Getting Started Off on the Right Foot Using Day 1 Diagnostics Offering Blended Courses Requiring Fewer Steps to Success Logan Maxwell, Mathematics & Engineering Chair Dayna Ford, Developmental Math Director
DAY 1 DIAGNOSTIC Advising/Placement Use in Blended Courses Future Plans
ADVISING/PLACEMENT Current Practice Purpose of Diagnostic Assessment Data Current Practice: TSI placement, flow chart for advisors, pathways Purpose: Discuss why Day 1, test preparedness of students Remedial material mastered (70%) in first three weeks Comment about changes in Spring 2017
DAY 1 DIAGNOSTIC DATA MATH 0340 MATH 1314 MATH 1342 Knowledge Check Enrolled: 59 Attempted Diagnostic: 56 95% participation MATH 1314 Enrolled: 539 Attempted Diagnostic: 495 92% participation MATH 1342 Enrolled: 243 Attempted Diagnostic: 230 95% participation Knowledge Check Initial Successful Completers A B C D/F MATH 0340 52% 59% --- MATH 1314 39% 46% 57% 44% 35% 29% MATH 1342 62% 67% 71% 65% 54% MATH 0340 – not enough data to see significant results
