Developmental Education RedesignAN OVERVIEW
![Page 2: AEFLA program directors conference july 2013](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070317/55620c38d8b42a7d028b4bcb/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
The problem
“The more levels of developmental courses a student needs to go through, the less likely
that student is to ever complete college English or math.”
Thomas Bailey (2009) CCRC Brief.

Why high attrition rates are a structural problem
• For students who place two levels below a college course there are five “exit points”
• Do they pass the first course
• Do they enroll in the next course?
• Do they pass the second course?
• Do they enroll in the college-level course?
• Do they pass the college-level course?
• Students placing three levels down have 7 exit points.

Why high attrition rates are a structural problem
• CCCS example for students who completed ENG 030 - fall 2010
• Completed 030 (538) 100%
• Do they enroll and complete 060 (189) 35%
• Do they enroll in and complete 090 (32) 6%

The goal of the redesign
Move students quickly and
effectively through their first
college level course.

Board adopted policy in February 2013
To accelerate students by reducing the
amount of time, number of developmental
credits, and number of courses in the
developmental sequence so students can
have access to and be supported for success
in a college level course.

The new design
• Math – pathways at the developmental level
• Algebra
• Non-Algebra (statistics and math for liberal arts)
• Non-transfer (career math, clinical calculations)
• College Composition and Reading (formerly reading and English)
• Integrated disciplines
• Tiers of student support in classrooms
![Page 9: AEFLA program directors conference july 2013](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070317/55620c38d8b42a7d028b4bcb/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Affective Support
• Use CCCSE practices: Examples
• Orientation
• Goal setting and planning
• No late registrations
• First year experience
• Student success course
• Tutoring
• Supplemental instruction
• Case management/academic advising/career coaches

Measures of Success
• Successful developmental students and programs should be measured in the following ways:
• In Math – Successful completion of any college level (100+) math course
• In English and Reading – Successful completion of any college level (100+) English course or any college level discipline strands course.

Outcomes
• How many students successfully complete college English or college math?
• Used to only measure course completion
• Cohort tracking – how many are completing college courses?

Timeline
• Spring/summer 13 discipline team work to develop curriculum and to create professional development training for faculty and staff
• Fall of 13 schools that are already working on redesign will ramp up projects
• Spring 14 all colleges should transition to the new models
• Fall of 14 all colleges should be operating with the new models in place
