Achieving the Dream
Using data from Achieving the Dream: Community Colleges Count, this issue looks at student's developmental education needs and outcomes by race and ethnicity. The data indicate that the depth of students' developmental needs varies by race and ethnicity - and that the depth of developmental needs is related to success. Colleges, therefore, would be well served by identifying student groups with high developmental education needs and implementing intervention strategies tailored for them. (Contains 2 figures and 1 footnote.)
