Introduction: The proposed poster will describe the observational data collection methodology and preliminary findings from a large-scale efficacy study examining a corequisite mathematics intervention at the community college level. Specifically, the larger study is conducting a randomized controlled trial of the Carnegie Math Pathways (CMP)…

For the past several years, attention has turned toward reviewing and reframing the curricular pathways in math for students, particularly at the postsecondary level. Focus has shifted not only to math preparedness, but also to redefining the curricular pathways that lead to academic and career success. In higher education, the central principle…

Higher education often operates under old rules -- rules that continue despite an increasingly diverse student population and improved understanding of human behavior and choice. Under these old rules, fewer than half of students graduate on time, if at all, and troubling equity gaps exist based on income, race, and ethnicity. It is time for new…

Two-year colleges are often overlooked in undergraduate education even though they are responsible for educating 37 percent of all college students and over half of the minorities in higher education. In the fall of 1988, the Office of Undergraduate Science, Engineering, and Mathematics Education (USEME) convened a 2-day conference to discuss the…

This report provides an overview and results of a state-level summative review undertaken to examine issues affecting program leaders and planners within the mathematics divisions/departments of Florida's 28 community colleges, make recommendations for changes and funding priorities, identify areas of need, observe trends, and highlight concerns…
