This book was released on 1997 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1894, forty percent of college freshmen enrolled in pre-collegiate programs to prepare for regular college coursework. In Fall 1995, twenty-nine percent of entering freshmen enrolled in at least one remedial course. The debate over the need for, and appropriateness of, remedial/developmental education at the postsecondary level has spanned a century. The upcoming 1998 Reauthorization of the Higher Education Act has added fuel to the debate. Legislators, educators, and the general public are asking questions and raising accountability issues. Who needs remedial/developmental education? Why does the need for it appear to be increasing? How much does it cost? Who should pay for it? Are remedial/developmental programs effective? Who should provide it? Legislators and the public are upset over the perception that they are paying twice for the same education—once in high school and once again in college. Educators are concerned about the potential devaluation of higher education through the provision of large amounts of remedial/developmental education. And students, too, are unhappy with the time and expense necessary to develop English and math skills that they should have learned in high school. Each chapter of this volume addresses a specific policy question involved in the debate over remedial/developmental education and uses national and state data, as well as information from case studies of individual institutions, to provide insights into effective approaches to remedial/developmental education. This is the one hundredth issue of the quarterly journal New Directions for Community Colleges. For more information on the series, please see the Journals and Periodicals section.

This book was released on 2005-04-20 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Developmental education is a core mission of the community college, and approximately 40 percent of entering community college students enroll in one ore more developmental math, English, or reading courses. The existing literature recommends several instructional and organization practices for developmental educators to follow in addressing the needs of those students. Despite the availability of these models, however, community colleges--each facing its own unique combination of students needs and available resources--continue to struggle in their efforts to effectively educate underprepared students and help them move onto and succeed in college-level courses. This volume of New Directions for Community Colleges offers a realistic assessment of the difficulties community colleges face in attempting to assist students who share the common characteristic of being underprepared for college-level work, but whose backgrounds, academic preparation, motivational levels, and goals are extraordinarily varied. The authors discuss the dangers of isolating developmental students, faculty, and curriculum from the broader academic structure of the college. They provide examples of successful programs, and offer a range of recommendations that college administrators can adapt to their campuses and student populations. They also call for additional research on developmental education, especially systematic assessments of existing programs and qualitative research that captures the perceptions of the students for whom these programs are designed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Co-published with and Students need more than just academic skills for success in college and career, and the lack of an explicit instructional focus on the “soft skills” critical to postsecondary success poses a challenge for many students who enter college, especially the underprepared. Based upon a multi-campus, cross-disciplinary collaboration, this book presents the resulting set of habits-of-mind-based strategies that demonstrably help not only low-income, ESL, and first-generation college students overcome obstacles on the path to degree completion; these strategies equally benefit all students. They promote life-long, integrative learning and foster intellectual qualities such as curiosity, openness, flexibility, engagement, and persistence that are the key to developing internalized and transferrable competencies that are seldom given direct attention in college classrooms. This contributed volume, written with full-time and adjunct faculty in mind, provides the rationale for this pedagogical approach and presents the sequential instructional cycle that begins by identifying students’ assets and progressively focusing on specific habits to develop their capacity to transfer their learning to new tasks and situations.Faculty from both two-year and four-year colleges provide examples of how they implement these practices in English, math, and General Education courses, and demonstrate the applicability of these practices across course types and disciplines.Chapters address key factors of college success, including:* The link between habits of mind and student retention and achievement* Using an assets-based approach to teaching and learning* Supporting and engaging students* Creating inclusive learning communities* Building confidence and self-efficacy* Promoting transfer of learning* Teacher networks and cross-disciplinary collaborationBy foregrounding habits of mind as an instructional lens, this book makes a unique contribution to teaching in developmental and general education settings.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the greatest challenges that community colleges face in their efforts to increase graduation rates is improving the success of students in their developmental, or remedial, education programs. This literature review seeks to examine research on developmental education strategies and reforms and identify the most promising approaches for improving developmental education students' success. The key focus is on investigating those strategies with rigorous evidence showing improvements in students' achievement and suggesting areas for future innovations in developmental education practice and research. This analysis focuses on four different types of interventions for improving students' progress through remedial education and into college-level courses, including (1) strategies that help students avoid developmental education and move directly in college-level work; (2) interventions that accelerate students' progress through developmental education; (3) contextualized instructional models that connect students with workforce training and college-level courses; and (4) supplemental supports aimed at improving students' success. The findings from this study suggest that while research on best practices in developmental education abounds, little rigorous research exists that documents the effects of these reforms on students' achievement. The most promising strategies for moving students more quickly through remedial courses and into college-level work tend to be those that: (1) help students build their skills before entering college; (2) integrate students' into college-level courses; and/or (3) provide clear opportunities for the development of occupational and workforce skills. Exploration of more radical approaches to transforming developmental education is also recommended. Finally, suggestions for tackling the institutional challenges to implementing developmental education reforms, such placement tests, adjunct faculty, and professional development, are also provided. List of Journals Reviewed is appended. (Contains 7 tables and 164 footnotes.).
