Student Success
In Fall 2007, 51 of students enrolled in Math
112 earned a C or higher

• Math Lab online homework is offered through the
  textbook publisher in Math 112 to provide
  immediate feedback to students on homework as
  well as learning assessments to instructors
• All Math 112 AND 122 sections will be using My
  Lab online this spring
• Academic Success programs recruit for
  participation. Can we create greater levels of
  seamless early intervention with the Study
  Skills, Math and Stats Tutoring and Writing
  Centers?

• Focus group data indicate that our students are
  not aware of learning outcomes
