Faculty Student Success Dashboard
Faculty Student Success Dashboard (FSSD) empowers faculty to proactively engage with their students in ways that promote student success across a variety of indicators. This Dashboard is the first tool in its kind in the CSU system. With this Dashboard, faculty at Cal State Fullerton will be able to easily access individual academic performance, progress, and success data (e.g., retention, graduation) of students who enroll in their courses and observe how their work is reflected in overall, as well as individual, student success indicators. This Dashboard aims to increase awareness of the role faculty play in student success. The Dashboard also provides resources to faculty when examining their self-awareness on socio-cultural identities and biases. Faculty SOQ and Graded Class Lists can also be accessed from the Dashboard. Please visit FSSD webpage to learn more about this Dashboard, watch the informational video and the video guides and find answers to your questions via FAQ.

Testing supplies provided for all students
Test-taking is a vital aspect of the higher education experience for our students, and we want to ensure that we empower them with the tools they need to succeed. The Division of Academic Affairs has teamed up with Titan Shops to offer students free blue books and scantrons. We are asking for your assistance in getting these supplies into the hands of your students in time for their quizzes and exams. Your department coordinators will be placing department orders for test taking materials. We ask that you work with them to order the materials you need for your classes and to include information in your syllabi to reflect the availability of these resources. Please allow three days for orders to be ready for pick-up.
Syllabus Tune-Up
As you begin to plan for the start of the semester, please take a moment to “tune-up” your course syllabi. Whether you are building a syllabus from scratch, using a template from your department or college, or recycling a syllabus you have used for years, it is always a good idea to “look under the hood and kick the tires” to make sure your syllabus is “ready for the road!”
Serve as a Faculty Mentor for the University Honors Program
Faculty mentors play a vital role in the development and completion of the Senior Honors project. The Senior Honors project represents the culminating experience of the University Honors program and allows students to work one-on-one throughout the academic year with a faculty member on a topic that they are passionate about. Senior Honors projects can be interdisciplinary research experiences, applied portfolios, or creative projects.
Information about serving as a faculty mentor can be found here and examples of prior Senior Honors projects can be found here. Faculty mentors must be tenure-line faculty (Assistant, Associate, or Full Professors). Interested faculty should fill out this mentor form to be added to our Senior Honors Project mentor database.
