Developmental Mathematics Redesign: Placement, Mathematics, Study Skills, and Teamwork March 10, 2013Innovations 2013Dallas, Texas Dr. Tamara Carter and Dr. Max Simmons, Oklahoma City Community College A Student’s Reflection Entering this class I was totally frightened about my chances at success. I’ve never been a good math student at all. But the way the class is set up totally allows you to succeed. They have all the resources readily available for any and all at any given time. It’s simply a matter of applying yourself. If you’ll do that you can’t fail with the way they implement the program. It’s been a real pleasure getting my feet wet while moving in a positive direction towards College Algebra. Thanks sincerely.
