus. The program is for

all courses, and training for the needs assessment cycle the Creative Incentives. Creative

Incentive to identify will take the place of the two years core classes breaking it down to one

year learning creatively. The new program will not be the traditional multiple choice style. The

days of force memory straining to remember chapters or a created test by a/any faculty members

are no more.

Identify the purpose

The goal is retaining students to improve society. An intervention program applying new

supported principles in learning and understanding that learners/students tutoring will result in

rewards. The purpose is the creative incentive that will reward the creative minds, the critical

thinker, and the creative potential writer grading student’s performance sharing from day one.

The purpose is to graduate from college planning for a future and not worrying about college

loan when one has worked hard to a degree. The needs assessment is creative incentive

evaluation that is efficient and consistent. Effectively learning for creative incentive deductions

of student loan payments is identifying the purpose. It is also, scholarship give back, and grant

payments are rewarding the authentic grading scale to determine the use. Students sharing and


learning from students is the potentials intervention to tutoring help measures of changes. From

the traditional weak grading scale of memory type testing to the authentic rubric grading

assessment is identifying the purpose. The dramatic improvement in genuine scoring is the

performance difference. It is the needs assessment grant payments of creative incentives rewards

to lower a learner/student financial payments.

Identify level of assessment

The standard of evaluation is to define the steps, and determine the process for creative

incentive performance values. Therefore, it is the adding of rubric break down that will range

around creative knowledge and performances. Writing skill related to the course interpretation,

and the learner/student tutoring per class/course towards a budget that will reward the student

creatively. Therefore, it is assessment survey questions about written assignments focusing on

the course. Also, a rubric evaluation for the identifying of the specific areas of the course. The

levels are in stages of the course the needs assessment will resolve the core class’s status from

two years of core class to building and changing the educational level. Each level of assessment

is of testing that results in retaining the learners/students. The program is all about the creative

transition into the world of evaluation assessments, the innovative analysis that focuses on

performances. The planning in cooperates learning, studying, into creative thinking, for the

useful data on the evaluation, rubric scoring for educational performance.

Identify the stakeholders

To identify the stakeholder is to determine the voluntary givers goals towards educational

donation the donors/investors. Therefore, the participating student parent’s/ guardian’s

investment planner’s educational stakeholder’s solution to reward a college degree. Also, the

faculty members and institution administrators funding education. On the business side, there


are the banks affiliates, the government educational grant investors/sponsors shareholders.

Therefore, the identifying stakeholder’s are the community interested by success, and enterprise

influence by profits, high or low. The stakeholders are the planning interested committees to

determine the budget design around the needed amount of credit each course. “According to the

College Board, the average cost of tuition and fees for the 2015–2016 school year was $32,405 at

private colleges, $9,410 for state residents at public colleges, and $23,893 for out-of-state

residents attending public universities. Grants and scholarships come from the federal

government, one’s state government, one’s college or career school, or a private or nonprofit

organization. (What's the Price Tag for a College Education? 2016.)”

Identify the budget

The budget is the process of the college course schedules. The creative incentive program

is with the same student financial aid program. For the scholarships students that are fully funded

or half or any added learning, it will be the same program plans to lower the learners/ students

degree payment balance. Therefore, the budget to identify is valued around all the deposit for

educational needs and the student/students courses per semester. The plan is to create a balance

implementing the student's creative incentive program to control the amount one will owe after a

degree program. The incentive will back loan with deduction credit payments and for

scholarships a refund potential to the learners/student's fees. “The total amount of financial aid

(federal and nonfederal) is what the student is offered by a college or career school. The school's

financial aid staff combines various forms of aid into a package to help meet a student’s

education costs. Therefore, with the academic years, the made up is a fall and spring semester.

And where a full-time undergraduate student who is expected to complete at least 24 semester

hours, usually called credits or credit hours, over the course of 30 weeks of instructional time


(Federal Student Aid, Financial Aid Package 2016.)” This will be the same with students doing

half-time in school/part time.

“Direct Subsidized Loans - If you are an undergraduate student:

Up to $5,500 per year in Perkins Loans depending on your financial need, the amount of

other aid you receive, and the availability of funds at your college or career school.

$5,500 to $12,500 per year in Direct Subsidized Loans.

Direct Unsubsidized Loans – Direct Unsubsidized Loans depending on certain factors,

including your year in college. If you are a graduate student:

Up to $8,000 each year in Perkins Loans depending on your financial need, the amount of

other aid you receive, and the availability of funds at your college or career school.

Up to $20,500 each year in Direct Unsubsidized Loans.

Grant Payments- Changes yearly. For the 2016–17 award year (July 1, 2016, to June 30,

2017), the maximum award is $5,815. (Federal Student Aid, 2016.)”

Example theory of how loans and credit will be applied This amount could be less or

more depending on course cost, and any other applied credits to the learner’s/students financial

loan payments. Example. Teacher's investment credit, and scholarships, and other credit funded

programs. The Past for fail each credit will be applied because it is an incentive credit with the

plans to provide the necessary training through sharing and the assessment will ensure those

commitments.

Identify available resources

The resources are the students and all course programs Instructors, Professors, Teachers

or Facilitators. The atmosphere is setting, the classroom environment and assessable online

provided version. The course related materials to identify the need assessment areas. An online

communication guides within the technology interest for virtual communication and easy access.

Video exploring, computers for assignment and research, laptops, smartphones, and tablets for

development focus. Student groups/teams meeting, message community planning around new

and prior students. Social media communities to provide an area of communication, and sharing

through the cyber connection.

Identify time allotted for the assessment

The allotted time will be within the college course schedules with adding extra benefit

planning days or hours in the areas of needs. Therefore, it will be per importance semester


winter, spring, and summer course classes. The class’s schedules will be Monday, Wednesday,

or Friday, or a Tuesday, Thursday with 50 minutes per class to identify the college class policies.

Online will have the specifics benefits of a daily 24 hours with the 11:59 Pm cut off per day.

This weekly setting is planned around the 24 hours daily schedule with a bachelor degree three

years and a grad degree one year and a semester adding a 12 months (one year) for doctoral

research for the learner’s/students dissertations.

Identify the specific information you need to measure using the needs assessment

Determining the details information required is identifying the evaluation planning, the

rubric guide scale that measures a learner’s/students writing skills. The assignment questionnaire

setting for the performance skills on decision-making, and the needed planning information for

the programs. The needs assessment cycle to determine the data setting and the technology

needs, the resource needed, and the budget plan for the program. The National Center for

Education Statistic has it where the accurate information is the needs of "all potential technology

users. The measures are the participators in the needs assessment process, including students,

instructional staff, administrative staff, and operations staff. (The National Center for Education

Statistic, 2016.)”

Determine whether information already exists or if information must be obtained from

resources

There are several program that has similar guides and suggested interest. However, there

is no program to compare with the creative incentive student mentoring students as a guide to

teaching each other with performance sharing. Also, to learn from each other and gain rewarded

with incentives that lower a student loan payments the information was not the same concepts.


Creative incentives plans are to changes the way a student is graded, with the process that also

changes to class planning, and course complete time/years and gain loan reduce benefits.

To compare there is “the Gates Millennium Scholars Program, established in 1999, was

initially funded by a $1 billion grant from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. The GMS

Scholarship Award Provides Support for the cost of education by covering unmet need and self-

help aid; Renewable awards for Gates Millennium Scholars maintaining satisfactory academic

progress. (The Gates Millennium Scholars Program, 2016.)”

“There is also, the House Program created by Sydney Cooper the program rewards with a

point scale incentives students from Junior High, 6th – 8th graders a free day playing outside

during our class while the rest of the group continues normal class activities. (The Best Student

Incentive Program Ever, 2016.)”

The “carrot" form of incentives like tuition rebates and loan forgiveness for those who

graduate in four years with an acceptable grade point average. 2004 school year, about 500

students each semester received $250 when they enrolled, $250 after midterms and $500 when

the courses were completed. They had to maintain a C average. The money could be spent on

non-tuition expenses. In 2008, MDRC used grants to launch a larger study that provided

performance-based scholarships to more than 5,600 students for two semesters at about a dozen

two- and four-year colleges, including Lorain County Community College, Owens Community

College and Sinclair Community College in Ohio. The program, for low-income parents,

awarded each $1,800 for an academic year if he or she took at least 12 credits and earned a C or

better, or $900 for those taking six to 11 credits. (College students' success increases when

money motivates them, officials say, 2016.)”


Design the methodology and instrumentation (if necessary) that will measure the course,

training, or program effectiveness.

The instrumentation is the performance evaluation grading needs assessment that will measure

the plan with students sharing knowledge. The training program is participating commitment and

taking responsibility sharing information and gathering data for the efforts that will detail each

course process. Students are the variables key that involved the needs assessment performance

grading. Evaluation is for the intervention rewarding incentive.

(Needs Assessment Cycle, 2016.)

In conclusion, the needs assessment cycle is students sharing accurate information on all

course programs that will be the student's specific majors to accomplish the performance values

and resource need. The evaluation measures value critical thinking sharing creatively without

limits because it provides sharing together for the interest of gaining knowledge that identifies

the need step which is learning together. Student tutoring student on each class or classes is the

assessment cycle needs that is the learner/students degree program budget that will provide the

incentive credits. The use of loans for the programs will be lower as creative incentives credits

apply for the prospective values. Therefore, the grant payments will be used to lower the

student's loans.
