Define Course Redesign-  In its proposed 2012-2017 Statewide Developmental Education Plan, the Coordinating Board set forth the following vision: http://www.thecb.state.tx.us/index.cfm?objectid=233A17 D9-F3D3-BFAD-D5A76CDD8AADD1E3  VISION STATEMENT: By fall 2017, Texas will significantly improve the success of underprepared students by addressing their individualized needs through reliable diagnostic assessment, comprehensive support services, and non- traditional interventions, to include modular, mainstreaming, non-course competency-based, technologically-based, and integrated instructional models.

Purpose What is can faculty use to help students be more successful in online instruction and face to face lecture classes? The challenges from high school to college manifest in acute outcomes, placing from 30% to over 50% of college freshman in developmental math. The developmental curriculum at San Jacinto College is incorporating study skills in a program called GUST. These classes are designed to assist first year college students with study skills if they enroll in a developmental class (Math or Integrated Reading/Writing). These study skills need to be reinforced in all courses. Research is showing that more and more students are entering college without any study skills. Why is this happening? San Jacinto College will show how things are working and how some things are not working and need to be redesigned.

San Jacinto Course Offerings  Fast Track (8 weeks)  Online (Changed to 80-20% meetings)  Hybrid (Meet once a week)  AIM (Acceleration in Math)  Stats AIM (Fall 2015)- ASAP  Traditional (16 weeks or Summer 5 ½ weeks)  Mini-mester (May and December- 3 weeks)
