Background: DEDP Grant
Background: DEDP Grant
• Developmental Education Demonstration Projects (DEDP)– 5 Texas colleges received a DEDP grant from the Texas
Higher Education Coordinating Board (THECB) in July 2010– Montgomery College is the only single-college campus to
receive funding
• Goal of the DEDP Grant: – To accelerate and encourage students’ progress and success in
the developmental sequence and support their transition into credit-bearing academic/technical certification programs or degrees

Question: Are we helping or hurting students via accelerated and integrated course delivery?
Response:
• Although the pilot is small, initial data appears to show that students in the accelerated courses are maintaining the same completion and success rate as those who are completing DE ENGL through separate, semester long, reading and writing courses.

ENGL 0309 THEA-IBT Pre/Post Scores
Summary:• 3 sections of ENGL 0309 offered Fall 2011
(Instructors- Dr. Lana Myers, Dr. Lori Hughes, and Elizabeth Pena)
• 44 students took Pre-test• 4 students tested out of DEV ENGL and were given
the option to move to ENGL 1301.• 1 of the 4 students enrolled in ENGL 1301.
• 29 students took Post-test
• 27 students eligible for incentive
• Reading score avg. increased by +18.12 points.
• Writing score avg. increased by +37.71 points.
• Skill Area improvements:• DEV ENGL instructors focused on the four skills
areas with lowest avg. scores.• Instructors collaborated, developed, and shared
lesson plans to address skill development in areas: Word Meaning, Critical Reasoning, Mechanics, and Effective Sentences.
• THEA-IBT Pre-Testing project is in progress for all 3 sections of ENGL 0309 during Spring 2012.

Comments• There was a distinct difference for the spring 2011 semester because the
students were NOT interviewed prior to signing up for the class. Students who signed up for the course in fall 2010 were interviewed. We feel this had a major negative impact on the spring 2011 courses as many students signed up hoping this course would not require strict attendance and would be easier than a regular face-to-face course.
• Because of the problems encountered by removing the step of interviewing students for individualized instruction Math 0312, we have moved back to this requirement for fall 2011. Two LSC-Montgomery full-time Developmental Math faculty have been designated Math 0312 interviewers. They meet with and interview all students who are interested in signing up for Math 0312.

Intervention: Individualized Instruction-Math 0312 Initial
Review Fall 2011
• Above data represents the number of students who successfully completed a particular level in the individualized instruction math classes. It does not show the number of students who completed two or three levels of developmental math in one semester. Data is being analyzed and will be available mid-March 2012.
• Math 0312 was created for two different student groups: 1. Students who want to complete more than one level in one semester and; 2. Students who need more than one semester to master one level. There are some students who need more time to master the concepts and 0312 allows them to spend more time where needed so that they can master the material.
• The IPs listed can be misleading. Most students who earned an IP are the students who need extra time to master the material for one level of developmental math. Most of those students have registered for individualized instruction in Spring 2012 and will continue where they left off in Fall 2011. We are currently looking at the numbers for the students who received an IP in Fall 2011 Math 0312 in order to measure persistence/retention rates for Spring 2012 for Math 0312.
• A comprehensive data analysis of Math 0312 is currently in progress and should be completed in late spring 2012.

Intervention: THEA IBT Re-Testing
THEA-IBT Retesting
Goal: Pay for students to retake THEA-IBT and score high enough to test out of DEV ED.
Activities: • Case managers and instructors recommend
students re-take THEA-IBT.• DEDP funds used to purchase THEA-IBT units.
Outcome: • 16 students skipped 1 DEV ED course• 2 students skipped 2 DEV ED courses• $2,862 = Total tuition savings of 18
students*• Time Saved-Opportunity for students to
enroll immediately into college level courses
Other Considerations:• Retention Rate • Operational cost savings• Cost = $812 ($29/unit * 28)
*based on in-district tuition $159 per 3 credit hours, page 39 of LSCS 2010-2011 catalog.
