Preparing for Shortened Academic Terms. A Guide
Fladd, Laurie; Iuzzini, Jon; Lawton, Julia
Achieving the Dream
As colleges focus more on centering equity in their structures, processes, and policies on campus, they are re-examining operations inside and outside the classroom. They are looking to better serve and support traditional community college students in creative and innovative ways. Deconstructing the semester structure changes how classes are offered to students, giving them more flexibility and more continuous on-ramps. This helps support and accelerate students toward a credential of value. Achieving the Dream developed this guide to support the growing number of institutions across the country that are shifting to scheduling courses in shorter academic terms. This guide is shaped by the experiences of colleges that have made this transition.
