College
Algebra Project
The primary goal of
the College Algebra Project is to increase the success and retention rates in College
Algebra without compromising access to the course and course standards.
Classes meet four hours per week and feature group work, frequent evaluation,
and closely supervised work with teachers and peer tutors. The project
began as an experimental program in the spring of 1998. In the fall 1998
the project was supported through Title III funding. Support continued until
the 2001-02 academic year when the project was institutionalized and funded
from within the institution. Currently, the College Algebra Team consists of
five faculty members and each one is teaching three sections of college
algebra.
