Date:2012
Organization:Community College Research Center (CCRC)
Short Description:CCRC has conducted numerous studies on Dual Enrollment programs over the past five years. In this Dual Enrollment Packet, they synthesize and summarize findings on dual enrollment outcomes, present a case study of how one dual enrollment program increased participation of low-income and underrepresented students, and lay out guiding questions to consider when implementing a dual enrollment program.
Annotation:CCRC has conducted numerous studies on Dual Enrollment programs over the past five years. In this Dual Enrollment Packet, they synthesize and summarize findings on dual enrollment outcomes, present a case study of how one dual enrollment program increased participation of low-income and underrepresented students, and lay out guiding questions to consider when implementing a dual enrollment program. The packet also outlines a research overview answering the following questions: What is dual enrollment? Why dual enrollment? Who benefits from dual enrollment? The overview then looks at the evidence on dual enrollment and concludes with what states and schools can do. In City College of San Francisco Academy and Pathway Dual Enrollment Program, we provide a case study of a dual enrollment program at the City College of San Francisco. The case study describes different aspects of the program, including implementation, student recruitment, enrollment, course offerings, student support services, high school/college collaboration, challenges, and sustainability. Finally, in Implementing a Dual Enrollment Program, we present a list of guiding questions that should be asked at various stages of implementing a dual enrollment program, starting from what to ask when seeking to establish a partnership, to the what should be asked when evaluating the success of the program.
