Questions to understand the "complex ecology" of pre-college mathematics
Program Plan
Highline Community College is in the process of fundamentally redesigning the content and structure of its pre-college curriculum to accomplish three things:
Reduce the number of pre-college courses needed by most students from three courses to two courses
Ensure the mathematical content is truly relevant to student's career, academic and life goals
Actively help students develop college-readiness skills, including successful learning habits and attitudes
The grant will fund a lead-instructor model of instruction and faculty inquiry groups to institutionalize data-driven, evidence-based decision making about teaching practices that lead to high student achievement.
