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 problemFor students who place two levels below a college course
there are 6 “exit points”Do they enroll in the first course?Do they pass the first courseDo 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 8 exit points.

63%
63% x 80% x 63% x 80% x 63%

The Context
National dialogue on developmental education within the Completion Agenda
Collaborative effort CDHE, Complete College America (CCA) $1.0 million dollar grant, and CCCS
History of foundation funding (Lumina, Breaking Through, Scaling Up, OVAE, Bridges to Opportunity)
Round One TAACT grant, designating $5.1 million for developmental education redesign
![Page 9: Marilyn Smith Developmental Education Coordinator CCCS](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062813/568165e8550346895dd9096d/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Creation of a task force
College representationFaculty + others (student services, administration, testing,
advising…)Charged with creating policy for the system
![Page 10: Marilyn Smith Developmental Education Coordinator CCCS](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062813/568165e8550346895dd9096d/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
The goal of the redesign
.A developmental education redesign that will move
students quickly and effectively (and successfully) through their first college level course.

National models considered
Washington State - iBestTennessee – emporium Los Medinos - acceleration in mathCommunity College Baltimore County - ALPChabot College – Integrated reading and EnglishUniversity of Texas - new mathwaysAustin Peay State - mainstreaming

February 2013CCCS Board approves the
Task Force recommendations
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.

What “Redesign” looks likeMath – pathways at the developmental level
AlgebraNon-Algebra (statistics and math for liberal arts)Non-transfer (career math, clinical calculations)Mainstreaming with supplemental instruction when possible
College Composition and Reading (formerly reading and English)Integrated disciplinesOptions for delivery (CCR 092 0r CCR 093 or CCR 094)Mainstreaming when possibleTiers of student support in classrooms

Testing New placement tool is at least a year out
Working with Pearson but also exploring other vendors Developing a specification list to post as an RFPPARCC

Student supportUse CCCSE practices
OrientationGoal setting and planningNo late registrationsFirst year experienceStudent success courseTutoringSupplemental instructionCase management/academic advising/career coaches
College develop a plan to use for planning, initiating, and sustaining success for developmental students

Overall Strategies Courses embody specific principles
Acceleration Mainstreaming Contextualization Career Pathways (Programs of Study) Integration of English and reading
Placement New test, aligned with curriculum Non-cognitive questions System administrator for norming and for consistency of testing policies
Student Services—CCCSE plan of promising practices Professional development for faculty and staff Plan for ongoing assessment built into model
![Page 19: Marilyn Smith Developmental Education Coordinator CCCS](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062813/568165e8550346895dd9096d/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Math All students in college algebra track Four course, four semesters, 13 credits in MAT
English and Reading Three courses, three semester, 8 credits in ENG Three courses, three semesters, 8 credits in REA Courses taught separately
Math Students choose math pathway based on career
choice—algebraic literacy with path to college algebra, quantitative literacy with path to statistics, math for liberal arts, or career math,
One developmental course before the college level course for most students
Some students mainstreamed into college level course with just-in-time remediation through support courses
English and Reading Composition and reading integrated into one course One developmental course before the college level
course Many students mainstreamed into college level
course using the ALP model

Student Services Many distinct, unconnected services made
available for students
Testing Test not connected to Colorado content Local administration of tests—different policies
about number of times, cost etc Placement determined only by content questions
Student Services Services provided to students within the
framework of a plan —intentional intervention
Testing Content aligned to course taught at Colorado
community colleges System level administrator to allow norming of
test and consistence of testing practices Addition of non-cognitive questions to content
questions

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 courseIn English and Reading – Successful completion of any
college level (100+) English course or any college level discipline strands course.
Cohort tracking – how many are completing college courses?

Implementation teamsCore implementation team
Faculty Focused on curriculum, content, training, and professional
developmentRedesign advisory process
Administrative (Banner, fiscal, advising, financial aid)Testing – faculty for content. Testing center directors when
we have a platform to experiment with.

Timeline Spring/summer 2013: discipline team developed
curriculum and created professional development training for faculty and staff
Fall of 2013: schools who were already working on redesign ramped up projects
Spring 2014: all colleges transition to the new modelsPCC, TSJC, NJC, CNCC, LCC, and OJC are in full
implementation for spring 2014Fall of 2014: all colleges will be operating with the new
models in place
