The Impact of AB 705
This webinar digs into recent research on the impact of AB 705 and related reforms on equity, STEM, and longitudinal outcomes, such as graduation rates and wage earning, with particular attention to the implications of colleges continuing to enroll students in pre-transfer-level math.
How did the pandemic affect math completion?
Does pre-transfer level math enrollment help or hurt equity?
Would students who failed transfer-level math have been better off in pre-transfer-level math?
Is intermediate algebra the best option for STEM students who have not passed high school Algebra 2?
What can we learn from a randomized, controlled experiment in New York’s community colleges about the impact of taking Statistics with corequisite support on longitudinal outcomes, such as completion of science courses, graduation rates and wage earning?
