Corequisite Design: 4 BIG Decisions

• 1. Which co-requisite model will you use?

Notes run here in Arial Regular 6 pt

Dev Credit-level course Dev Credit-level course Credit-level course Full, Concurrent Dev Course Credit-level course

Consecutive

1 – 2 hr support course before credit-level course 8 weeks of dev math before 8 weeks of credit-level course A 1 – 2 hr support lab/review course for just-in-time dev

Concurrent

Students take a full college course with a full developmental course at the same time

• 2. How much time do

you have?

Will the support course be:

• a full developmental course? (3

hours)

• less time than a full course?

(1 - 2 hour course or lab)

Co-mingle: The credit-level course has a mix of college-ready students and developmental level students. Cohort: The credit-level course is comprised of students who are all also developmental level students.

• 3. Who are the students?

At what developmental level will the students be?

Different instructors for each, with their own separate gradebooks?

• 4. Who is teaching each course?

If taught by different instructors, will instructors coordinate or mainly work separately? And will students be getting two grades, requiring two separate gradebooks online?

The same instructor teaches both. Dev Math support College credit course Dev Math support College credit course

Same instructor for both college and dev math courses? And will students be getting two grades, requiring two separate gradebooks online?

Engage your Students

Learning Catalytics™ helps instructors generate class discussion, guide their lectures, and promote peer- to-peer learning with real- time analytics. Now available through MyLab Math, Learning Catalytics is an interactive student response tool that uses students’ smartphones, tablets, or laptops to engage them in more sophisticated tasks and thinking.

Learning Catalytics

Internet-based Chapter Projects, with assignable exercises in MyLab Math, enable students to learn by doing and have fun in the

• process. By exploring and

considering a variety of carefully guided “what-if” scenarios, they will develop a better understanding of the concepts presented in the section.

Cooperative Activities

Challenge Problems now appear in most Exercise sets at the end of Applications and Extensions. Challenge Problems are thought-provoking and require some ingenuity to solve. They can be used for group work or to challenge students.

Aida

Aida Aida™ Calculus is the first tutoring app that gives feedback on your steps and guides you to the solution through personalized hints, videos, and examples. Go beyond the final answer and really understand how to solve the problem. Learn more about Aida

MyLab Features to help with coreq management

Student Tags: Student tagging allows you to create distinct student categories. Once grouped, you may assign specific assignments, communicate with, and manage gradebook data for each student group. If you are planning or teaching a corequisite Math or Statistics course, Student Tagging will provide an additional level of flexibility in managing courses with mixed groups of students.

Adding Student Tags

Assignment Tagging

Assignment Tags: Assignment tagging allows you to create distinct assignment groups. You may filter by the assignment tag to simplify gradebook and assignment management. If you are planning or teaching a corequisite Math or Statistics course, Assignment Tagging will provide an additional level of flexibility in managing and assigning assignments to specific groups of students in a mixed level course.

Adding Assignment Tags

Enhanced question search allows you to search for additional questions by learning objectives across all available titles.

Prepare your Students

Skill Builder: a blend of learning design & data analytics

With Skill Builder assignments, students that need additional help get the just-in-time, targeted assistance on the necessary pre- requisite skills to answer the target problem you selected. Additionally, Skill Builder questions have been adapted based on how the student is doing on this particular assignment and the entire course thus far. Therefore, the student is getting personalized, direct attention to gain the necessary skills the student will need to answer the target level questions.

Note: Skill Builder is not available with all texts. Ask your local sales rep for more information.

Question is incorrect on final check Go to Skill Builder

Note: A student can enter and exit Skill Builder at any time.

Skill Builder

• Consider limiting the use of other learning aids.
• Consider giving a Diagnostic Assignment at the

beginning of the semester so that the system can start adjusting the student profile.

• Use 15-20 questions per assignment.
• Pre-req mapping is limited to the contents of the text.

Choose an Integrated Review text when using Skill builder to support additional mapping.

• Use Skill Builder in conjunction with other adaptive

learning tools.

Some key things to know

• Change Weights so your grading categories and percentages are in

alignment with your course. Don’t forget to Manage Incompletes.

• Use Gradebook Tools to communicate with students, Drop Lowest

Scores, add offline items, and more.

• Access grade reports including Item Analysis & Quick Exports about

student performance.

Skill Builder Alerts

The Skill Builder alerts table shows you the sections or objectives that your students are struggling with and lists how struggling students performed on each. Section/Objective - Lists the section and, if applicable, the objective in your textbook that was challenging to

• students. Click the dropdown toggler to see a list of students who are struggling with the material in your course.

Check the box next to the section or objective to email all the students who are having difficulties with it. Skill Builder Level - Shows the skill level the student has achieved. Only students with low or moderate skill levels are listed. You can check the box next to a student's name to email the student.

Are you looking for some graphical displays of student performance? To access the Performance Analytics dashboard, click the link from your main Gradebook page.

Use the drop-down menu at the top left to select the courses for which you wish to view results. You can select more than one course. You can see courses that are inactive (previous courses) as well!
