Tenn. Board of Regents (Schutz & Tingle) Strong positive impact on course success Strong positive impact on next course success
Harvard University (Boatman) “Among those enrolled in developmental math,
however, students completed an average of 3.3 credits more of their attempted credits (or an average of one course) than their peers assigned to college-level math.”
“At Cleveland State, the redesigned courses led to more college-level credits after two years.”

Cleveland State Redesign◦ TBR and UF studies found that gender and race were
no longer factors in predicting course success – achievement gaps were closed
Chattanooga State Redesign◦ Low – income students tracked and compared to all
students in terms of course success, accelerated learning, and fall to spring retention
◦ No gaps were found, low-income students performed as well as other students across the board in all areas

Getting students to Do the Math
Helping Struggling Students
Making Sure They Learn the Material – Mastery Learning
I believe that mastery learning is the critical missing link in the education of low achievers.
Patricia K. Cross, 1976 Accent on Learning
