阀杆 Guided Pathways and Transformational Teaching Practices
2016年，美国经济增长放缓.S Department of Education awarded 立博 a 5-year, Hispanic Serving Institution Title III 阀杆 Grant to fund enhanced community college experiences for students from diverse backgrounds who are interested in careers in allied health, engineering, chemistry, biology, and physics. Through a series of longitudinal timed supports, 阀杆 Guided Pathways Scholars received support services designed to develop the academic and professional skills necessary to succeed in community college and transfer to a 阀杆 baccalaureate program. Additionally, HSI funding allowed for the expansion of and refurbishment of 阀杆 classrooms and the purchase of equipment to increase capacity, as well as training and development for faculty to expand equity minded, project-based learning practices across 阀杆 disciplines.
目标
The 立博 阀杆 Guided Pathways interventions are designed to increase Hispanic and low-income student academic success and persistence in science and engineering transfer degree programs. The expected long-term outcomes for the grant project are:
- Increase in the number of Hispanic and low-income full-time 阀杆 field degree-seeking undergraduate students enrolled.
- Increase in the percentage of Hispanic and low-income first-time, full-time 阀杆 field degree-seeking undergraduate students who persist from the first fall to the next 在阀杆研究中.
- Increase the percentage of Hispanic and low-income students transferring successfully to a four-year institution from a two-year institution within three years of first 进入.
- Increase in the percentage of students who complete 阀杆 degree courses with a "C" 或更好的.
