  1. Workshop on Academic Transformation And Collaboration October 26th 2010 Steve Day Pearson Education

  2. Today’s Agenda • What is the role of Technology in Course Redesign? • What technology tools exist to aid in this process? • Math Redesign Case Study at Jackson State • Different Models of Redesign • Mastering Platform

  3. “They” are not like “us.”

  4. We had . . .

  8. Current Teaching Practices And expectations Skill/Knowledge based Quantitative course focus mostly on skills (or skills that should have been learned in previous course.) Graduation Rates and Teacher Accountability Largely teacher centered (lecture followed by homework – maybe) Highly unsuccessful for many students

  9. What is “Course Redesign?” The process of redesigning the way content of an entire course is delivered, using technology to: • Increase pass rates • Increase retention • Improve return on investment • Save time • Save money • Increase Student engagement in the learning process

  12. What Makes MyMathLab Successful? • 1-01-2010 to 10-20-2010 • 192,519 courses created • 23,703,029 tests and quizzes submitted • 50,817,508 homeworks submitted • 2.2 million unique students • Since September grading 1 million assignments per day! • Used in 85% of All NCAT Math Redesigns!

  13. Jackson State Math Lecture Classes Students uninvolved with their learning Students not responsible for their learning Students must keep up with the class (or stay behind with the class) “I hate math” “I can’t learn math” Math unrelated to major Large numbers of failures and dropouts

  14. Jackson State Math Redesign • Redesign Mandates • Look at the program from top to bottom • Must be modular based • Must have a technology component • Must be individualized • Must have open exit • Must reduce cost • Must raise completion rates

  15. Jackson State Continued http://www.jscc.mylabsplus.com

  16. S MA RT chieve eview aster ransfer urviv e SMART Math Center at Jackson State

  17. Results of Redesign • 2009—reduced the total cost by 20% • Increased the pass rate by 45%

  18. Results Awarded the Bellwether Award for Excellence in Community College Instructional Services and Programs Spring 2010 Given to only one community college annually in each of three categories 100 colleges applied

  19. “Emporium” ModelUniv of Alabama • All classes in computer lab setting • Lab attendance required • Online homework & quizzes • Prerequisite requirements ensure mastery • Students get individualized help when needed • “One room schoolhouse.” Multiple courses at same time

  20. Case Study #1: Univ of Alabama Emporium Model Subsequent Course Completion Rate Success Rates (ABC)

  21. Hybrid ModelFlorence Darlington CC • Blend face-to-face with online videos & exercises • Online self-assessment with immediate feedback • Prerequisite requirements ensure mastery • Self-remediation using Study Plan • 24/7 online learning

  22. Case Study #2: Florence-Darlington Technical College Hybrid Model Subsequent Course Completion Rate Final Exam Scores

  23. Supplemental ModelCollege of Sequoias • Traditional seated classroom • Low-stakes homework & high-stakes quizzes • “Contract” to encourage work outside classroom • Class time: less lecture, more interaction • In-class worksheets; Students “show work”

  24. Case Study #3: College of SequoiasSupplemental Model Required vs Optional Success Rates (ABC)
