Corequisite Learning Support: Placement and Outcomes by Students' Race and Ethnicity. Working Paper #3
Tennessee Board of Regents - The College System of Tennessee
Tennessee's community colleges are committed to reducing equity gaps. According to the Tennessee Board of Regents' (TBR) equity policy, this commitment means "ensuring that each student has access to a high-quality education and that each student receives what they need to be successful through the intentional design of the college experience" (TBR, 2019b). To meet the needs of each student, Tennessee community colleges provide learning support for students in gateway courses. With the introduction of systemwide corequisite learning support in 2015, Tennessee hoped to increase the number of students completing college-level courses in their first year. Upon enrolling at a Tennessee community college, all students have the opportunity to enroll directly in college-level gateway courses. Some students are also placed into a corequisite learning support course alongside the college-level course. This paper will seek to further understand placement and outcomes by Black, Hispanic, and White students since corequisite learning support reforms were implemented at community colleges across Tennessee in fall 2015. [The Education Commission of the States' "Strong Start to Finish" network supported this project.]
