- Summary:
-
This document presents a detailed description of a successful federally-funded developmental education program at Cochise College (Arizona). It includes a statement of philosophy, and sections on program structure, individual student needs, classroom instruction, skill development, special activities, evaluation, student characteristics, and budget information. The students are characterized by D+ high school averages, reading levels from fifth to ninth grade, and come from predominantly large, Spanish-speaking families with incomes under $8,000. Students are recruited, and are assisted with financial aid, part-time employment, paraprofessional tutors, and counseling. Classroom instruction includes the use of media, problem-solving groups, group discussions, oral student reports, individualized laboratory instruction, peer group tutoring, and reinforcement teaching. All lectures are videotaped for absent students. Grading procedures eliminate failure, and emphasis is put on the student staying in the program. Pre- and post-testing evaluation is used for determining student progress. Special activities include trips, cultural experiences, and parent participation days. (RT)
